Cancelling wedding

futuremrsbacon, on May 1, 2017 at 2:02 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 121

So five and a half months before our wedding my fiancé has now decided he doesn't love me the way he did before and no longer wants to be with me. We live together, have everything combined and I'm seven and a half weeks pregnant after two years of trying.

I could just use some positive thoughts to get through this. I've been crying for like two days because well, I'm mad and sad and because my hormones are going crazy.

Now to the joys of cancelling the wedding. Any advice? Everything is in my name so it's my job.

    Oh hun, I am so sorry. Is there any friends or family that can help and make calls on your behalf?

    Hang in there, you have a beautiful little life joining you soon enough.

    You deserve better and will find it.

    I feel so bad for you. First thing you need to do unfortunately is to consult a domestic relations atty in your area. You are pregnant with this guys child and while your relationship may be over he has a financial responsibility to care for this child. The contacting vendors and cancelling everything while embarrassing is going to go very quickly for you. It's the matter of calling the vendors and asking them what the procedure is and just follow it.

    OP if i could reach through the computer and give you a hug i would. Please lean on those closest to you to help you navigate this. Don't try to handle everything on your own.

    Oh my goodness Smiley sad I am so sorry for you. I can't believe he would do this to you when you are pregnant! Absolutely unforgiveable. As for cancelling the wedding, I would be honest about it with the vendors. At least some vendors are likely to feel sympathetic to your situation and refund you the deposit since you're still so far out. Best of luck. I hope everything turns out ok for you.

    Oh gosh I am so sorry! Do you have anyone (mother, father, sisters, friends?) that can help make the calls about cancelling?

    I am so sorry to hear this. Do you have family that can contact your vendors for you? You have more pressing issues than calling around. Take care of yourself right now!

    Oh my, so sorry you are going thru this! Thinking of you and baby. I have a feeling some vendors would be sympathetic towards your situation, at least they should be anyway.

    Positive thoughts and vibes are being sent your way! I am so sorry that he is deciding this now after all that you have been through. Is there a lot going on right now? Could he need some time to think about things and then through couples counseling, maybe things could work? Obviously your main concern needs to be you and your unborn child right now.. take all the time you need to heal and remember after all it is just money, we can't take it with us. Lean on those closest to you right now and let them help. Remember that you have a life growing inside of you that you get to love unconditionally and will do the same for you. Good luck sweetie.

    I'm so sorry you have to go through this during your pregnancy. Just remember you have a little bundle of joy growing inside you and when you are stress and crying it affects your precious baby as well. Hang in there and we are all here for you. A big hug sent from me to you and the baby.....God is amazing and just start canceling everything and do your best you can for the little one. God bless you !!!

    Oh my goodness! So, so incredibly sorry to hear this news. Sending you all the virtual hugs. ****

    I don't know if this is reasonable, but is there someone who can help you with the process of canceling? Could your mom make some phone calls for you, for instance? You have enough on your plate grieving for your relationship and making a plan for your future and your child, without adding the strain of canceling with vendors or letting guests know. Lean on the people that you can. Heck, message me and I'll make some calls for you, if it would help!

    You can and will survive this.

    Speechless....I am so sorry, please protect yourself, financially -if you have mutual bank accounts, and with the care of your unborn little peanut, I suggest filing for custody as soon as possible, I am not sure specifics of time frame, but consult with a lawyer.

    I'm sorry you're going through this!!!

    Beyond the advice already given, I'd consider your financial situation. Are your accounts already combined? If so, if there's a way to freeze the account so you're not going to get money stolen that would probably be a good thing. Also look into any utilities that are in both of your names.

    I hope this process goes smoothly for you two.

    I'm so sorry. Do you have a support network close by that could assist you during this time?

    I'm so sorry for you. From experience, I can tell you it will get better, but give yourself time- time to grieve, time to be angry, all of those things. I don't know what your support system is like, but this is one of those times when it is ok to ask your BMs, friends, and family for help- see if they can help you make calls, see what kind of deposits you can get back or if you can change them for other services (would your photographer be willing to do a newborn shoot, that type of thing). Good luck to you, and hugs and prayers to you and your baby!
