My mom is very involved in the planning. She knows about every little detail going into the wedding. She's come with me every single time I went dress shopping and is even coming dress shopping with me and the girls this weekend for BM dresses. She is also graciously (well I didn't really give her a choice LOL) keeping all the WR stuff in her house for us.

I go to her for opinions on everything!

My mom's pretty involved. I tell her all my ideas and she gives me her honest opinion. We didn't take her to look at all the rh's but we did bring her to chcc the day we booked (dad, step-dad, brothers and in-laws came too). She also came dress shopping and bm dress shopping with me. We are really close so I wouldn't want it any other way.

My mom was really involved. I always went with what I wanted either way, but I ran everything by her for her opinion and I always shared everything with her, and she came to almost every vendor appointment and she visited all the RHs with us when we were looking. She helped out so much throughout the whole year we were engaged!

Re: How involved is your mother in the wedding planning?

Both my parents came to look at rh since their paying for it. I went once without my mom to look at dresses but she was there when I decided on the one. I went and did photographers and she came back with me. She did come for limos but my mom keeps saying we have time since my wedding is 10 months away but she aggrevates me sometimes that she's not more excited about planning this wedding and if she has something unimportant when I'm going to look at something she won't reschedule the other thing that's what annoys me
