This is 007girl's Chocolate Wedding!

We have 2 groom’s men, 1 best man and 1 master of ceremonies.

My poor sister who is going through her own personnel stuff (I can’t give details but it's brutal) is trying so hard to plan our Jack and Jill with our help of course. The best man has not responded to both of the planning emails my sister has sent out or a phone message she left for him as a last attempt at communication.

Groom #1 has behaved in the exact same way... I even called him and asked him very nicely to give my sister a call. He said “for sure no problem I will call her as soon as we hang up and he never called!

Groom#2 lives in the Yukon so I completely understand that he can’t be involved and that's totally okay but our MC is working my last nerve... He came to our planning meeting which was great but the whole time... he was rolling his eyes and seemed put out to even be there... I felt like saying “this is the one chance you get to show your friend how much you appreciate his friendship and this is how you do it"

We are hosting a BBQ next weekend to pull together last minute details for the Jack & Jill. My sister sent the email out yesterday and our MC replied with "I quote"

"I can’t make it"

Jeff

That's it; nothing else....could he not have wrote something like.. "Sorry guys I'm tied up" or "Hey Ive been crazy busy at work and need to chill that weekend"!

Wow... call me crazy here but I don’t think I am being overly sensitive ... I think all 3 of them are unbelievably shitty friends.

Any thoughts ladies????

Help Ladies!!!

My wedding party came over to my house for a Jack & Jill planning session a few months ago.... I was impressed with how organized everybody was!

However... there is one teensy weensy minor problem WE DONT HAVE A VENUE BOOKED YET!!!... and the Jack & Jill is fast approaching... yikes!!!!

If any of you have some cost effetive tip's I would really, really appreciate any and all suggestions!

Places my MOH has sourced included:

Parks & Rec ~ "All in" .Ie Socan fees, building insurance, etc... the average cost is about $800. Tthe place in our area is great but it's a little more then we wanted to spend especially for a 1970's style space with zero decor :-(

The Legion~ will not allow gambling and the places in our area are booked solid. They have offered the club room but that would mean that it's open to the general public..... :-(

Local Bar/ Lounges- most wanted a cut of our ticket sales and the bar goes in their pocket....Which we understand but it's a fundraiser!

~Cheers
