Family having trouble dealing with us getting married! HELP!

Ok so we've only been engaged two weeks, but we have been discussing for a while when the perfect time for us to get married is going to be because we are both still going to be in college by the time the wedding arrives. Anyway, we chose August of next year. My fiance will graduate next May, but he wants to take two extra classes next summer. I will still be in nursing school so his family is overreacting about it being too soon. I've always wanted a big wedding and couldnt wait to plan it, but now I kind of want to go the beach for the ceremony just to get away from them. How should I deal with these people!? Lol

  • Ditto pp. You should do what you and FI want, don't bend for others or you will wish you should have done this or that and be unhappy with the way your special day turns out. If you are paying for it, then they can give ideas or suggestions, but not tell you what to do. Stand up to them and if they really want to be there, they will, if not, look at it as their loss, not yours.
  • Thanks guys!!! My parents are paying for the wedding, but its his family that's giving us a hard time. I just want everyone to be happy for us and make this time enjoyable. I just want to get away from it all...just venting here...thanks for listening!
