    If she's not paying and she's not hosting, stop talking to her about the RD.  If she brings it up, say, "It's under control" and change the subject. 
    This is a neglected planning bio.
    This is a belated married bio, with no reviews yet because I'm lazy.

    Sometimes I feel like people think that brides are delicate little flower princesses who get all dressed up and pretty for one special moment of their dreams, when really they're just normal people who just happen to be getting married. Things shouldn't have to be sugar-coated for grown-ass women. -mstar284

    Don't bring up the RD around her, and if she does, I agree with aerin--just say "it's under control" or "it's already taken care of." If she forces ideas upon you, just say "thanks for your ideas, but it's already been taken care of." THen change the subject. If she is not paying, she can not FORCE you to do anything a certain way.

    Whoever pays has the say. Stop talking about it around her. And if she brings it up, change the subject or tell her you have everything taken care of.

    This. If she's not paying, it's none of her concern
