I am the grooms mom and I need advice. I am not a pushy mom that needs to stick my nose into the wedding planning. My son and his fiance are planning a small wedding of 80 guests. He shared the guest list with me and I was disappointed he didn't include his cousins. It is only 5-10 people and he said no because the package cost more once they hit 85, they get charged for 100 guests. I said ok what if I paid the extra for that to happen and he said no. I said please at least invite the 4 cousins from out of town that will come with my brother and sil and he was not having it. I told him I felt very bad to let my brother know he could come but not his family. A little later he came to me and said he made some changes and they can come now, he just won't invite some of his friends. I feel horrible, it is his day so he should have whomever he and his fiance want to be there. Should I tell him to forget it and just talk with my brother about the size of the wedding ect? The wedding is in 2022 so there is time. I just feel bad for my son. What should I do?
