My fmil has been trying to dictate the photos that will be taken after the wedding and at that reception. My FH has family all over the US and it will be about 60-70 guests that are his family of 170 total. My FMIL says that after the wedding ceremony, she wants to take photos of each of the different groups of families with the professional photographer I hired. She estimated that it will take about 2 hours to complete this session which is JUST extended family. These two hours do not include our immediate family nor does it include our couples portraits. I don't know if this is normal or if I should accept it and shut up. I am highly betting that most of the guests will not be happy about taking this many group shots and the others that are not included will have to wait 2 plus hours just to get the reception started. I don't think that it is ok to use the time that I am paying for the photographer to take EXENTENDED family photos. I will be grateful for all guests that have come out to celebrate with us but this issue is giving me anxiety.
Suggestions on what I should do?
