I’m getting married in 12 days and everything except the cake is an absolute mess

I’m getting married in 12 days and everything but the cake is a mess (including my groom) – what should I do?

  • Bride reveals disastrous DIY wedding
  • Her in-laws want to deliver bottled soft drinks
  • This means that guests each get a little more than a cup

A bride-to-be is terrified that her wedding will be a disaster after realizing she only has 12 days left before walking down the aisle and “the only thing that will pay off is the cake.”

She went on to explain that the bridal party is totally disorganized, with two of her bridesmaids still undecided about their outfits.

The situation on the groom’s side is even more dire as none of the men have their suits on for the big day.

There has also been a huge battle over their DIY catering.

“His family wants to buy 17x two-litre bottles for the reception, but I want cans,” the concerned bride said.

A bride-to-be says she’s ‘breaking out all over the place’ after realizing how much work she has to do for her wedding in just 12 days

This equates to approximately 355 ml of drink – less than a cup and a half.

“Send help, I’m getting acne all over,” she said.

Her desperate plea seemed to make other people break out as well.

“Did they think someone else would plan the wedding? How do you get to that point and have nothing but pie?’ one person asked.

“This is bad enough and then she calls 100 GUESTS! Making dinner for 100 people with nothing planned 12 days out. I burst out even thinking about it.’ added another.

“Maybe it’s time to start praying for a natural disaster because that’s more likely than this wedding being a success,” laughed a third.

Others couldn’t get past the two-liter soda option, saying weddings without enough drinks are horrible.

“Apart from the fact that pouring liters is much less convenient than from a can, do they really like the fact that a liter can be split into six parts and that the only drink is enough liquid?” a woman asked.

“I know weddings are expensive, but you have to provide your guests with drinks. You don’t have to have an open bar, you don’t have to have every drink under the sun, but people need something to drink.”

“Her in-laws are so excited for the wedding that they spend money on cheap soda,” another person said laughing,

And they weren’t the only ones to giggle about the disastrous wedding planning.

“The mental image of all the guests pouring themselves drinks from two liters sends me,” laughed one.

A woman suggested to the bride to “give up everything, including the husband.”

‘He doesn’t want to get married. I think you and your friends who really made the effort to buy a dress should take the cake and eat it after ditching him, his family and the wedding.”

Some were concerned about the guests.

“I feel sorry for the 100 people who think they are going to a wedding but in reality don’t show up,” said one woman.

“I hope they don’t spend too much money on gifts or going to the wedding because right now it’s not happening,” said another.
