Feeling alone in getting things together

That's got to be painful. I don't know why families do that, and I hope if I ever have kids I don't do that.

Im right there with you, girl! My bridesmaids are either in a different state (MOH as well), or jaded due to being divorced or just don't really care and just want to be there for the party. I haven't had much help either. I am an only child so I have no siblings. My FH sister is in a different state. His mother is decease and my mom works 15 hours days and lives 1.5 hours away so she doesnt have much time to assist me either. Also, she's slightly tom boy-ish and doesnt understand my style. My FH doesn't care one way or another. Every time I ask him to help me decide on stuff he just says, "Do whatever you want honey. Whatever you chose will be perfect." It's so frustrating because I work full time and have 2 children, one who is almost 12 and one who is almost 3, so my hands are tied. My friends I've asked for simple opinions on "What flower do you think would look better" give me extremely sarcastic answers or will purposefully google the ugliest flower and say "DO THIS!!!!" or will come back at me with, "how much is that going to cost...." or "Isn't that going to be expensive!!?!?" "Do you have 200,00 for this wedding?!?!" Like seriously. All i am asking for is someone to help me narrow stuff down or throw some ideas in I haven't thought of because I'm so overwhelmed all the time. I literally am in this all alone. Neither of us have ever been married before so I want this to be very special for not only my FH and I but also for my children. It's so frustrating. You are not alone...and i don't have any advice

I dealt with this in the beginning of planning so i understand. I just toughed through it because i understood my bridal party had a lot of various life changing incidents happen. (i.e. 3 of them had babies around the same time)

I would have a talk with your matron or maid of honor and maybe develop a plan on what you need help with or want them to join in on. Also ask your fiance' too when i felt alone my future husband really stepped up with details im sure he could have cared less about lol.

Right? It's crazy to see how mean our supposed friends and family can be when the focus isn't them, huh?

I feel same. I created a secret FB group and only invited a few people and that helped me feel better about it. A couple of my friends are coming to my shopping for dresses now. I don't mind doing everything on my own, but sometimes I wish I had someone to talk to that was excited. Its all good though when the day comes it will be great.
