A bride-to-be has aired her frustrations after her mum tried to invite several of her own friends to her wedding because she was ‘helping to pay for it’.
The woman said her mum accused her of being ‘ungrateful’, when she tried to explain that she and her fiance wanted a ‘small and intimate’ wedding. Explaining the situation and asking for advice on Mumsnet’s ‘Am I Being Unreasonable’ forum, the woman said her mum reminded her who was ‘helping to pay’ for the big day, when she’d tried to broach the subject.
The woman wrote: “My fiancé and I are planning on getting married in a small venue with 50 guests at an absolute maximum. With our immediate families and then grandparents, aunts and uncles, as well as my fiancé’s best man, and two bridesmaids for me, this comes to 47 which we were happy with.
