There was an argument recenlty about the slideshow. I was going to put it together. I have the songs picked out and everything. I also didn't want it very long. We went to get pictures of my FI and the MIL got upset because she wanted to hire someone and she had her song and this was "her thing" and she had her own ideas. She contributed some money and is decorating the sanctuary how she thinks would be nice. My mom and I are paying for almost all the wedding though. Am I so wrong to have the slideshow how I want it?
I would be okay with letting the guy make it, but if I did I don't think I would be able to tell him what I wanted because she would take over because she bought it. I wasn't expecting this to be a big deal. Oh boyyy
Re: MIL Problems
I'd cut out the slideshow altogether too....just not worth it.

I can't wait for the "im getting a divorce" post in 5 years or so because your husbands were fed up with your disgusting chair asses from playing on the knot all day and getting fired 4-5 times for not doing any work. you guys are all winners!! ~ Laur929
Is there really no way to compromise? It seems like such a small thing to get worked up about. Maybe she wanted it hired because she doesn't know what to do. Let her help put together the song and slides she wants. Then put your song and pics.

That's what I suggested too... I said she could pick out whatever pictures she wanted. I was just going to have one 6 minute song though to make it short and sweet. I guess I'll have to wait to see how this turns out.
[QUOTE]Sorry ignore the sanctuary part. I was just rambling about the things we agreed she could do...

This makes it sound like you are just tolerating her. This is her son getting married. She's excited and wants to contribute. Why can't you work together on something? The slideshow being something? It doesn't have to be either her or you. It can be both of you.
It fits the length, AND it talks about mothers in it!
my sister made one for her moh speech. it was four slides long. before she cued it up, she turned to me and said, "don't get mad, mmkay?" and then whipped around and started her speech.
6 minutes, 6 minutes, 6 minutes, Doug E Fresh you're on.
ONONON.
