so here's a question, how many of you are finding it difficult to please various family members with the decisions concerning your wedding. My fiance and I have been having some difficulty particularly with his side of the family (I hate to say it), concerning the issue of inviting children to the wedding. We were planning to set an age limit, but apparently one of his aunts would be mortally offended if we didn't invite her children (ranging in ages from 5-10 ish). My fiance's mother has been particularly vocal over this concern, feeling like we should be doing our best to please the family. We've also had some problem with family members expecting that they're going to be able to share stories/poke fun at us/my fiance during the reception, which we weren't really planning on doing a whole lot of. My thinking is that this is our wedding, we should be able to make our own decisions. But at the same time this is family and we don't want to offend anyone. Where do we draw the line at pleasing people, and have any of you had this problem?
