I see SOOOO MANY posts here about, "My mom doesn't like my X so I have to get a different one," or, "FMIL told me I have to invite 17 more people, so now we need to figure out where to get the money," or, "Betty Loo Moo can't make it to the shower, so we had to change the date even though the invites already went out!"
Meanwhile, my FMIL picked out a whole set for a sand ceremony and I'm like, "No. We aren't doing that. I'm not bringing sand back and forth to another country," and my mom is like, "Your dress is too heavy for a beach wedding; you need something lighter," and I'm like, "No, I like this one," and FFIL is like, "You shouldn't have the wedding in Mexico; not all of my family will be able to afford it," and we're like, "That's unfortunate."
How come so many people cater to what other people want at their wedding? Or am I just a jerk?
