Re: Wedding 6 month away. Big Question
OMG, my mom is a momzilla. From the moment I got engaged she has had a problem with everything wedding related
1. I didnt wait long enough (originally it was April 08, which was 30 months from when we got engaged)
2. Why was I looking to book all my vendors when I did. According to her I was way to early.
3. Why was I spending so much. She is obviously stuck on old prices because she doesnt understand that I shopped around and got great prices.
4. Why such a large bridal party
5. Contradictory to #4, why dont we have so and so in it.
6. We have our church witness papers that need to be signed and she is telling me who I should have sign it!
Its just like, why cant she just be happy with me and bond like we should be doing at this point in our lives! I understand what you are going through

Re: Wedding 6 month away. Big Question
My aunt was very similar to this- very nitpicky and also argumentative as well.
I think in a sense they feel like they're losing us- I know my aunt is like this (not because she admitted it) by her comments like 'You'll be too busy after you get married to come and see me' 'You're too busy with your in laws to spend time or call me'.
Little does she know I am going to keep in touch.

I get, 'I don't know how we got married in 1974 without a (Insert any modern day amenity here such as limo, videographer, guest hotels, church programs)
Your Number 3 is sooo true. FH parents actually compared their tuxedo prices to ours....W..T..F..? They were married in 1972!!!
My mom's biggest nagging complaint is weight. I had 3 strawberries the other day and she asked me if I should be eating that. Mind you, not a twinkie, or a cookie, but strawberries.

Re: Wedding 6 month away. Big Question
My mom and I stopped talking about the wedding plans cause it caused lots of fights. My sis stepped in and smoothed things over but I still keep it limited. She feels I should not be having a big second wedding and that I should use the money instead to buy a house. She has a lot to say about how I am spending my money. I have lived on my own for 20 yrs now, I can handle it.
