Wedding Planner

Who’s who in wedding planning?

I have often heard and read opinions of the bride not at all happy about the involvement of parents in the wedding preparations. So who’s who in wedding planning? Differences of age are involved, concepts, experiences, tastes and … stubbornness,  so that instead of parents to support their children to organize a  wedding exactly to their liking after their folly and pleasure, often they get  involved and they undermine the choices or, worse, lead them through  emotional blackmail to glorify their pleasure, demonstrating an incomprehensible selfishness. How do you avoid all these troubles?




Obviously, wherever there is a solution, but what is that? So where parents have the right to intervene? There are rules and traditions in this respect?
There were tradition  about parents planning the weddings of their children, but most often by their  own taste, so I don’t these traditions advantage the couple. There  are several types of relationship with parents depending especially  finance, but that is your wedding, regardless of any other excuse  brought, it must be carried out only after your wishes and tastes. No  one says that parents are not entitled to an opinion, advice is always  welcome, but to say a command, although sounds like and wear the same  words, it’s a big difference. In  reality, you are the ones who should determine or establish, with  firmness and diplomacy, however, limits the involvement of parents in  organizing your wedding. The only opinions that should really keep in mind are those of the partner.

Who’s who in wedding planning? Parents organize our day!
This  is a rarer type of organization of the wedding, at least in urban  environments, often because parents can not support children wedding,  but maybe some of its preparations. But there are such cases, when parents put half of the wedding costs on both sides. In  this case they have made to understand that everything will be  organized only by your taste, choose her wedding dress, wedding flowers, cockades, decor, etc.. Groom’s opinions are also important. What parents should do is to follow you and to pay your choices. There  are some drawbacks to this type of organization of wedding, for certain  aspects they may seem expensive or they have no value and could hardly  understand how much that means to you, those things for them are just  rubble. When is a delicate situation as they pay for what don’t like. It  is better to avoid such situations and tell them right from the start that’s your vision on your wedding and if some inconvenient appear must be clarified  then, because after it would be good for parents to comply exactly with your  wishes. Because they organize the wedding doesn’t give them the right of calling more than half the number of guests for example.

Organize yourself the wedding or with a little help from parents
In  this case you are more free to express your opinions clearly and  resolutely, having first best excuse: “we pay, if you want something else, you pay because we calculated strictly the budget.” You also can come  with replicas more diplomatic if the situation allows. It’s  good to hear advice from others, you don’t know where rises a better  idea, but do not let anyone or anything to induce you to organize your  wedding not as you wish. It is a unique event for any couple and deserve all the attention and all the sacrifices. Perhaps it’s hard with your mother in law before the wedding, but the harder it will be after! Learn to impose opinions.
I wish you a wedding as you dreamed and a healthy and happy marriage!
