People who complain at weddings...

So my fiance and I went to a lot of weddings this past summer, and I was amazed by how many people sit at weddings and complain about ridiculous details (invitation designs, the cake, the size of the wedding party...).  I hate planning our wedding knowing that there are always people that will complain about the event.

How do you deal with the stress of complainers?  Has anyone had members of their wedding party who also seem less than thrilled to be a part of the festivities?  How did you deal with them?

    Ignore them! Really, I know it will still sit in the back of your mind and annoy you, but try not to let it. It isn't their wedding, they really shouldn't complain. Everyone has their own style and their own tastes. And at their wedding there will be/were things that other people don't like. As long as they aren't saying it directly to your face just ignore it. 

    And if someone is ballsy enough to say it to your face remark, "I'm sorry you feel that way. I don't." At least, that's what I would say.

    its your day - your paying for it and if they dont like it they can leave. Honestly I am sure people didnt love what I did at my wedding, but it was my choice and I just didnt hear it. Ignore them.

    complainers--don't worry about them. do what makes you happy, but try not to be rude

    wedding party--don't expect so much of them. it's your wedding, not theirs, so no one will be as excited as you are. they are only required to show up on the wedding day, anything extra that they offer to do is a bonus

    People who complain at weddings....are rude and not worth worrying about. You will be too busy focusing on the beauty of your day to even notice.

    Wedding party-tasharocks is correct. They are required to pay for their attire and show up on your big day. They will NEVER be as compelled by your wedding as you are, no matter how close you are.

    My mom was one of those people and it bothered me after the fact but the day of I didnt care because I loved the way everything looked. Ignore those people, every wedding has them.

    No one can please everyone all the time and who cares if they don't like it because it YOUR wedding not theirs.
