We're Paying Though!

Both girls said it right! We are paying mostly for our wedding, my mother has bought somethings that I have said I liked when she was in the hospital for 10 days straight. She was bored she said. His dad said he would pay for the tent, table and chairs back in July and......let's just say I am not waiting any longer. People like to give us their opinions too. We want an outdoor wedding even though it's more expensive we have a lot more freedom to do what we want than if we were in a hall which would be cheaper. Its a struggle and the struggle is real.

I think "no thank you" is a perfectly fine answer! You can try something like "thanks for the suggestion, I'm not sure it fits into our plans but I'll certainly consider it", or "that idea sounds very nice and I'll give it some thought" or skip right to something more definitive like "thank you for the idea but I'm pretty excited about the plans I've already set" or "that's a really fun idea but it won't work for us".

Wow! That's crazy that other's are trying to plan your day! I guess it happens all the time with family though doesn't it!? Just tell them, "Thanks for the ideas, we'll add them to the list and see what will fit into the budget" and then don't do them, of course! It's your day.
