When you first become engaged, you obviously want people to be happy for you and take an interest in this big change in your life. You hope they’re excited about your engagement, and don’t say anything stupid or rude. You want to talk about how he popped the question (or how you popped it! Since that’s allowed, too!) And, when you do meet up with friends, you wouldn’t mind if they acknowledged that you’re in the middle of wedding planning, since that is a rather daunting task. But, that being said, sometimes, as a bride, it can feel like all eyes are on you, everyone has an opinion of how you should do things, everyone feels personally invested in the outcome of the wedding, and everyone is obnoxiously curious. If you’re friends of a bride-to-be, here are things she really wishes you’d stop asking.

When’s the wedding?

That’s a complicated question with a complicated answer. Maybe her sister is getting married on a certain date and to be polite she’s waiting X amount of time but that pushes her wedding too close to another major holiday so….and so on and so forth. She’s stressed about it and doesn’t want to solve it with you, right now.
