    Yep, two of my friends, one from college and one I've known forever, picked the same wedding day as I did.  I'm not really mad, just sad that we can't be at each other's weddings, and a little "humphy" that someone else dare pick my wedding day (haha, I'm kidding).

    Has this happened to anyone else?  Were you totally bummed?  Were you pissed?  

    I'm so sad right now!

    Is that memorial day weekend? If it is, holiday weekends are so popular, it's unfortunate but quite common.

    That really sucks!  Especially if they knew about your date first!! :(

    Sorry to hear it... and, if you have mutual friends, I'd get STD's out soon!

    A college friend is getting married the same day. I'm a little bummed as I've had my date now for 5/6 months and she JUST picked a date. But its not that huge of a deal. I know we will invite some mutual people but I can't change things now.

    That stinks =( i am so sorry i know you want them to be apart and your day and for them to be apart of yours.

    Have they already put money no the venue? What did they say when they found out they all had the same wedding day?

    Yeah, it's Memorial Day Weekend - when we picked it, none of my friends were engaged, and now there are rings popping up everywhere!

    Luckily we don't have guest list overlap, but I'm sad that they won't be able to come to mine, and I won't be able to go to theirs.  

    STDs went out after the first girl picked the same date - I was hoping to avoid more of this!  

    Oh well.  There are worse things in life.

    on the bright side... less meals you have to pay for? I know, that's kinda jaded sounding, and you want your friends there... I'd be all "humpphhh!" too, for sure.

    Maybe they can be planning buddies - you won't be able to share the day, but it might be fun to have several other women you know to share your details with and bounce ideas off of. It might actually help deepen some friendships, not being able to attend each other's weddings aside.
