If you had to hand over complete wedding planning control to either your fiancé(e) or your parents, who would you choose??

Would you rather let your partner or your parents plan the wedding?

Next Question: Spend a day with your mother-in-law or spend a day with your father-in-law?

    Partner since he knows what I like, but my mom would get it done

    Definitely my fiancé! He knows exactly what I like and I know he would do a good job.

    PARTNER. As much as he is hopeless at planning anything, my parents are narssicists and it would be all about them.

    Out of everybody I would pick my FMIL. I watched her plan my FSIL's wedding a few years ago, and it went amazing!! I am so lucky to have her help on my big day Smiley smile

    I'd let him do it any day!!! I actually thought about telling him he had the reigns to plan it and gave him the budget but hes a procrastinator and wed end up having everything done on the side of the road somewhere and my fat squishiness would have been in what I'm wearing now (shorts and a tee or pants and a tee). I mean, hes wearing cargo pants for our thing next year so.....😱😱😱😱😱 but we all deserve to be comfortable. At least they're not gonna be camo because noopppeeee

    I'm probably in the minority but I would hand over the reigns to my parents. My mom knows both my style and my FH's. My FH is not much of a planner, or into little details.

    My partner. He would probably wouldn't do any decorations but he would make sure the food was good at least Smiley xd My mom knows my style but I don't think she would keep it as true to my vision.

    He is my partner, isn't he? This isn't my parents wedding! He already picked the menu. So I trust my love to plan it. He can ask my advice though. . .

    My partner because even though he would plan the most expensive last minute lazy royal esk (maybe GOT themed) wedding, it would be beautiful and magical with style. My parents don't have style hahaha

    My parents for sure. I love my husband, but he is clueless when it comes to planning anything.

    I'd say my husband but he didn't like much wedding planning so I will go with my parents.

    Partner. He’s super picky but never gets anything done. We’d end up married at the courthouse alone because he wouldn’t send invites.

    My parents (mom). We have similar elegant tastes. I love my hubby but he has no taste when it comes to wedding planning. Luckily he picked a bride who knows what she’s doing. And I got it from my momma Smiley smile

    I love DH, but he's not a very good planner. That's my job. I probably would have turned it over to my stepmother, though we have very different tastes. I trust her judgment, though.
