Wow! That is pretty shocking! All I can add to this is that brides to be tend to lose their minds when planning weddings and maybe she's just not thinking clearly. I remember breaking down and crying in front of all my friends when a pair of scissors wouldn't work for me. It was 3 weeks before the wedding. I am sure they thought I was nuts! LOL Anyways hang in there! I have been in only two (family) weddings in my life and I have lots of friends. I just figure hey less money you have to spend!
