Both my FI and my parents are looking at me crazy when I said we had to have our engagement photo session soon and he just looked at me funny becouse he thought they only reason you do them is to be put in the newspaper. When I explained it for us he just looked at me and cocked an eyebrow. "I would rather spend money on something more importent for the wedding."
He then proceeded to down play having an engagement party, that he asked for originally, saying his friends wolnt come so why have one.
He then also throws me a curve ball that his family said we cant have it one weekend becouse a 2nd cuz of his is already having an event one weekend though he cant remeber which weekend.
Everyone is playing it off that we have a year and 4 months to plan but no one is helping with anything except telling me "these people wolnt show up, FI wants me to cut the budget back, no one wants to set a budget, no one wants to go with me to look at venues" Dad is just worried about who is marrying us and who is supervising the kitchen to make sure the food is kosher, and that i have an orthedox like wedding even though my FI and I agreed on a conservative wedding "
anyone else feel behind an 8 ball
