Why are the people who are supposed to be the ones who make wedding planning easier (family) the ones who nitpick every single little thing? We went our invites out a little early, admittedly, as we have an earlier RSVP date. Most of the reasoning for this is my sister planned her wedding last minute, and it's a few weeks before mine, and so we're losing a lot of time for getting stuff together and organized. Everyone knows this, and has been really cool, and so you'd think this would certainly extend to our families, right? Of course not. FMIL is on FI's case about how we sent our invites out too early, and it's "not how things are done". It's not like we're making things harder for everyone and having people do something really difficult, like come find their invitations in a puzzle and then send their RSVP by carrier pigeon, it's just all a little earlier. I don't think it's that big of a deal. And am so annoyed that FMIL is making a stink about it. Gah!
Deep breaths... is it October 7th yet? I am ready for this whole thing to be over!
