    I have already. 😢 Had my first zilla moment which I still feel really guilty about. My FMIL, whom I love so dearly and feels like a second mother to me, wanted to add 20-25 extra people to the guest list that we were not expecting or wanting. (Background: we are paying for the wedding and our max is 100. We could not accommodate them anyway, but they were people neither my fiance or myself knew.) She kind of sprung it on us when I was not prepared, and I pushed back in a slightly hysteric way that revealed the pretty intense anxiety I was feeling. After that I felt horrible, me and my FMIL talked about it later that night and I apologized and we made things right. But I feel bad still and I think I freaked her our a little bit.

    Guilty, table decorations have me so stressed out. I am not good with things like that and don't really have a "vision." I also dont want flowers and that definitely makes that more difficult.

    Wedding planning has been very stressful. So yes. I probably have had my moments. But with venues that wont book you til 6 weeks before, venues that might have events but just don't know yet, and a seamstress who had my dress for 3 months and wouldn't answer me to schedule a first fitting... I'm a little justified.

    The only kind of 'zilla moment I've had was when my FMIL decided she wanted to wear what was basically a wedding dress to our wedding. I was upset, but didn't want to be a bridezilla, but thankfully FH took care of that real quick so I didn't have to be the bad guy.

    Luckily I haven't and neither has my FH. There honestly hasn't been any drama with our wedding despite it being adults only (18+). His family has jokingly insinuated things like "guess you two don't like everyone in the family" and "guess this is going to be a naughty wedding if kids aren't allowed," but things like that don't bother us, especially since we personally don't plan to have children. Haha

    I don't necessarily think I had zilla moments but I know there were a few breakdowns because I didn't think things were going to happen the way I had envisioned. We got married 8 weeks after getting engaged so planning was crazy!!

    According to MIL, nope, not even once.

    I would say I maybe went off on DH a few times, for claiming he didn't know what to do... with the planning book in front of him and google on his computer...

    (I'm sure my mother would say I was entirely one, but she got offended at the invitations... so...)

    I haven't yet and I hope that I don't. My sister and my two FSIL's keep telling me they don't think I'll have one because I'm always so calm.

    Only one haha! My FH decided on a whim to add another groomsmen, just last week, well into the planning stages. Which normally wouldn't be so bad but I had a hard enough time finding 5 bridesmaids as it was and now im trying to scramble and fill the last spot to make things even so my OCD will subside. Needless to say, I was not the happiest of brides at that moment and turned into a 'zilla. I've cooled down now, but i'm still trying to find another bridesmaid Smiley amazing and i told him he was NOT allowed to add anymore to the wedding party under any circumstances lol!
