I was supposed to get married July 22 of this year. But my mom (I love her dearly, but I'm going crazy) Decided that her and my dad couldn't afford to have my big wedding anymore, so they cancelled the venue. My FH and I said, ok, thats fine. We will find another place, so instead of having the beautiful 150 guest wedding that I wanted, we are down to having 25 people (including me, fh, parents, and bridal party) at the local Olive Garden for the reception, and no where to have the ceremony. My mom decided all that, without even giving me a call to see if I liked the idea. She bought my dress a few months ago, and is now telling me that she can't afford to make the payments on my dress anymore, unless we don't have a reception at all, or if everyone pays for their own food (at olive garden) I love her so much, but she has stressed me to the limit of being physically ill. I'm not a spoiled brat, and I know what can and can't be accomplished for this wedding. I've tried giving them money to pay for it, but they refuse it. They say they can't afford to give me a wedding, but they just bought them both $800 computers, and a brand new $1000 tv. I can't deal with it anymore, has anyone else been thru a similar situation. I'm the only child, I thought that my parent's would want to at least let me be happy on my wedding day. Am I in the wrong to want to just run away to Vegas with the FH?
