Would you rather... hand over complete planning control to your parents or your future in-laws?

Definitely my parents. His parents have only been difficult and unhelpful. His dad doesn’t want to come if his moms there (obviously she’s coming) and his mom told him to take new engagement photos where he’s not smiling bc he looks old when he smiles (he’s 34 and he doesn’t).

Definitely my parents. My dad would 100% throw an awesome party! FMIL makes things about herself so if she were in charge she would do what she wanted without thinking of us.

Probably my future in-laws. My future mother in-law is so creative and crafty that she could do a lot of DIY things, she's also more similar to me than my own mother

That's hard. My mom is not involved in my life so she's out of the question. I feel like my dad would do an okay job, but he may invite a bunch of random people we wouldn't care for. My FH's dad is barely around, so I would trust him with planning. My FMIL is kind of narcissistic and loves when attention is on her, so I don't know about her. I would probably choose my dad.

Aww, that's awesome! It's great that she has similar style preferences, which probably makes planning easier!

Future in laws! My mom is super cheap about everything and pretty boring. His mom however is the party animal lol. She actually helped us find the venue

I already gave control of decorations and the menu to my mom. My fiance and I are both laid back and dont have a lot of opinions on decorations, and moms paying for the food anyway, she even helped find the venue!

Wow, that's so nice that she is already helping you with your wedding!

My parents!

Future in laws! My fiance's mom is so sweet and caring, I know she would make sure our day was everything we envisioned the best she could.

Probably my in-laws. At least my future sister in law is creative. My parents not so much.

My parents if I could, but lost my Dad a year and a half ago and my Mom is very ill.

My parents for sure... My mother in law is much older and wouldn't know what I want.

My dad and his wife. Especially if that means they are paying for it to! My step mom is creative.

My parents. In laws would probably get decorations from the dollar store and cook the food themselves.

Most definitely my parents. His parents have a very different idea of what we should be doing. My parents would know more of what we want without having to ask, even though they would.

My in-laws without a doubt, my family had little to no interest while H's was all about the wedding and every other event associated.

My parents I guess, but I wouldn't let anyone in my family do it.

My future in laws! I feel like my parents are a little too old fashioned for my taste, lol.

I would say my Mom. My dad lives half the country away.
