Tales of Bridezilla

I'm totally one of those blogs that has completely let my engagement take over. So, if your one of the single people who's not so cool with that, I apologize. But at the same time, it's my space and I want this stuff documented. Mainly so I can come back and laugh at it later. 
Except right now, I am not laughing. 

Duck Dude, my mom, and I piled in the car on Monday to drive to a venue. I was excited, but extremely anxious. I'd been looking at this venue for 2 weeks. The lady and I had emailed back and forth over 16 times, and I felt like we had a good connection. Their venue looked cool, but they were building... so I knew it wouldn't be completed yet. 
We show up. The chapel is amazing. It's beautiful and the huge window opening up to a pasture was phenomenal. Then we get to where the reception would be. Where 3/4 of the wedding takes place. Where the fun, the crazy, and the celebration really occurs. 
The concrete slab I was looking at looked small. Small enough where I was thinking, there's no way we are going to fit everything in here! Online it said they could hold 400.............. I think they need to add "400 standing up."
Of course, I thought all of this in my head. Duck Dude asked questions. My mom talked to the lady and I just stood there trying to process everything.
We leave and I am quiet. Duck Dude and my mom carry on a conversation and I sit and listen... and think. Until...... 
My mom says, "Yeah, she said they could probably fit 300, but you wouldn't have a dance floor."
Whaaaaaaaaat. No dance floor!!!! This lady is dang out of her mind. It's our wedding. Our celebration. And there will be dancing. Even if it's me and Duck Dude bustin a move by ourselves. No dance floor, no way. 
So, I simply say, "I want a dance floor."
And by that time I had a headache and was ready to be out of the car. Duck Dude and I tried to order chinese food and when they said it would take 55 minutes when it was already 8:30, I said no. 
And that, my friends, was my first bridezilla moment.  _________________________________________________
