I'm having it and have offered to pay, but they are refusing and keep telling me I'm being ridiculous.

I thought it would be a nice treat for them and they would look a bit better in the photos.

My maid of honour has pissed me off too. I bought her some 'chicken fillets' because her boobs aren't big enough for the dress to look good, but she's refusing to wear them. I offered to buy her a boob job but she laughed at me, thought it might have been a nicer wedding favour than a crappy necklace she'll never wear again or something.

Anyway, I'll be seeing them all at the surprise tooth whitening party I've organised for this weekend so can try and fight it out then.

It's my day , why are they trying to wreck things for me?

You're the one that wanted everyone to wear pink, aren't you?

mazzystar · 30/07/2008 12:45

have you had your lipo done yet?
and has anyone ordered the doves?

maidamess · 30/07/2008 12:46

I would love to come to your wedding!

Kassius · 30/07/2008 12:46

you know what i dont understand?
everyone keeps saying that the trolling goes thru the roof in the holidays, and i can see thats the case now, but why? surely these no hopers have less time on their hands as their kids are off school and need entertaining?

LilRedWG · 30/07/2008 12:47

LOL

HuwEdwards · 30/07/2008 12:47

lololol @ teeth whitening party!

If I come to your wedding, will you foot the bill for a boob job for me?

Thanks hun!

Dynamicnanny · 30/07/2008 12:48

It's the kids innit

HonoriaGlossop · 30/07/2008 12:48

I'll come round and break all their noses so you can have them re-set in more pleasing shapes

surprised you didn't think of this

Do you want your guests to ruin the photos by all having noses of different SIZES? Come on, I don't think you have a handle on this planning yet

RuffleTheAnimal · 30/07/2008 12:48

maybe they are the kids kasius

Love2bake · 30/07/2008 12:48

Please tell us this is wind-up.

poshtottie · 30/07/2008 12:48

Are you a wag?

onepieceoflollipop · 30/07/2008 12:49

just get the photographer to airbrush the pictures.

HuwEdwards · 30/07/2008 12:49

Love2bake, are you really in any doubt?

preggersplayspop · 30/07/2008 12:50

Ha ha ha

Some people are so unreasonable aren't they?

What about the groom? There must be some procedures you could do to make him better looking for the photos.

onepieceoflollipop · 30/07/2008 12:50

Why not send your mum and mil a crate of Slimfast round too so that they are lovely and slim for your special day.

citronella · 30/07/2008 12:50

Are you serious? It IS your day but I think I would respect their feelings where invasive intervention is concerned...

mamadiva · 30/07/2008 12:50

This is soo that pink lady again!

Perhaps they don't want to hurt your feelings by getting Botox because then you'll see how bad you really look in your photos

Kassius · 30/07/2008 12:51

i did wonder if maybe its the kids, but i dont think so. i think youd have to be a mner to know the buttons to push iysim?

If you pay for my botox I am willing to be your mother for the day.

citronella · 30/07/2008 12:52

Oh Duh

mamadiva · 30/07/2008 12:53

Trolls can be funny OCCASSIONALLY but not so much when it's basically the same subject everytime!
