Definitely stand your ground. We had so many issues with DH's family it just seemed easier to elope.
In the end we agreed that everything was going to be a "surprise" and managed to keep them out of most of it so that we could plan in peace.
Planning a wedding isn't all rainbows and colour swatches like they show in the movies BUT it should still be a special time for you and your FH and there is no point in planning a beautiful wedding if you just want to rip each other apart before you get to the altar over a couple of stickybeak in-laws/family members. (Been there, done that! And the surprise idea saved us)
Good luck!
