Hello Moms!
I'm getting married in April next year, and my Mom just doesn't understand how it can all cost sooo much and she keeps telling me it's only a big party. I know that she's happy for us...she tells us everyday and tells my fiance what a great new son he is! But, I want to try to get her on here and chit-chat with everyone else that is in the same boat as her. Anyone have any suggestions on how to get her on here...?? Or, better, advise I can give her that I can print out for her?She was married to my Father (RIP - 2005) back in 1968... and they had such a small little reception...of all about 35 people. I'm having a bit over 240! BIIG difference! I just want her to relax a bit more and prove that I'm not going over-board. I'm getting FANTASTIC deals on EVERYTHING and doing tons DIY! I just think that she is stressing more then I am about finacnes when she already expressed she was only giving a SET amount. We are fine with that;...but at her age, I don't want her stressing the way she is.
Any help ofr suggestions would be greatly appreciated. THANKS!!

Re: Hello Moms!
If you can get your mom to join LIWeddings so that she can begin chatting with all of us. After speaking with us for just a short time I am sure she will start to see how much times have changed.Good Luck.

Good luck Dani. Tell her that it is so addicting and we all become such good friends that I still come on to the site and my son has been married 11 months now.
