So on Saturday, Me and FI had our tasting for the wedding dinner. Originally it was supposed to be just me and him...well once my mom found out, she decided she just "had" to come so that she could have her say. Which also ment that our 2 yr old son had to come with us as my mom was supposed to watch him for us so we could actually enjoy the tasting.
As soon as we all sat down the waitress reminded us that the tasting was only for me and FI as it isnt a full sized portion of everything and my mom said "oh yes, not a problem"..... mhm... well didnt she just pick up a fork the second the first course was laid out on the table.. yup. At one point, my son started getting restless and I told my mom that she would need to maybe take him for a walk so that me and FI could get through the tasting since it's kind of important. "Yeah no problem". 5 minutes later FI had to take him for a walk because my mom decided to completely ignore my request, and continue eating.
She also made a point of criticising almost everything on our menu, especially when I made of point of sharing how much I enjoyed the cream sauce for the chicken. She made it quite clear that we should change the sauce completely even though both of the sauces for the chicken and beef were put on the side (because SHE wanted it that way) because I guess we are supposed to be pleasing every single person attending our wedding..
ugh she is just so darn frustrating sometimes. I prefer planning the wedding with my FMIL over my mom 90% of the time because my mom and me have very different taste which makes all of my ideas and dreams for my wedding day seem "tacky" or "silly"
