[QUOTE="CommonSense1, post: 2628085, member: 300843"] Hand write her a thank you note. Be sincere about how much you appreciate her doing he leg work for your wedding plans and that her input thus far has been wonderful and you appreciate her sharing her resources. Then proceed to tell her that you and (her son's name here) will take it from here and go to the appointments yourselves. Then, thank her again for her research which will make you and her son narrow down your selections for your wedding plans. Remember, do not use "us" and "we" as she will think she is included. Always say yourself and her son so it is clear that the two of you are a unit and will be making the appointments, choices and final decisions yourselves. By writing a note, you will be perceived as being thankful, which you are, of course. But, it is much more personal than an e-mail or a text. Besides, by thanking her for a job well done, you are, essentially letting her go and off the hook for any further involvement. Well, at least, let's hope she has social grace and has taken the hint that her services are no longer needed. [/QUOTE]
