I will concede that they tried to do "too much," which wouldn't have worked if there had been 50 people or 500 people there. The bride was quite open about the fact that her mother was footing the bill for everything and the budget was unlimited. It just stood out in contrast to the smaller, more intimate weddings I had been to a few months earlier where they really thought about what they were doing and why, instead of just throwing money at an event.

I didn't mean you, love.
Was actually agreeing with you that it depends on the couple's circumstances.
And on the original topic, it never would have occurred to me or my husband that he should talk to my parents beforehand. Just not my thing at all.
