Flip Out Or Forget It? - Someone plans their wedding close to your date

Forget it. This hasn't happen to us yet and, hopefully, *knocks on wood*, it doesn't happen. The closest we've come to this is us confirming our dates with vendors then getting a save the date for a year and a day before ours...the groom of that wedding had agreed to stand in our wedding (didn't mention his date). They're from out of town, so their just like "Meh, excuse to take a few extra days and have an anniversary trip"....If they aren't gong to stress about it, I'm not either

I was more disappointed that we had 3 other engagements in our families within 2 weeks of ours. I felt it took away from ours. As far as wedding goes (ours is just over a month away) so its unlikely but I wouldn't care its our big day and I won't be thinking about anyone else.

I think I'd forget it. As long as our day is about us, anyone else is welcome to the weekend before or after.

This would actually make me pretty mad. Anyone who knows me AT ALL knows that this is my day and it's the day I've been dreaming of for years. My fiance and I have been engaged for three years so everyone knows it too.

FLIP OUT! If I already sent out Save the Dates out, then there's no reason why they should be planning their wedding too close to mine.

Flip- but only if they’re close and they knew my wedding date.

As long as it's not the same day I'm fine! And even then, the ones who I feel would probably ditch mine aren't the ones i want there anyway! I want the ones who want to be there, not the ones who want free food and cheap booze!

Flip it! Just simply say I would love to attend your wedding if we were in town. We can't cut our honeymoon short unless that wedding party member decides they back out then and want to focus on their day.

I mean... everyone knows our date and it's a Friday! If someone were to make their wedding the Saturday (next day) I would just be like WHY?!?!? I wouldn't be mad though! Pick your date to how ever you want it!

Forget it. I'd be just as happy for them as if it were any other time.

I have a friend that is getting married few months prior. I am fine with it, but when I share idea's I expect she won't be using same stuff as me. We are both different, shared ideas. I never used her's and she used mine. Thats when I flip out.

This happened to me. A friend got married 2 weeks after me. I don’t own the month; I can’t tell people when to get married. Originally, she had her date for 1 week after my wedding and I just told her I’m not cutting my honeymoon short. Her venue wasn’t available that day so I was glad I was able to attend her wedding! Plus, it was fun to have someone to talk to about planning since many of my other friends were starting to get sick of hearing me talk wedding!

Forget it. Although a little miffed... one of my FH's groomsmen got engaged in the fall, and they are getting married 2 weeks after us now, but it's a super small elopement, with a party later in spring. So the 'wedding' isn't a big thing, but it meant him having his bachelor party last night, 6 days before our wedding... so my FH is spending extra money, and was gone for a full 24 hours on day that I was doing a TON of wedding stuff.

Forget it. As long as it's not the same day I don't care

I might flip out a little since the majority of our guests/friends/family do have to travel so if someone farther away is planning within a week, it would kind of hurt but I'm not gonna get upset with the same month.

Close to my date? Thats fine. On my date...thats not cool. If i dont know you and you have the same wedding date as me then that’s awesome - enjoy the party! But my FH got a message from a friend if his that he was also getting married on the same day so he wont be able to attend our wedding. Kind of frustrating since we had our STD and Invites sent out before they announced their engagement... but whatever, can’t do anything about it.

Forget it - It's not a competition. Be happy for them and move on

Forget it. This is fine, you get one day, your wedding day. Anyone who cares enough will be there regardless of any other weddings the same month/ week. Only thing that would be awful is if it's the same day. You will have enough notice to be able to work everything around it.

Forget it. That's life, and really, unless the weddings are on the same exact day, what does it matter?

Forget it. There's only so many weekends, and depending on what season you're picking it in, some are more popular than others.

Forget it, other peoples life doesn’t stop because I’m getting married.

Forget it.

One more excuse to party!

Forget it - anyone who actually cares about me wouldn’t do this

Forget it because no close friend or family member of mine would do this and if they did I'd forget them. LOL.

I found out that someone I went to high school with recently made their wedding date the day after mine, but I know the friend that mentioned it will attend both.

Definitely forget it.. my future brother in-law got engaged 6 months before us and his fiance actually did flip out when she found out that the date we picked was 3 months before the date she wanted. She even went as far to try and get my FMIL against me... But now I'm the one getting married in 5 months and she is single so clearly not worth the flip out lol

Forget it. You get one day and you’ll shine and be in the spotlight for that one day and the other couple will have their day.

Forget it. Don’t let the little things bother you! Less stress, more happiness

Forget it. Doesn’t matter to me one bit!

I wouldn't worry to much, just forget it.

They will either choose my wedding because we told them about it first, or they must be closer to the other couple. Less mouths to feed!!
