So, my FH and I have been engaged for about 2 months and we are so close to finalizing our date in 2010. My mother, however, wants us to get married in 2011, for both personal and work-related reasons. She told me she wouldn't be able to concentrate on wedding planning with me because she'd be so involved with those other things. Now, the FH and I and his family don't want to put it off that long. And we have our hearts set on our 2010 date. My mom, on the other hand, is practically begging me to have the wedding in 2011. She says this is a once in a lifetime opportunity for her and she wants to be able to focus on the planning. She gets cold and sour with me whenever I stand firm and say we want to keep in 2010, but we would consider 2011. But back when we got engaged, she wasn't really all that happy about it. She was very negative. To this day, she still hasn't asked about the proposal or the story behind my ring. I love my mother and I want to make her happy, but should I sacrifice the date we want to please her? I know if I give up and choose a date in 2011, my FH and I will be very disappointed. If I go ahead with my date, my mother will be very disappointed. It’s like a lose-lose situation either way…advice, anyone?
