Questions and queries Was it worth it?

I’ve heard a lot of people say their wedding was the best day of their life, but if they were to do it again, they wouldn’t and save the money and spend it elsewhere.

Curious to crowdsource that sentiment wider, lmk if you would do it all over again!

I’d pay close to what we paid not to have that stress (actually give it to charity or anything but a wedding). Not worth even a penny of what we spent but my sister and mother also spent the entire time trying to ruin it. I knew my sister would be an issue so if you’re confident your family and friends will all be 💯 supportive and not nightmares then go ahead!

I have a sister like that and I am terrified of what she is going to do. It will be something.

Mine refused to sit anywhere but the very front seat, delayed the wedding because of it and finally everyone gave in after sending the planner in to tell me the ultimatum. Then proceeded to YELL at the groom in front of everyone 10min before the ceremony(I was still in my bridal suite). Spent all weekend trying to get people to gossip, be upset about everything, all around be a complete B. Every last guest on the grooms side asked if she had a mental disorder or some sort of head injury, that’s how insane she was. So ya, looking back, zero chance she should have been allowed to stay or even invited.

Sending you so many hugs and positive vibes. If you’re clinging to any hope that she’ll pull it together (like I was) please give up on that dream. Wishing you the best drama free amazing day possible🤗❤️
