just remeber it's your day, don't let her or anyone or anything else ruin it for you~ on this day it's ok for it to be all about you, those are perks of being the bride~
sounds to me as if she is jealous & doesn't know how to conduct herself, but hurting you w/ things she says is so uncalled for~ no matter how much you want to get mad w/ her, i say showing her that she isn't upsetting you would prolly bother her more than anything~ i also say kill her w/ kindness, sometimes it's very hard, but take the high road, you will feel great about yourself & how you handled things/her~
i have to wish you the best on your upcoming wedding~ i have been w/ my hubz for 22 years, married 16 in may~ & i love him more than ever~

That thing about the honeymoon suite is VERY weird. How uncomfortable!!
I think there is jealousy on a lot of levels. And when it comes to that, nothing I can do will change her behavior. So I will take the high road and not stoop to her level.
That is great that your marriage is so solid - my parents are still married and in love after 37 years!
