Why is everyone trying to be indie?

Can someone explain to me why my mother is trying to get everyone on the same page for my sisters wedding?

  • So my mother, she has been obsessing over my sisters wedding coming up since it was planned. She has been telling people that they should get ready to dance, and look great for my sisters wedding. She tells everyone that they should star working out to look their best. Its getting really annoying. We don't dance, we dont work out, and its like she is trying to brainwash us leading up to the wedding. She's just trying way too hard to make everything the way she wants it. All she talks about is the wedding. When she is on the computer she watches wedding videos of other peoples wedding. The band that she hired for my sisters wedding, well they are very busy. She wrote them a nasty email saying how she should be the most imporant priority on their list. This is a band that plays over 200 shows a year. Why is my mother obsessing so much over this? She's just gonna let herself down when its all over.

  • Answer:

    Yes, she probably will be let down when it's over. She's love the wedding planning and wants to control the details. Stop worrying about her and say "Yes, Mom" when she starts up again. Repeat as needed, then go on with your life.

Sorry dear....no MOB tells the guests they HAVE TO work out so they look good on the dance floor, nor do they insist that everybody dance...unless your mother is mentally unhinged...or this is a made up story and you are trolling...... Wrote a nasty e-mail to a band that is too booked up to perform at the wedding?....try a better story.

She's probably just really excited and wants everything to be perfect. She wants her family to look good because it just goes without saying if it's a big wedding everyone she knows will be there and she wants to impress them.

Sometimes MOB's just get crazy, some kind of wedding fever, but she has gone too far, ya or sis gotta have the talk, in private. If she ignores, your sis should go her own way and do what she wants, people will understand that your Mother, maybe unknowingly, is being very rude. Perhaps she is wanting the wedding she never had, but however sis has to step up to the plate. As a future MOB, it is hard to let go and let the little girl you raised and went thru cheer leading, dance and skinned knees, etc. do the planning. It's kinda like losing a part of yourself, I am happy/sad and it is hard not to put my two cents worth in unless asked. But your Mother is way out of line, if I was asked to do this, I would either laugh or not attend at all depending on my relationship to your sister.
