We are having a no kids allowed wedding. And my mother is giving me a hard time about it because she thinks her fiances grandkids and my 2nd cousins who I see maybe once every 4 years will feel left out. My parents each paid $5,000 (so $10,000 total) and the wedding will be about $22,000. So my fiance and I are paying for the majority of it.

We went to our first evening wedding where no children were invited. Of course there was one 2-3 year old boy and his mother that came to the wedding. The boy was undisciplined and since I didn't see a father I assume that she caters to little Johnny. The boy talked thru the entire ceremony even though mom just telling him to hush. I was close enough to hear him talk back to her and of course she never picked him up and left, she just sat there ruining it for the several of us. I love an adult evening and it would of been better if she had paid for a babysitter as the rest of us did.

im getting married abroad (where I live)as my fiance is european. My mother however wants a whole nother reception and ceremony recreation back in america for people who can't come. Is this not ridiculous? I don't mind having a party/mini reception back at home post wedding, but I don't think it is necessary to wear the dress again and recreate the ceremony. advice please!!

My mother is coming bridesmaid dress shopping with us, I'm glad she's excited to be involved but she told me she was coming to make sure I didn't pick a dress that was too old for my 2 younger sisters. they are 20 & 23 & I and the other bridesmaids are 25... It's not like they're junior bridesmaids. It kinda sucks she doesn't trust my judgement...

my mother thinks showers are tacky and didn't come to mine. I am hurt and angry

FI & I want to register for our honeymoon, I love to plan vacations! But his mother says we also need to register at a store for people who don't like the idea of a honeymoon registry. But I know then no one is going to use the travel registry I already spent a lot of time researching :[

I am so glad for FMIL. She is a nice and gentle person and I love her. The last time I spoke with my mother she told me I made her want to die. FMIL is not a replacement - that would be an insult. She is an upgrade!!

My future mother in law is evil and I do mean evil. On thanksgiving in front of all my family she started to yell at me about what my problem is with her. Then she told my mother that she does not want a daughter in law. My fiance dislikes his mother too. Is it wrong to not invite her to the wedding??? Or at least not to the Wedding shower? I don't want her drama.

If there are *any* problems with his mother now-- at all-- there will be plenty more later.
