Pre wedding stress and arguments

My shower was today. FH was driving me and texting his mom, I asked him to stop because he was swerving and we were running late. He was so snippy about it, I arrived trying hard to hide my tears. I had a wonderful time at the shower, then we went to dinner, and before we could get through dinner, he was arguing with me over laundry. By the time we left the restaurant, I was in tears for the second time today. He even called his mother and brought her into his drama, which makes me really uncomfortable. I know weddings are supposed to be stressful, but I was really looking forward to this day, which was supposed to be about love and celebration, and I just feel like it's been ruined. I am just so disappointed. Is this a bad sign? Or do other people have irrational arguments as they get closer to their wedding day? I just feel absolutely awful, and I feel like the entire day and everything that was good about it has been tainted with negativity.

I feel that there will definitely be some added stress as the day approaches. My FH and I have had some petty arguments in the past few weeks. I don't think it's a bad thing or something that should make you question the marriage. However, if this is something that he always does, or is unwilling to discuss how he's made you feel, then perhaps you should reevaluate rather or not that's something you want/willing to deal with for the rest of your life.

We are two weeks out and stress is running high ... sometimes floats into our relationship but never for long and his mom is never involved

I'm glad I'm not the only one. I just feel so defeated. I really wanted to have a good day and to enjoy my shower but I just feel like everything has been ruined.

Is there other things he's stressed out over? Seems like he's taking something out on you (maybe not on purpose, hope not). Try and talk to him about it. Next time he wants to text offer to drive. If I'm in the middle of text convo I tell my FH to drive instead - usually I drive because: anxiety. But I would rather he drive than me put us in position to get into a crash

These seem like pretty small things to have arguments over that make you cry. I'm suspecting either 1: you're very stressed and it's making you hyper sensitive. 2: he's also stressed and having a hard time coping. Probably both I'm going to guess.
