I don't think she knows what a great fundraiser weddings can be. You should tell her about all the ways she can make money by having a wedding. Point out to her about the cool stuff like Money Trees and Dollar Dances. Have a Raffle. Put "No Boxed Gifts" right on the invite. Have a cash bar and get a percentage. Pressure the bridesmaids into giving endless showers to maximize the loot.

You know all of your questions are all about money. You have got to be one materialist stuck up person. You cant take it with you and people that have to brag and prove to the world that they have money don't usually have a dime. Obviously you didn't have a good upbringing because if you did you would have been taught something about manners and being all about the money. I doubt you have what you say in the first place. Obviously you really have never been around real money because you would see that people that have it could care less about telling everyone what they have. No one cares and get a life. You are going to end up a bitter lonely old woman one day. You cant take it with you. People with your sorry personality make me want to vomit. it is a wonder you have any friends at all. People are going to figure out what you are all about and you wont have any friends. No one wants to hear you boasting all the time. It is annoying.

Don't say anything. Yes, she's making mistakes, but you can't stop her.
I think you need to cut her some slack. She just lost her father. Planning this weddings in filling the void or helping her cope. Plus, she's getting sued. If you ask me, this poor girl needs to have a nice wedding. She deserves it more then someone who has never struggled.
I don't think it's anyone's place to judge how they spend their money. I mean, it's not like she's asking you for hand out.
I find people, like you, that have money; have a hard time understanding living AND having nice things without it.
Cut your friend some slack. You are in no position to judge her financial situation. Friends love each other regardless of the choices that they make. If you don't like what she's doing, I would take your money and get some new friends. Perhaps you need people who are more like you, and less like her.
It's hard not having money and having a friend who has lots. They don't understand the difference at all. You might be just as ignorant about money as your friend.

that life isn't about competition with people around us. Its about fighting for what we really want. In an auction, we would only bid and compete when the thing we want is the topic. We don't just bid anything coz we wanna compete. You will end up paying a price for something you actually doesn't want. And auctioner will also bid within his own capabilities. He won't call a bid more than what he can afford as the consequences are heavy too.
There're always someone who are more capable than us, better looking than us, richer than us, blah blah blah. That doesn't put us in a losing spot. The only time we lose is when we look down on ourselves and try to compete. Everyone is rich, just in different aspects. A can be richer than B in terms of money, but B can be richer in terms of friends. So which is better? Friends? Say B is richer than C in terms of friends, but C is richer than B in terms of family. So now which is better?
If we always compare, it'll be neverending and we'll never find happiness and always be empty. The day you find happiness and contented is the day you accept who you are and know you are created for a different purpose.

well friends never tell u or show the correct expressions if they are jealous...
but i think that is just useless... u should be happy with what u have and who u r...
and if u feel u need more then work hard to get it...
dont use any bad means to get it... and do not interfere in other people's lives...
i am jealous sometimes for very trivial reasons but then when i sit and think i see how stupid i am...
we have have something special about which we can be proud...
i think u should let ur friend do what she wants... she is quite mature... she is not a kid... and it seems that the more u will tell her the more she will be...
so let her in peace and may be she will realise later...

Why are you rubbing it her face that you "have lots of money and so does my fiance"? If the tables were turned, would you want her to do that to you?
I've found that the people who brag the most are the ones who have the least to brag about.
And if you're calling her a dumb ars, perhaps you should tell her to find better friends.

what's lacking from all of your fulfillment and new-wealthy status is type. those who placed on their wealth very truly do not talk like you do. "My fiance and that i will truly have adequate money it although because we are both extremely efficient." also, your disdain for her wedding ceremony isn't a secret. a stylish lady's pals might want to do no longer comprehend of ways too a lot being spent, and a stylish lady does no longer anticipate her wedding ceremony is "probably the nicest that numerous human beings were to." in the journey that your husband-to-be comes from funds and also you do not, your lack of self belief is showing and also you want to paintings on that. once you've earned your thanks to wealth, kudos, yet you want to placed on it extra gently or human beings will imagine you're tiresome. I already do. i'm the alternative of you -- I grew up in a wealthy relatives, yet after my mom and father died and some dreary drama i'm penniless. except my tech company is about to make it huge. besides... Petunia, the in ordinary words income to having a wealthy, pretentious pal is even as the wealth rubs off on you. meaning inspite of you do for interesting -- a posh lunch, a spa day, fantastic out on the club, procuring, inspite of that's you human beings do -- deliver her alongside. She's your pal, and also you should inform her, "Hildegarde, i'm in this interesting time of my existence, and that i want you to celebrate with it with me. you're my pal, and one among my well-known bridesmaids. i have been so below pressure with each and every of the planning, i have neglected to have any interesting with you latterly."

actually i do have a "friend" who was very jealous of me and my wedding.
neither one of has money to blow, but she was definilty mad that it wasnt about her.
she tried to out do my wedding with a big fancy one and it got thrown back in her face, when her food was nasty, no one danced and people left the reception at 6pm.
people partied hard at mine.
you really shouldnt throw things in peoples faces though. if they want to spend money they do or dont have then let them.
its not like your paying the bills.

Your money must be new. People with old money never act like this. Stop telling your friend what to do and we won't tell you what to do. You are probably the type if you lost all your money, you would probably jump out a window. In my opinion, if you didn't earn it, it is not really yours.. you are just a mooch.
