July 2012 Weddings

LESS STRESS!!!!! Thank god

I have had the hardest time planning my wedding.  My FMIL lives in Arizona, Im in NE Oregon and she has been wanting to be part of the planning. No problem glad to have some help since my mother is totally against our wedding and wants no part of the wedding or planning. Anyways EVERY dress I tried on I took pics and sent to FMIL.... She hated every one.. Then she would call my FI and complain to him about my pics, color style, anything and everything..
FI finally got tired of it and told her that I could go naked if i wanted.. he didnt care he wasnt marrying my dress or anything else he was marrying me. This pissed her off so much that she then called me telling me that I am brain washing her son against her.. I hadnt talked to him since that morning when he went to work.. And when he left we werent talking about anything wedding..
After this last weekend we have totally changed the wedding completely.. She had the nerve to send out Invitations to everyone in her family, friends and co-workers. My FI and I are paying for this wedding, no one else.. We got a call from a family member asking why she was suppose to contact my FMIL to RSVP.. I had no clue what she was talking about.. Then we were told.. OMG did my FI blow up.. We have been planning this wedding to suit a little of everyone. We are not fancy people by any means, were laid back relaxed... simple..
So FI and I said screw it.. Changed the venue, food everything..
Now we are soo less stressed and happier about our wedding...
WOOOO HOOOO

  • I can not believe your FMIL sent out her own invitations to YOUR wedding!?!... that is unbelievable! Literally i can not believe she thought that was a good idea. Good for you guys for taking back your wedding! :D

    [QUOTE]Wow, your FMIL sounds BSC. Good on you two, telling her to piss off and mind her own business. Taking others' opinions into consideration is great and all, but who makes and sendes invites to someone else's wedding? What happened with the people she invited?

    I was able to get a list of who she invited, i called and politely explained she had no business inviting people to the wedding she wasnt planning and sorry but please do not come.lots of them were understanding..
