It's the beginning of their life with their spouse, it is time for me to let go and let them make the decisions for THEIR life together. It sets the precedence for the relationship. And if I knew having a wedding was really not what they wanted, I wouldn't want one. Truly, the only thing I would want is for my sons to be happy.
If the kids are paying for the wedding, they should be able to do whatever they want. I paid for mine.

Your boys don't have to do anything, weddings are planned by a bride and her mom. Just teach them the magic phrase "yes dear"
