Control

Today, my future mother-in-law informed me that since she is putting money into our wedding, that all the planning and arrangements are under her authority. FML

Have a smaller wedding and tell her that you can't accept her help if it's conditional. This isn't the way to start a marriage, with her asserting her authority over your decisions.

I think it's worth waiting another year or two to save the money yourselves.

One of my friends is in a similar situation (although it is her own mother wanting to control the wedding). I volunteered to do her invitations for her, however she wanted them, so her parents couldn't touch that aspect of the wedding. With my own wedding, my hubby and I paid for most of it. Got the wedding I wanted for under 2k. :)

I would nicely thank her and then say we'll pay for our own wedding. Whatever you can afford will still be better than what someone else wants

So, you're lucky! At least you have a mother in law. Both my husband and my mom died when we were little - I would give anything for a mil. Maybe stop bitching and get to know her better and you will have fun planning the wedding.

How did you get married if your husband died when you were little? Is this a Stewie and Olivia type situation where you took an oath in front of all your stuffed animals?

#266 Yes, but she won't GET that dream wedding. She'll get what her M-I-L thinks the wedding should be.
