FSIL

Tough call - I'd thank her for her suggestions but tell her what you've decided to do (when they contradict). 'Yes, the jewelry boxes are a lovely idea, but I'd really prefer to do X'.

If she persists, you can simply ask her to respect your decisions....is she married?

Our appointment is tomorrow. I spent over 4 hours last night planning our albums, 3 parent albums + 20 extra photos for family and friends. Whew! So in addition to our package, we're spending nearly another $600.....We'll see how it goes - I gave up worrying. There's not much I can do. Besides, I'm trying to be positive. The clause is their 'right', doesn't mean they have to exercise it. So, we'll see how it goes!
