    Try and keep calm, let them have their say and then do what you want. That way they think you're listening to them lol. x

    Just remeber it your day. We are doing it entirely our way and if other people don't like it they don't have to come. Don't forget that we are here and you can rant to us as much as you like.

    As everyone else says its your day. Listern to them and then go with what you want. unfortunatly you will never please everyone, but just so long as it is the day that you want and will remember as being happy thats all that matters

    Listen to them, but stick to your guns. I had the same issues in the beginning of wedding planning- the amount of times I ended up curled up on my bed on the phone to h2b in tears!
    Just stick to your vision of your wedding- don't worry about coming off as a bridezilla, there isn't anything wrong with wanting the wedding you want.

    Eventually things will fall into place- my parents finally realised that I have good ideas and slowly relented on a lot of aspects.

    My fingers are crossed! And we're always here if you need a rant.

    I have the opposite problem, no-one seems interested in the slightest apart from one friend!

    Friends since 1999, together since 2007 :D

    Yep it's amazing how people who should feel priviledged they've even been invited, think they can dictate what you can and can't do. I've had a big bust up with family members after I received an ar$ey text message because I hadn't invited my cousins, daughters on/off boyfriend to the wedding breakfast. This was after I had explained that it was costing us £50pp. I admit I went psycho ballistic, but the bottom line is it's my wedding and I will invite who I want. Out of the 80 people we were having in the day, only 4 of those were our closest friends - my cousin did me a massive favour as they said they aren't coming now so I've already used there spaces for friends who have been there for us. Unfortunately I think most brides/grooms come across people who start throwing their weight around, you just have to stick to your guns.

    Oh jeez I hear ya!!!
    I have a few people that are a little bitter about me getting married.
    No way to say it without sounding big headed but I do modelling, travel a lot and have done some crazy stuff in my life and people got jealous or something, something I only found out about late last year!! Haha I'm pretty naive, free lovey and hardly think I'm all THAT so I never figured that was some of their issues :)
    I hate writing about me haha!
    However before I met Ray I was notorious for being single as the thought of being in a committed relationship terrified me. Not that I wanted to 'see' other people just I was always freaked out that I might make them unhappy but they'd stay with me anyway.
    So! My more snide-y acquaintances used to go in great detail of how happy they were in their marriages,with their pregnancy/children etc and now that I'm getting married all I'm getting is 'Oh well we did this and this', 'That's a stupid idea' or my personal favorite 'Nice dresses, think I'll get one from the same collection when we renew our vows' (grrr!) one of them has even had the cheek to assume she's a BM when I'm not even planning on inviting her to anything more than the night party!

    The only people you need to please is you and your hubby2b. We have one niece who is just having a few people to the ceremony and a meal at a restaurant and then they will have a big party a few weeks later. Another niece couldn't accomodate all the family, so the Uncles and nephews were told if they wanted to go to the ceremony and sit down meal they were more than welcome but if they weren't fussed to just come to the evening reception. Not one person bitched or moaned about it, so it really pi$$es me off when I hear stories on here about the grief that everyone gets. It just amazes me how something so special as a marriage, turns family members into complete and utter dic£ heads! And relax, rant over lol

    Don't have anyone tell you what to do, YOUR day YOUR way! i had similar problems which caused me to postpone my wedding this year i was meant to be getting married in September and am now getting wed in May next year! I've got a huge family H2B has hardly got any, But i cannot afford to have all my family there so i'm only having family that i'm close to! Weddings always seem to bring out the worst in families :( xx
