Venting here. Wondering if anyone else is dealing with a controlling mother. Mine has tried to hijack the guest list with her people, she thinks it's her party. Here's the rub.. Other than covering the cost of her guests and the photographer we are paying for everything which is a huge sacrifice on our part! I can't afford a coordinator so she has taken on that role as well also will be doing the invites she is a calligrapher I have planned everything else found all the venues in Manhattan in NYC with our tiny budget. Obviously her role in the wedding comes with strings but what the f? We don't want people there we don't care about and have enough space limitations as is! Arggh!! Thanks for the vent...
