I mean like I said, it is MY wedding NOT hers. im I right on going off on her or am I wrong? please help…thanks

Answer #1

You have to look her in the face and tell her “Mother this my MY wedding, not yours, I appreciate your opinion but I would like to do this myself.” And tell her to be happy for you and your union. You just have to tell her straight up how it is. Some moms are like that lol.

Answer #2

Just sit down and say mom,I love you but you’re really beginning to make me uncomfortable and I just want to have a great day with you and everybody else. This is one of the most important days of my life, so please just let me do it the way I want and be my mom and be my support system…

Answer #3

You’re right to go off on her. Wait till you’re married; she’s going to become a real control freak like my grandmother. Have fun. She’ll probably give you crap about it for years.

thanks
