So i was telling my mom the other day that me and FH are saying our vows to each other during our first look, because both of us hate talking in front of people. Plus FH wants to be able to say his true emotions and such and i want to be able to cry if needed. She got upset and said she wants to be there for the first look because that's "basically when we are getting married"
I explained to her that not even the bridak party would be around us during the first look and vows. They would be waiting a bit away and wouldn't even be able to hear us so we can have our moment. It'll just be us, and photographer and videoGrapher.
Shes upset that she can't hear our vows, but this is what FH and I decided we wanted to do. How do i explain to her that this is an intimate moment for FH and I and literally no one else will be there? She can also watch the video of our vows once we get it.
I understand where she's coming from, but we just want our private vows and will still be saying the generic ones in front of everyone.
