In Response to Starting the Ceremony late?:
Ok so I have never posted before but I just had to get some other opinions...Our wedding invitations say the ceremony starts at 4:oo my future MIL thinks we need to start a half hour later than stated on the invitaion because so many people will be late. I always try to show up a little early for weddings just in case its not clear where to park or go etc. I thought that most people had this same thought as me...at least my family and friends that I have asked agree with me. My future MIL is saying that their side will be running on "cuban" time and will be late no matter what. She has been so pushy and overbearing through all the planning that she has ruined much of the wedding planning experience for me and my mom. She bought favors I didnt want and set up vendors and put deposits without asking me. I am now stuck with these things...With all that I dont know if I can let her control this as well where all my guest will be stuck there waiting for a half hour or more (if they show up a llittle earlier) to accomidate for her and guests thinking it is acceptable to show up later than the requested time. Btw the ceremony is on a private beach and we are not allowed set up enough chairs for all the guesst only a few for family in the front...so the other guests will just be standing around during this time. I was not excited about this in the beginning but thought it will be a 20-30 min ceremony thats not to bad to stand but now we're talking an hour...I think thats a little rude to ask of my guests. Please let me know what you think!

Why didn't your FI rein her in when she was behaving this way?
