    Mine for sure. My mom has a lot of her own very strong opinions and she's very stubborn. She also is waaay more stressed out about this planning process than I am. She's already a bride-zilla and she's not even the bride.

    Mine. My dad is paying for everything so I ask him his opinion on everything. My fiancé’s mom barely believes that we’re serious about being engaged because we got engaged so soon, only 13 months into dating AND knowing each other

    His parents only because he thought he was doing the right thing. His words not mine “ I was young and thought I was doing the right thing by marrying someone who was pregnant with my child”. Plus his mom Nd step dad say we should just get married in Vegas I have to put them in there place by telling them no body is going to rob me out of a wedding just because he has been married once don’t mean I have to have an half ass wedding.

    I am doing the planning myself, and my parents pretty much agree with everything I am deciding, and they know me and my style and love the ideas I am trying to execute. However, his mom is constantly asking questions about what and why I am doing things a certain way, so I think she has opinions, but she isn't necessarily voicing them to me.

    Both sets of parents have been really good with everything but I would say mine has had a few more opinions than his.

    My parents have unfortunately not said a single thing about our wedding! Haven’t asked about a date or anything... Thankfully my FMIL is very involved in our planning! She’s been incredibly helpful, which I appreciate so much. I already call her mom! 💖

    I'd have to say his mom.. currently giving us an issue about the venue we want. My mom has her opinions but has told us it is our wedding and we do what we feel is right for us.

    HIS!!!! Which is annoying. I mean, I appreciate them and their help, but I need his mom to back off just a bit. She had her dream wedding, so she needs to let me have mine.
