| Ok, we are 44 days away, I am getting stressed with the groomsman. I wanted some help with our programs, as they are proving to be alot if work. It was like pulling teeth to get anyone to help... best man came over and helped a little, but mostly goofed off while he was here, the two GM couldn't... one was on the highway on his way to kitchener, ok fine, but the other one was with his girlfriend, with whom he spends ALL of his time with now... So he wasn't available to come over and help. This GM, W we'll call him, who has the new girlfriend, skipped out on BOTH our engagement party and our stag and doe. I am getting a little sick of it. Today was the day people had to book rooms in Kingston by or they'd be let go. Well I called W today to see if he booked a room forthe three GM, and he said "Oh yea I called and they said they have no more rooms" But he didn't even seem to care! So I called and I booked the room for them. They are moving people around for me because I was told I should have rooms blocked off until today.... but the point is, that I was the one hwo had to figure it out... Also I was informed today that GM #2, we'll call him B, has some other engagement to attend on the friday before the wedding... He is suposed to be picking up the tuxes and driving to Kingston on Friday so they cal all attend the rehearsal. And I cannot get ahold of him. These three guys were so excited to be in the wedding party, and now they dont' care, they make other plans, blow me off when I ask for help and make comments like "why, this is your dream not ours" And yes, BM said this to me yesterday when I called to ask for help with the programs... I am fcuking pissed about all of this and just need to vent, so thanks for reading. It is too late to replace them and we have the tuxes ordered. WHICH by the way, Alex and I paid the deposts on, they STILL have not gone to pay for the rest... We ordered them in January...

| Ugh, jerks! If they agreed to be in the wedding, they should fullfill thier obligations, plain and simple! I would understand if you were being a bridezilla, but everything you said seems perfectly reasonable to me. Maybe you should return thier gifts muhaha lol jk Have you talked to your fh? I'm assuming they are his friends right?

sorry to hear it...vent your little heart away my dear. Is there other people who could help you with the programs? Maybe you'll just have to be firmer with them and lay out their expectations/jobs and state that they are very important and need to get done. Also, may your FH could talk to them all together and see what they are actually feeling about the wedding. I hope it gets better for you

| I sympathize with your situation and hope, hope, hope that they get their act together before the wedding. I can relate because we're going through exactly the same thing with ours. The girls have been fabulous but the guys SUCK. They have truly done sweet bugger all and really could care less. There is one thing I've learned from the wedding planning process is that my expectations of other people were originally too high ... sad but true. So rather than staying upset and pissed off I just keep telling myself that "I'm excited, FH is excited and that's all that really matters!" My fingers are crossed for you And I agree with the PP ... what goes around, does comes around. Karma, baby!

Oh Jeni, I'm so sorry to hear about the hassle these guys are giving you! I wish I lived closer, I'd totally come over and help. Big HUGS, you're almost there!

| Sorry about this.. it must suck! I have no one at all helping me! As all the GM are not 3 hrs away and are always very busy people.. but we expected that. The only BM round here as well, is trying her hardest. Again--we expected that though... lol! Hope it all works out and they get their acts together soon!!! GL!

That sucks! I have heard GM can be frustrating! My wedding is the other way around lol, the GM are all super awesome, it almost seems like they care more about the wedding than we do! Lol! And the bridesmaids aren't too bad, but a lot less reliable. Hope everything goes well for you!
