I have some family drama between my mom and my aunt so I totally understand. I'd honestly tell her that if she has an attitude, she doesn't participate. And then just stop telling her wedding stuff. I love my mom but she can be A LOT and I'd rather have a peaceful day that I wish she'd participate in instead of having an insane dramatic day that is memorable only because it's miserable.

If I were you, I'd keep all the wedding prep to myself. Don't fan the flames of the drama, just rise above it and ignore it.
Happiness is the best revenge.
Live your life, share your joy with those that appreciate it.
Don't let her steal your shine. Carry on good luck🤞 sometimes, the hardest things as an adult, is realizing that just because they are family, it doesn't mean they have our best interest at heart.. Sounds like she has some issues, in her own life to work out.
Hang in there❤

Hi Jordin!
I’m really sorry you have to worry and deal with this sort of behaviour.
My best advice, as Anna said, is to try your best to rise above it and try to ignore it. This will be difficult, however, you deserve to not have her negativity and behaviour ruin the day for you and your FS. And if she already has decided she doesn’t want to participate in wedding prep, that’s a good excuse to keep her out of your plans so you can plan stress-free!
If you know there is going to be a lot of drama, have you considered hiring a day of coordinator, if it’s within your budget? Perhaps briefing him/her on the situation in case damage control is needed could be a great option. This way you can separate yourself from the drama completely and enjoy your day.
