    They're really communicating daily with mean comments?  Screw the wedding I'd be getting a restraining order.
  • they are being extremely picky. I would just not talk to them about it/ change the subject.

  • Stop responding!!!  Maybe they will get mad enough and not come!  

    Seriously though, if you keep responding, they will keep calling/texting/emailing.  Ignore their calls.  Do  not respond to emails or texts that are just attacks and complaints.  They will hate that.
  • I have someone in my family exactly like that but fortunately its just one person. I've just cut as much contact as I can and don't let it bother me as much anymore by thinking its not my issue its her self centredness thinking everything is about her. Its your day
  • I always wonder about the other side when I read posts like this.

    so they are calling and texting you to make mean comments about your wedding, and nothing else? and you just siton the phone listening to them?

    why do you keep taking their calls?

    block their email addresses, tell them to stop calling and texting, and call your phone company to see if you can block their numbers. it makes no sense that random family members have found your contact information to harass you on a daily basis and you think you cn't do anything about it.

    <div>It's hard to cut ties with people who were normal until you announced your engagement. I have told them that I won't listen to their talk about the wedding anymore, but then they'll call other members of my family, yell at them, and then I get calls from my cousins where they are sobbing hysterically, wondering why our grandmother suddenly went crazy. </div>

    If this is truly what's going on - your family members were completely normal until you announced your engagement - either you're blind to something or this/these family member(s) have gone through a mental breakdown.  I highly doubt it's the latter.  Either way you need to tell these people to back off. If they won't listen contact the authorities. Someone calling and emailing daily to berate you is breaking the law. As for the cousins and whatnot butting in - tell them to eff off. Seriously. It doesn't matter what their reasoning is, they have no valid excuse to interfere in this situation. You need to grow a back bone and stand up for yourself.
