I have heard from several of MY friends that have been invited to my X husband’s wedding that the glossy, proper, formal invitations (like the ones we had at our wedding) have been sent out.

I am feeling a little strange about this.

I haven’t dealt with this sort of thing before. Slightly bigger than not being invited to somebody’s party and feeling left out. Slightly need to try and be a little more grown up about MY friends who may or may not be accepting the wedding invite.

Do you think it would be inappropriate to just turn up? Maybe wearing a bridesmaid’s dress and carrying a posy and then I might not get noticed; I could just follow the bride and groom down the aisle next to my daughter.

Builder Bloke is thinking about doing the same thing….

    I’m sure BB would look lovely in a mauve bridesmaid’s dress, with puff sleeves

    if i wasn’t laughing so hard reading your post i would cry…….good lord you have a fantastic attitude!!

    i can totally relate to wanting to be a fly on the wall with that one tho…..so instead of a bridesmaids dress perhaps a cloak of invisibility? 😉

    Eeeek that is a tricky one – I admire you for making it sound so funny. Shew. Yeah Miranda is right Builder Bloke would look good in a bridesmaid frock. Perhaps you could both go together undercover dressed up like that
