    My mum can be a little like this at times, not in a bad way she just likes to be involved and help with things. Why don't you have a chat with her about the wedding and tell her that someone (choose a friend or relative she doesnt know that well) is trying to do too much and while you appreciate that they're only trying to help you'd rather do it your way, then ask for her advice on how to get them to back off. I've used this technique before and she will usually back off without having to confront or upset her.
