Is Your Family Interfering with Your Wedding Planning?

You’re not alone in this one! Most brides and grooms argue with their families while planning their wedding. And although sometimes you would like nothing more than to remind everyone that this is your big day, and you want to do it your way, take a deep breath, and deal with it differently. Here’s how:

• Listen:  Listening to everyone’s advice and ideas does not mean you should act on them, but it will give them the feeling that you actually care about their opinion.

• Be Patient: Your in-laws might be a little too opinionated, but keep in mind that they will always be in  your life and the wedding is just for one day, so be patient and earn their respect by letting certain things go, and choosing your battles.

• Pressure: Don’t feel pressured to have a luxurious wedding, because this is not what this day is about! Stay calm and plan a wedding that suits you and your families’ budget.
