Advice: They had their dream wedding but a second one is starting to feel like a nightmare.
I’ll wait. Pending the other half of the story, I am 100 percent pro-war.· When we were wedding planning, my mother-in-law had several suggestions and was REALLY bothered that we weren’t taking her up on some of them. And my husband quietly took her aside and said, “Listen. This is what she wants. This is ours. Her choice is the one that is important, and I’m on her side.” Without that attitude, there is a strong chance we would not have gotten married.
· If the mother-in-law “wants a bigger wedding” then she should get engaged or renew her vows. Problem solved. · Start the war! Don’t feed the ego! If you give in to this she will continue with bad behavior and unreasonable demands. We can all imagine what she will do for the first birthday of a future baby.· Say NO. It is gross to have a fake wedding when you are already married. And if your spouse can’t stand up to this, time to think about annulment unless you want this deranged doink running the rest of your life.
· This amused me and then frustrated me. Amused at the idea that mother-in-law is plunging ahead undeterred with planning this huge affair the couple doesn’t want, then frustrated because how can you call yourself grown enough to be married when you can’t say no? “Thank you for the sweet thought, but our wedding was just what we wanted. Please don’t spend any time, energy, or money planning something for us that we won’t attend.
· I think I’d take the opposite tack. If mother-in-law wants this big shindig and wants to pay for it, let her have at it. Take the role of the stereotypical groom and stay out of all decisions. Just ask where you need to make an appointment for fittings and what time you need to show up. Anytime anyone asks you any details about the wedding, just say, “Beats me, mother-in-law is planning everything. You’ll have to ask her. We had our wedding last year and this one is for her.
