Bridezilla LIVES!

My darling daughter, who has been so sweet throughout the last 9 months of wedding planning, has turned into Bridezilla.
She has e-mailed me no less than 10 times every day for the last two weeks. I have responded each and every time, answering questions, telling her what has been ordered, when it will be delivered, etc, etc.
For the last two days, not one e-mail, not one phone call, nuttin. I called her yesterday evening, she's too busy to talk and will call me back. No call.
I e-mailed her today asking for directions so her Dad can pick up his tux. I get a response, "just come to my house and Dad can go with the other guys", with no thought as to what other things we might have to do tomorrow. I said, OK, we'll do that.
I just called her. Her voice was "cold" "frigid", and she's busy and has a lot of things to do.
I have bent over backwards trying to do everything she wanted to have a beautiful wedding. All decisions were hers, not mine, I didn't even attempt to voice an opinion. I just did what she wanted. What the F did I do wrong?
Is this just pre-wedding stress? I dunno. I'm leaving at 8:00 tomorrow morning. The train has left the station and we're all on board. What happens, happens and there's no stopping it now.
I'm just possibly a little stressed too. After all, it my GD money and my GD efforts, and my GD work, and my GD daughter is treating me like her worst enemy!
Crap!
Sandy

B R E A T H E Sandy, B R E A T H E. IN with the good air, OUT with the bad.
In just a lil while she'll be hugging you and telling you how perfect everything was and you'll know it was all worthwhile 
In the meantime, may I suggest a wonderful Cabernet Sauvignon or perhaps a Pinot Noir? 
If all else fails, I'm heading your way and bringing the Jack.

That's exactly why, if I get married again, I'm going to city hall or Vegas, then having a huge BBQ....

Our daughters must be cosmic sisters, Sandy, because I know exactly what you are talking about.
But like Moms of the Hood, we'll push our mistreatment out of our minds as soon as we see our little darlings smile again. And they will.
Wait 'til the grandchildren come!

My heart goes to you Sandy..in my wedding, my Mom did everything for me because we had it in Mexico, I wanted all my family there, after all, they paid for the wedding ...
I trusted her with all the decisions, she is and interior designer and she has the best taste in the world in my opinion, my Dad is a great Chef so, the menu was on his hands ..all I had to worry about was to lose weight 
We arrived 3 days before the wedding day and that because the priest wanted to talk to us...
The wedding was perfect, I Thanked my Mom and Dad for everything and we never had a fight or discussion..I am very lucky to have the Mom I have
Hope everything goes according to plan Sandy, you deserve better from you daughter and don't worry if she does not thank you for all your hard work, I THANK YOU because YOU are a wonderful Mom 
Hugs and kisses
Rosy.

Aww, Sandy...........yes, she is soo totally stressed, she's lost sight of who is in her court!
I'm with Jen, here, perrrrhaps a nice merlot, but, mostly, please, inhale, exhale, repeat as necessary.
It will be a wonderful event, and your darling Bridezilla will become your little princess once again right after the whole thing is behind her..........
oh, and experience compells me to tell you, if she asks you NOT to look at her, it is self- preservation ONLY! My daughter warrned me, if she looked at me, she was sure to cry, and she really didn't want to .........after all, it's sposed to be the happiest day of her life!
EGBOK! REALLY.............EGBOK!!!!!!!!!!!

She's letting you see her fears because she knows you're the only one in the world who she can rant at or whatever without you taking it back out on her. In a backhanded way its her showing you how much she loves and trusts you even though I know it doesn't feel much like that.
We love you Sandy, very very much so just you remember when you are upset we will ALWAYS Be here for you - oh and remember, you have problems of your own to sort out too. Its terribly bad etiquette to upstage the Bride by looking even gorgeous-er and I don't know how the hell you're going to avoid THAT one
lots of love
Helen xxx

Helen's right, hon. That unconditional love thing can backfire sometimes. I will congratulate you for this being the first time she's made you feel this way. Daughters can be so cruel sometimes.
It's almost over, then you'll have your angel back....
Lotsa love, nani (who is rejected daily by mooshie, LOL)

Exactly why wedding plans should be left to the men.
