Towels marriage? For my wedding I want to throw napkins (because of our style) and my fiance's mother told me 6 times (phone and email) to not buy linen napkins ... has purchased and may not return and now my fiance and I discuss above .... Do I Stand My Ground and tell him for I want to EXCLUDE, or I just say "oh well they are napkins" part of me .. feels like this is my wedding and I what I want ... .. I do not want her to think im a snob and put on 100, but was told too often do not buy
Let me most definatley Stand My Ground, it's your wedding, and feelings can be hurt, but she has been informed that you do not like, she can always sell them on ebay and get something for their money. Good Luck
I would use them only because it has already bought them and you save money. but tell him to stop going against your will in the future, it is your wedding *!
Tell him to use with the understanding that it will be to clean up afterwards. She probably thought that u change your mind and not have them and she went ahead and bought them, so use it, but tell her u need to clean up after the wedding ...
She will have bought towels Nice and paid for them. paper towels are sticky in nature. Be thankful and move forward.
Frankly, I stood my ground. If you give in, it will create a precedent for your relationship. She'll think she can walk all over and you'll put up with it. "I know, it's a position of shit, but you told him not. I refund a portion (or all if you can) buy it. Let her know that when you say something, you hear it.
Oh dear - do not sweat the small stuff. Be happy, she wants to participate at all. Leave your boyfriend put his hand on the reins with his mom. Then give him the things she can do.
use, but it is clear that you will not be a refund for them because you made it clear that you wanted to throw napkins. Tell her if she needs to make money, she can sell them after marriage. She is also responsible for washing.
Hold tight and do not pay or pay what you would pay for the delivery aways, if you feel bad it is out of money.
Honestly though, there is no good reason not to use perfectly good towels that have already been paid, unless you just want to spend more money and shit. They are only towels .... why not just be a big girl and let her win this one. There is life after marriage and you need to learn to choose your battles. Towels are not one of them.
So just do not use them, go with what you expected. Maybe she can sew together to make a sheet or duvet cover ....
