I've told a wedding white lie - true or false?

True. I say I got stuff "on sale" when I got them from resale pages in new or like new condition because it would make people uncomfortable knowing they weren't bought brand new from the store.

False. Maybe I am going about things wrong but I am being 100% transparent with my vendors and prospective vendors. I wonder if white lies help?!?

Kinda... lol. I invited a friend and not her boyfriend because he’s a super bad active addict and we don’t want that drama.. so I blamed it on limited guest count. And of course telling everyone the deadline is this weekend when our numbers are due next week.. we don’t want to stress! But I think that’s it.. so far. Lol!

Sadly yes, to my own mom. I had to fib and tell her we hadn’t made certain wedding decisions yet so she wouldn’t be mad and tell me that I planned it all without her. My mom is very abrasive and easily angered. She’s already mad about the date of the wedding and I do want her to be involved in planning but she’s always busy when I ask if she can help and if she is free she acts like it’s torture. I also already know she doesn’t like my FH.. it’s the worst.

False haven't yet lol

True, I went over budget on my dress and told my man and my grandparents it was less that not actually was.

True... we’ve had to tell a few small ones to vendors during the initial planning stages.

True! I've definitely told parents that some things didn't cost as much as they actually did so they wouldn't judge what we're willing to pay for what we want most.

True, I've definitely told some small lies here and there.. oops!

True, downplayed the cost of my wedding dress to my future MIL so i didnt seem like such a brat

I should have done something like this! Haha. But my FH would have probably told her the truth anyway.

Hmm, true. Long story, short. FPIL offered to pay for certain things like rehearsal dinner, alcohol, flowers. Well, FMIL just likes to spend money and buy stuff. Apparently she has bought/booked more things than agreed-upon (all on her own accord), yet complains that I "expect" her to buy this and that and pay for this and that, when I never said any of that. So I've just started telling her that my parents are paying for this or that even when 95% of the time, I'm going to buy it. Don't get me wrong, I'm extremely grateful for my FIL's help, but I'd rather not have FMIL talk about me like that behind my back when everything she's accusing me of is false. I'll let them continue to help on things we agreed on, but nothing else solely due to that reason.

True😬 I’m the one that paying for almost everything but I tell my family that me and my fiancé are splitting the costs equally. It’s none of their business but I can’t tell them that when they ask😂

False... but I have a feeling we'll be having to tell some white lies about the guest list to some people eventually.

Yeah, I think we did. We didnt want to invite a certain aunt and uncle so we didn't. We deliberately did not invite them and then said it was to budget constraint but we just didnt want them there.

A few white lies here and there, but nothing hurtful or over the top.

False! No need. We’re paying, therefore no one else has any say in our wedding.

False! I haven't had to tell any yet! I'm sure that will change when time goes on however

Nope. I don't sugar coat I tell them straight out. My parents aren't paying for my wedding I am so I don't need to go over anything with them.

I meant false not nope 😂😂😂
