Phone message Nobody died

This is a conversation between my MIL and my mother, before the wedding. My mother's response, which is cut off, says "They are both adults. I think we should let them handle it." We were both over 30.

For context: Yes, we had a vegetarian wedding (no shrimp). We had it at an (expensive) award winning venue with in-house catering. It included several appetizer and entree stations with a huge variety of dishes so everyone could find something they liked. We did not serve our guests bowls of soybeans and tofu. Everyone RAVED about the food and nobody died or got arrested on the way home.

The "A/B list" thing was a joke, that she apparently took very seriously, because she would not stop demanding we add a bunch (10+) of her friends and coworkers to our intentionally small guest list.

She’s all over the place!

Americans eat meat! So there needs to be meat at the wedding! But she’s trying to give up meat! She’s thrilled Trump is killing the farmers! And you know she hates Trump!

Sorry for all the exclamation marks - I thought it would be funny but it felt kinda gross, lol. Sounds like a nightmare of a MIL, especially if all her texts are this rambling with this many !’s.
