Went to get my sister measured today for her bridesmaid dress with my mum and then we went into town and bought both her shoes and a bad for me although I didn't think taht a bride needed a handbag my mother said that I did!! Everything was lovely and we were all getting on really well I had a lovely time.
We were meant to go to look at mother of the Bride outfits this afternoon but over lunch Mum just laid into my sister saying she was over excercising, her boyfriend was using her and he was obviously embarrassed of her as he hadn't asked her to marry him. Obviously I thought all this was a bit harsh and tried to tell my Mum to back off which went down like a lead balloon but with a bit of subject changing by Dad and me we navigated through and although sister was upset we thought everything was ok.
I then bought out two invitation ideas that I had made as a previous attempt had been micked by my Dad who said he'd be embarrassed to send them out!! Anyway the new designs went down well and I thought that we all agreed on the smaller of the two as we could buy card that size and therefore there would be less cutting down etc. Suddenly Mum decided she liked the larger one of the two and as she was sending them out it was her decision. I thought it was our wedding and H2B said he did not like the larger one suddenly it was "nothing to do" with him and it was the parents of the brides choice as to what invites were sent out. Now I don't mind which one I make I just want them both to be happy but taht is not going to happen what should I do apease her and upset him or make the smaller ones and make her lump it.
If i'm being unreasonable tell me all suggestions how to resolve this issue will be gratefully recieved. x
