Groomzilla : Part I

I’ve become a monster.

At what point does an otherwise normal man, with the typical dismissive male attitude towards his own wedding, suddenly become so infatuated with a stupid and trivial wedding decision, the invitation font choice and color for example, that he is willing to throttle his own mother rather than back down from his font of choice? Holy crap, we haven’t even started haggling over the invite list yet!

I just hope my mother doesn’t kick me in the nuts again.

  1. Firstly, wear a cup to avoid any further embaressing situations re: Nut Kicking, and next time, you can laugh maniacally and yell, I have Nuts of STEEL…Secondly, just go ahead and order them. Don’t even bother waiting for more advice, once they are ordered, they are ordered. That’s what I did, however, I wish someone had given me the “Cup” advice, as my Mother-in-law has the same “kick-in-nuts” resolution that your Mother has….

  2. Who’s the designer, you or her? So who knows fonts and looks better than you?

    I think you got your answer there. However… tred lightly since you’ll hear it for the rest of your life.

  3. just send out an evite. People can RSVP online. And I’m with whomever said it’s your wedding. The folks can put up or shut up.

  4. ah, welcome to the wonderful world of marriage… :)

    i’m with Beth – send an evite. i’m sure they’ve got a wedding skin or two in their templates.

  5. Hey, I’m the editor of Australia’s number one bridal magazine (no joke, mate!) and I was wondering if you – the self-proclaimed groomzilla – would like to be in an article we are doing about the whole groomzilla trend we’re seeing in guys becoming much more obsessed about the organising of their wedding (that they are probably paying for it as opposed to the tradition of the bride’s parents footing the bill and therefore weilding a measure of ‘creative control’).

    Are you interested?
