Plan a romantic weekend getaway for you and your finance' - Turn off the cell phones and forget about it all for a couple of days!

towelee_1. All this talk about getting away is not a good idea, as you are going to get a full scenario when you get back and it is going to seem as though you have not been away and bang your back to square one. Both parents seem to be really happy that you are getting married and want the best for you and your new husband. It is possible for you to allow them to continue to organise the wedding with out you being there. When you are ready sit both sets of parents down and explain in a calm caring manner, that you are getting stressed with the constant talk of the wedding and would rather they sort it out between them but let you know once or twice a week on the decisions. The rest of the time you need for yourself and your forth coming husband. Explain that you value their ideas and that you would like some things to be kept as a surprise until the wedding day. That may keep them quiet for a while. Another answer is to put a NO WEDDING TALK on your bedroom door and keep to it. Good luck WB

Get your man to whisk you away for a couple of days to escape from it all. Also you need to think that xmas is coming soon so you need to talk to them and say that you feel there is more to talk about than the wedding. You don;t want this is escalate into a bad situation over xmas.

Just tell them that you need a break from planning for a few days...plan a trip with some girlfriends to a spa and just relax. Tell your girls that you don't want to talk about the wedding and they will understand.

Just talk to them and say that you want to have a week of no wedding talk so that everyone can get back into wedding mode in full force in a couple of days. They will understand, its your wedding and besides..... they are family. They probably like talkinga bout it because they think that is what you like.

just explain that whilst you appreciate the fact that they are excited about your wedding and their involvement, that you would like time to think about something else. Suggest a day when all are free to discuss plans and then after that you need time for yourself

tell them that you are pleased that they approve of your marriage and that you value their support but that you feel that nothing but the actual wedding is open for discussion - and you want a bit of a break from the planning - maybe set aside certain dates to spend time on the planning - good luck xx

Just go away for the weekend, just you and your bf. Make a pact that there is to be no wedding talk.
Enjoy.
