My mother-in-law won't stop complaining and dropping not-so-suttle hints about how much she wishes we'd incorporate this or that in our wedding. Example? "Why aren't we having a powerpoint video with pictures of us when we were kids? All the grandparents (and I) love that." How about because we're having pictures scattered throughout the reception hall and the powerpoint is cheesy and boring. "Why don't you guys want to have a bar? If you don't, no one's going to come to your wedding... And if they do, they aren't going to stay long." Wow thanks for the support. If you're coming only for the drinking, why don't you go somewhere else.
I'm ready to slap her she's annoying on so many levels. We clearly and calmly explain why we've decided on whatever we've decided, and she can't leave it alone. She pushes and pushes like a 2 year old to get what she wants. I'm happy to have her give her opinion, but if the bride AND the groom clearly don't have the same excitement over your ideas and politely say "no", then leave it alone and go drive someone else up the wall!
PS: Thank you to my parents who have only very gently made suggestions and not gone any further. You're awesome.
