Update: My(24F) parents(late 60s f+m) reacted extremely unhappy when I told them I was getting married. I can't get over how hurt I feel.

Well, my parents got over how unhappy they were. My dad has since shut his mouth when it comes to the wedding. Now my mom is trying to 100% control everything.
She wants to invite 100+ people and have it at her venue. My Fiance and I found a lovely venue that can seat up to 100 people but we want at most 70 which we tried compromising on as well as the venue had a minimum so we were willing to go higher to meet it for this venue.
She completely lost her mind at this. She wants it at the country club of which my grandfather was a member of my Uncles are members and my cousins are members. She refuses to hear otherwise. HEr definition of compromise is that we are wanting to have it on a Monday because it falls on a certain date aka my Fiances grandparents and parents were members, a small way to honour his late mother who he was extremely close to.
So that is what she believed SHE compromised on. So she literally wants to set up EVERYTHING else.
I'm done. And I told her so. I was so upset that she couldn't even try to not make it about herself I went No Contact with her. I told her we will pay her back for the dress. It's beautiful btw.
Jokes on her though, We will have a wonderful ceremony with my fiances entire family and she will not be there. She will have nothing to do with my wedding and it will be wonderful. My brother is extremely angry with me as he is her GoldenChild and now is basically her flying monkey as well. My dad hasn't said a word to me but he never really talks to me anyway.
TLDR: Mom got over her anger and tried to control absolutely everything about the wedding. Got angry went No contact with her and she is no longer invited. Will have my wedding with just my fiances family and be very happy. They are lovely people.
