So my FMIL wants to plan the RD. Fine and good - however, she wants to book it at my RH. I don't know how I should feel about this. My RH is beautiful and it would be in a different room, but wouldn't it take away from the RH the next day?? Andif I don't want it there, how do I tell her that in a nice way since she is paying?!?!
Help!!!!

my mom wanted to do brunch the next day at giorgio's and i quickly vetoed that!!! Just tell her they have a wedding the night before (which i'm sure they do) and they won't do another event on the premise. I'm pretty sure this is their policy anyway, especially if the wedding is big and they have to open the extra CH room... HTH!

I DEF would not want that. I think it would take away from your wedding the next day. Im sure you can find a nice way to tell her that it would be best if it was held elsewhere in order to keep the venue a surprise for the guests. Hopefully shes understanding!

of course they told her that- they want the money!
Look at a few places and give her suggestions- you and FH should let her know that you really would like it elsewhere

Re: Need Advice!!!!
Sorry I'm on my phone and can't quote. FH told me this was her idea and I told him that I absolutely HATED the idea. I supplied her a list of places with prices. She tried to justify having it at the RH by saying that only 20-30 ppl will see it, it'll be in a different room, and that outfits, flowers, etc make a wedding.
I don't want to be ungrateful, but I don't want it there - bridzilla or not - it's not happening.
Ugh.... I'm just so fed up!

H-E-L-L NO!!!!!!!!!!!!! i wouldn't want my guests to see my RH the day before the wedding! pick somewhere else, there are millions of other nice places to go to. I would tell FH to nip that in the bud

Re: Need Advice!!!!
See my venue only does one event at a time as long as the event booked (a wedding) is over 150 ppl.
I told FH he needs to speak with her - I'm so unhappy about this - I mean why wouldn't she see the big deal in this.
