imo the bride is right!
a wedding is no place for a 6 month old. have the baby sit on grandmas lap during church. they shouldnt be bringing the baby to the reception either.
ITA!!

Re: How over wedding planning are you?
over it. but enjoying watching my SIL go through all the emotions and planning, and helping her out where I can....like telling her not to spend a lot on shoes b/c no one sees your feet and then freaking out after seeing THE perfect pair for her at JCrew for $130. She bought them. My fault! LOL But LOOK how gorgeous: Image Attachment(s):

Re: How over wedding planning are you?
My cousin brought my nephew who was a few months old - it didn't bother me as long as they didn't mind taking care of him. And, I think little ones look adorable going down the aisle so it's really up to each couple.

ok, but my point is that if her FH wants this why argue about it? is it really worth arguing about when you have a lifetime of being together and FAR more important things to argue about?
well, then there should be some sort of compromise. Have the baby at the church and some pics, but NOT at the reception. DH and I wanted no kids at our wedding.
oh i am 100% all for compromise! thats what marriage is about...and thats what my post was about.
Sorry, but my stand was and is pretty firm on that one. For a person who didn't even want kids in the church, if my SIL would have asked to carry her 2 month old down the aisle, I would have had a fit! That's just attention seeking on the BMs part, I don't care what anyone says.
I loved my wedding, had a blast planning it, work in the wedding industry, so I guess I'm in the minority here!

Re: How over wedding planning are you?
My wedding almost 4 weeks ago, and I am soooo over the "planning" I was over the planning BEFORE the wedding. I'm just not over the actual wedding yet, I still want to do it over again and again, it was such a great day!

Re: How over wedding planning are you?
I don't think it's necessary to have the baby carried down the aisle.
ETA I still enjoy helping friends with their weddings. I would be a wedding planner because I did like it. But I don't want to work weekends.

Re: How over wedding planning are you?
I'm soooo over the Wedding planning also.
I think that the Wedding is about Family and friends. I think that if its important to your FH that the Baby be there.....Then let it go...and have the Baby there. The Baby isn't going to take anything away from the bride.

it has to do with are you still about GETTING married as opposed to BEING married...looking back now that you're married WOULD you still argue about something like this or would you choose your battles and compromise? thats what my point was.

Re: How over wedding planning are you?
I loved planning our wedding. In fact, I now help my friends plan their weddings, showers and other parties. I wish it could be a full time gig.
As for the bride, I think her reasonas for not wanted the baby there are wrong (her not wanting the baby to steal her thunder), but I don't think infants should be at the ceremony if they're going to act up. In the end, I think it should be up to whatever the bride and groom decide.

It is fun when it is someone else's wedding and you can just help with the fun parts! DH is a groomsman in his cousin's wedding & I helped the BMs decorate for the shower and it was so much fun!
I can see thinking the newborn is issue is a big deal when you are in the middle of wedding palnning, but now it seems silly.

Re: How over wedding planning are you?
I actually begged my SIL (you know who you are ) to carry my 5 month old niece down the aisle. It was a little too awkward for her to do (her 3 year old son was in the bridal party, too) but honesty I don't get how its "taking away" from the bride. I didn't want a lot of kids at my wedding either, I just wanted my close family member's kids and kids in the bridal party and their siblings. That was it.

I don't care about the baby being there, I had many at my wedding. What if the baby cries before she is to walk down the aisle? What if it cries during the walking? What if it cries while the bride is just about to say 'I Do'? The answer to all three is the wedding will still go on. They'll still be married. The baby will take about .06 seconds away from the day.
I do think it was inappropriate for the FSIL to say that she is carrying the baby down the aisle, that decision should be left up to the bride and groom.
I agree. My STBX SIL tried to cram her six month old son down our throat for the wedding; to the point where she lifted one of the boutinerres that was meant for my uncle for her son It was all about her kid that day. I had no problem with his presence (since my nieces and such were there) but she attempted to dictate my entire reception just because her son was in attendance (no smoking, got upset because people were drinking, etc.). Give me a break lady!
As for the wedding planning, I "thought" I was over it, but ever since I've been with John, I've been a little day dreamy about "what if's" and stuff My Mom/future SIL/Amber and myself were in Estelles picking out dresses for my brother's wedding and I gasped out loud when I saw the most beautiful wedding gown ever! I thought I was over that whole aspect of my life.

Re: How over wedding planning are you?
Lana, those shoes are AMAZING!
I'm over the wedding planning and I'm in the middle of planning my wedding... What's a girl to do!?
IMO, I would be pisssed that she wanted to carry the baby down the aisle, but then again, I don't want kids at my wedding at all (I lost that battle though). So that's just me... I don't think it's bridezilla-y (at least it doesn't have to be). I think it's more ridiculous to freak out about what perfume you're going to wear the day of...
