Next question: Would you rather... have a dress that looks amazing in person but so-so in pictures or vice versa?

    Hi Sunny! Do you think they would be able to plan your wedding in a similar style to your wedding plans?

    Yes! My mom and I work really well together and have similar taste. FILs are very sweet but don't get out much. My parents attend a lot of events and would probably just dial it in a little better. Smiley smile

    This is a tough one..on one hand my mom knows me very well and knows what details I would feel more important than others. But on the other hand FMIL has a lot of connections and multitasking skills that would come in handy.

    Absolutely my parents. My mom has been a wedding planner for 20+ years. That is an easy decision.

    I would definitely choose my parents because they know all my likes and dislikes, all our traditions and I love their sense of humor 🤗

    My parents, but only because they’d just defer to me and either way I’d get a Taiwanese wedding.
