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?

Back to the Beginning: Would You Rather?

    Partner. It's his wedding too (and he knows me, what I would like and what I won't)

    I would hand it over to his mom & my mom with no problem because they know us & have more style than him...

    Partner. He knows me well and won't do anything to crazy like my parents likely would!

    My parents. Only because my mom knows what I’ve dreamed of for my wedding day so she would be able to pull it off!

    Very tough! Probably my mom because she'd ask for my sister's help for sure. And my sister and I kind of have the same vision.

    My partner for sure. He already has access to my pinterest and knows what I like and want, and is pretty responsible. Poor guy would turn to me for everything anyways though because we're getting married in my home country and he's never even been.

    My parents... My fiance has a hard time having an opinion about this stuff. He would have just preferred JOP the first month we got together. No thanks! I wanted a traditional wedding.

    Partner. This is about him too. Plus he and I just have basically the same tastes in décor and how we want everything to look. My parents would plan an all white, classic wedding. Which is the exact opposite of what we want!

    Oh god... neither lol! Like I know with the fiance, things would not get done on time, he'd pick the cheapest venue or the backyard, and is literally late to EVERYTHING. Planning is very much not his thing, he's not organized. My mom planning a wedding would be better but she'd plan her dream wedding and wouldn't consider what we want.. Well maybe, I say that but who knows, she could definitely do it better than my FH. That's for sure, but I'll stick to planning and grabbing them both to help. I promise I'm not a control freak, just a little OCD.
