Me and my partner have been together 7 years and have 2 children. My family have been find of him hardly talk to him unless they want something so when we decided to get married. They offered to help pay as they just got a big 60000 payout. Mum wanted me to have this lavish wedding but partner and I are very private and quiet keep ourselves to are ourselves so now as we keep mentioning the wedding none of my family says anything so keeps trying to put me off (we decided to do our wedding in carribean)
Mum keeps trying to add people to our list and when I say no she's offended and stops talking to me for days so now we've just decided to pay for wedding ourselves have ceremony and maybe have a dinner sometimes mum likes attention and if not on her she sulks and brings down the whole mood. Also my uncle who is so wonderful to me doesn't talk to my mum will be there scared an argument will break out.
So really now do I just get married on beach with ceremony and go to dinner with husband and children after or do I include my close family and invite (also many conversations have told me you can't go to the carribean and invite people and not feed them)
I'm so fed up with the whole wedding at this point but that would really upset family I do love and care about if I was just to elope. Any suggestions
