ARGH... Long VENT

Long Vent

FH and I have been together for over 5 years. I have had a great relationship with FH family......
Until we started planning our wedding..... now the true cards are coming out.

FMIL- insists on paying for this and that. GREAT, I will not argue. So I call her the other day to touch base about RD.

She tells me that she was planning on working on that next month.
WHAT- We are getting married in less then three months and she hasnt even started looking into a restaurant to hold it.
HELLO!!!!!! Wake up!!!!
So I was talking to FH about this last night. I ask him to bring it up with his mom to get more info. Kinda want him to light a firecracker under her butt!!!:
He says and I quote 'whats the big deal, im sure she will find someplace. Do we really need to know where the RD will be now we do have a few more weeks.

Hello- Its communion time, college graduations, retirement parties....... endless amount of things and being held on a Friday night.

Then she calls me this morning and asks how many people my side of the family will be invited to the RD.
FH entire family is flying in from out of town, they are all invited. I tell her about 15-18 people max. She said that was way too many people. There are no restaurants that will be able to hold that many people and I have to cut my list for RD. Keep in mind FH side will have 30+

Im DONE- Sorry such a long vent!!!

I understand your frustration. But, I am 99% sure you won't have a problem finding a place. Yes it's communion, graduation, retirement time but those happen on the weekends. Wedding rehersals happen during the week, typically on Tuesdays, Wednesday and Thursdays.

ugh that is annoying. maybe you can start calling some places to find out pricing/availability (which stinks that it will give u more to do) but then you can take it back to her and show her what u found....then maybe she will get a move on!

OMG! How irritating! I'm sure you don't want to step on any toes, but she is kinda too relaxed about it! Hopefully she will get her A$$ in gear and start some planning!
