i just want to cry

well i really want to like end this wedding,, If i would have know that his family would have ruined it for me i would have never said yes. HIs parents are making us fight like crazy!!!

Couple of weeks ago i got into a fight with his mom because his dad wanted to have afamily reunion at my wedding and his dad is depressed that his family isnt close so he wanted to invite the world in our expense and have a family reunion.
Also everyday from that day my fh would talk to his dad and it it seem like everytime he does so we are add someone else to the list. and im getting so mad over this. We sent the invites out and now i have to send out more. It so fausting that we fight all the time because his dad would talk to him and not me and then we have to add another one on. His dad has alot of issues that he needs to see someone and he doesnt. Well tonight i put my foot down and i told my fh no and that the reason why we arent inviting that person is b/c we have an age limit and that we cant have kids at the wedding because if one comes they all want to come and im not having it. so we got into a fight and he hung up on me. He is so daddys boy and if they both dont get there way then they stomp there feet intil they can. so now fh isnt talking to me and im so upset that if u knew this was going to happen with his family then i wouldnt have wasted $18000 and we would have just eloped but his father told him that if he did that then he wouldnt talk to him and he would disowen him.
why does my wedding have to be so difficult.........

I feel your pain. I actually tried to cancel my wedding a few months ago but we would've lost our deposit if nobody booked the date. We wanted to elope lol. My family is also driving me crazy. Hang in there though, cool off before speaking to FH and explain to him that you really just want people you know and are close to there and you'd rather save the money for a great HM, house or something that you and him can enjoy as a couple.

Dont cry....I had this problem too FH keep inviting people and we already invited almost 300 people....FH needs to realize that the more people the more expensive and its not about his dad cause its not his wedding it about what u and FH want and dad needs to stop interfering

OMG I so relate to you and your pain.
I am having the same Issue.
His father wants to invite the whole damn family and Im trying to save as much as I can.
I damn well made it clear that his dad better pay for most of it because its B.S!!!!
You gotta put your foot down, dont let em walk over you, its your wedding not theirs.
Hang in there and be strong,
thats what I am trying to do, and its helps a little when FH is behind you.
I kept telling my FH how its makes me upset, so he talked to his dad and he will be paying most of our RH count.

ty ladies, i tried talking to FH and he got mad and thought that i was bad mouthing his family and got more upset. Im going to give him everything now and let him do it and see how much stress us ladys go throught, all the man do is just sit there and watch us stress out

Argh why must people turn YOUR day into what they want. Is his dad even offering to help pay for any of the added expenses that come along with more guests?
can you tell him that your RH caps at a certain amount people ( you can say for fire code reasons) ....I mean sometimes you just have to do what you have to do!

I am so sorry. it is a hard balance trying to have the day you want without causing WW3 with the in-laws
