Maybe at another point things can be done to make things work better, but holy hell, now is not that time. <br /><br />Tell your future husband it's not your decision for your in-laws to be there, it's theirs. They have the invite: they can come if they want, they can reject if they want. Your job is over, so is your man's. You've invited them, you want them there (for the most part). Ball is in their court. And if anyone else complains to you about this say you did all you could because you did. Ultimately they will look/feel bad in the end if they don't show up b/c you invited them. Stop worrying.<br /><br />Your guy sounds so much like my boyfriend/me, it's amazing. Coming from a family with strong cultural ties, I understand his position, I've been in it myself and it's never fun. You're always wanting to do the right thing, I know where he's coming from. He's not trying to not stand up for you, he is, but in a different way by standing down. By him asking you what you want to do in this situation is him trying to make you happy. I see it differently. Or I'm just crazy. Either way :|||Ms Dictatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14659306448615236798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6468279200135971946.post-42552197863965407482011-10-03T08:01:35.009-07:002011-10-03T08:01:35.009-07:00I have to agree with 17 beats here.

If he can't, that may be a major issue in other ways too. <br /><br />And I'd be pissed if I knew my FH's mom didn't like me and she wore black to our non-black tie wedding.

If they've promised to make your day...Aw, jeez. If they've promised to make your day miserable - your wedding day! - they shouldn't come. <b>Your fiance</b> should be the one to tell them that, but if he can't, then write them a short note saying that you're making your wedding a positive event attended by people who love you both and support the union, and that if they are incapable of feeling love and support for <i>the two of you together</i>, then they should not be in attendance. If they do support the marriage, despite past problems or current personality clashes, then they are more than welcome to come and be a part of your new life with their son. If she decides to wear black, tell yourself it's because she needs it to look slim, be gracious, thank them, and assign someone to spot them during speeches and once the bar opens. <br /><br />And then tell your fiance that <b>he is charge of rectifying this situation</b>.Kaitlyn Kochanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04786479100009809264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6468279200135971946.post-73504270982515736912011-10-02T11:10:00.129-07:002011-10-02T11:10:00.129-07:00Not a dummy, just blind.Not a dummy, just blind.Taralynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08290307461821002160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6468279200135971946.post-79112488931747796552011-10-02T08:56:12.010-07:002011-10-02T08:56:12.010-07:00Be the bigger person.

THAT IS WHY HE IS MY HUSBAND. if your fiance is not willing to do this, there are some important conversations that you two need to have NOW, else things will never get easier.17 beats.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13010462456433196213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6468279200135971946.post-50046946750933562262011-10-01T08:02:41.186-07:002011-10-01T08:02:41.186-07:00I got married last weekend.
