What these two said. I had this same argument over the weekend with finalizing my sister’s weddings guest list where the guy has more guests than he is suppose to and my sister had the same arguments that you are having right now. In the end, you have to realize that a marriage is not just between two people its between two families and you have to live with that family for the rest of your life. You definitely don’t wanna start things on a sour note.
Now what I would suggest to you what I suggested to my sister that you don’t cancel your engagement and try to work with your fiance and tell him that this is the budget that you are working with and this is all you can afford and this is something that you feel is important and you wish to do. You don’t have a solution to the problem right now so why doesn’t he help you come up with a viable solution that works for the both of you. Trust me he will apprieciate you more for being honest with him and making a decision with you instead of you deciding something by yourself. HOpe this helps
