Hi all-
My wedding is about 10 months away and my fiancé have been having fun planning it together--my mom is paying for much of the wedding and my fiancé and I are going to cover the rest. I have found myself getting increasingly annoyed at the smallest things/questions/comments, especially from my fiancé's family. I wasn't necessarily expecting them to pay for anything but the way they discuss the wedding planning, they're acting like they have a stake in it aaaaand they don't (they are financially very well-off, more so than my mom! So that's not the issue). Luckily my mom is very chill and while she's excited, she said it's my and my fiancé's choice what we do for the wedding and she's just happy she can help out financially. How do all of you handle a lot of questioning/prodding/comments about you and your fiancé's choices for the wedding, especially from people who are not at all involved financially and don't seem to understand there's a budget, etc.? I don't want to alienate my fiancé's family, but I'm also not interested in 10 months of them critiquing our decisions (many of which are being dictated by our budget/venue size)...
