Getting married on Saturday. I've been really chilled about everything so far and have not been demanding, rude or uppity with anyone about anything (honest!).

It's a relaxed do with no table plan, no formal meal, speeches, etc.

I've bought three wedding dresses (cheepo ones) - all rather complicated because I lost my baby so wasn't going to be as fat as intended.

I've since been in a really dark place but now out the other side again. Ish. Although now the groom has tonsillitis and is horribly poorly.

Anyway, there's my background. Here's my aibu. Well, I know iabu but I want to get over it.

I've spent a fortune on disposable cameras and my plan is to develop them and distribute photos to the relevant people. A family member has said that it's unreasonable for me to request that people don't put photos on facebook or take pictures on their phones. The groom doesn't even have facebook so doesn't want his pictures published anyway. A friend then said she would fill a whole disposable camera up with selfies of herself so I have to get them all printed (expensive!!)

My reasoning... At my hen do on Saturday, it felt like people spent more time taking selfies, editing pictures, posting pictures than actually connecting amd engaging with each other.

I really don't want photos all over everyone's phones. That's it. Please be kind because I'm really upset about this its very rare that I get upset or annoyed about anything.also very rare that I ever stand up for myself I wish I never bought the disposable cameras in the first place now!

Calm now Brew I've worked with a friend on an 'i spy' chalkboard with stuff like 'People laughing' and have set up an email address with my new surname for people to send pictures to.
I wrote at the bottom 'snap it, send it and we will share it'
Whatever happens, happens

Groom is still bedridden!! We are going away today and setting up the venue tomorrow!
The house is a state as I was away for my hen this weekend. Anyone fancy pitching in? Blush

Enjoy it all Chelle - my advice to anyone before their big day.
Forget the house until you get back!
