How involved is your Fhs parents....

Original post by Das142

in helping you plan?

Mine hasnt really been involved much. I send them emails to keep them up with what we have been doing so they can never say we left them out. They ask once and a while how things are going.

Very, they are very interested in everything. Which doesnt bother me only b/c my parents just say 'whatever you want'!!!

Which when you need help deciding DOES NOT help at all! But they are also not pushy about anything!

Not very much at all. Occasionally FMIL will ask some questions about the planning so far. That's the extent of it!

Not involved at all. I mean FH has a weird relationship with them. he hates them knowing too much info. I basically tell them when things are booked. They usually don't ask any or too many questions. I'm okay with it. Less people involved = less headaches for me.

Somewhat-my FMIL and FSIL want to start getting more involved-so the next bridal to come up-we're going.

Not really involved at all. Getting them to talk about the wedding is like pulling teeth sometimes - basically if i don't bring anything up they don't ask It used to bother me at first but now I don't let it phase me.



ditto!! same thing here!

My FH's parents are a GODSEND!!!! FH's mom especially. She is a school teacher so she has the summer off and everyday before I go to work she asks if there is anything wedding related that she can do for me. She's not overbearing and judgemental. Whatever FH and I decide she loves and gives us really good input. FH & I both want to pay for this ourselves being that it's a 2nd time for both of us and had considerable help with the 1st ones but they still are insisting with giving $ toward the day. I thank God for them everyday!!! for the Future In Laws!!!

Same here,but I think it might be beause they had a lot going on, they recently just moved down to Florida, so I don't know it this will make them more or even less envolved.

They're great. His mom picks up catalogs and magazines, she even bought me my wedding planner.

Right now...they're no help at all....but I can't really blame them. Their daughter is getting married this year, so I understand their focus on THAT wedding.....

My FMIL already told me that since my mom lives kinda far (florida) if I ever want someone to go shopping with or just bounce Ideas off of, she'll fill in. I REALLY REALLY appreciated the offer, but i'm not sure that i'd feel as comfortable with her....obviously.
