    Guilty... sorta - I had a budget as my FH and I are paying for most of the wedding, however my dad wants to keep adding and finally I had to say enough I cannot afford this. They joked about it not being so serious and then told me they would help with half.

    Not really no. Just conversations. But I have 361 days to go, so there's plenty of time for that lol

    My mom hasn't really cared to ask if i needed help with anything, but my future MIL sends me pinterest things all day at least 3 times a week and I've never argued with either of them about wedding planning

    Luckily I haven’t argued with anyone about the wedding. Parent and in laws are very hands off but supportive when help is needed.

    Guilty. My mom is trying to live through me with trying to cater to her tastes and styles. I don’t blame her, wedding planning is fun, but if it’s not her style, it’s hard to please her.

    Nope. They all know I’m too stubborn to change my mind.

    I sort of did.i felt like my dad thought it was so easy. Where I'm from it is unheard of to pay less than $400 a table per wedding. He felt he could get it for $300 and i don't think he understood it was because there's a difference between banquet and family dinner menus. And then we had a spat over upgrading our menu as he felt it would be cheap to. Basically he underestimated costs of weddings.
    I get pretty annoyed with my future mother in law but I don't say anything. Mostly because she's not being mean or annoying purposefully

    Nope! Not going to do it!! If they even begin to say something I may not like, I'm getting up and walking away!

    Yes right in the beginning we argued about location but we are paying for it so no one else had a choice.

    Mmm not yet. I think there have been some opinions that have been thrown our way that we are automatically like, "No, that will not be happening." So far it was more with my own parents and discussing prices with my dad and with my mom helping me go dress shopping in initially...I have learned that there are certain things that we can talk about openly (because everyone's opinions are literally everywhere).

    I wouldn’t say it was heated. I was just annoyed in the moment. My mom cane up with a list of people I should invite. I looked it over and honestly didn’t know who some people were. My mind was already made up at that point. They weren’t getting an invitation. I didn’t want to hurt her feelings but my fiancé and I are paying for 90% of the wedding and I don’t feel comfortable inviting people and then scratching my head as to how I would even introduce them to my husband on the day of the wedding.
