BIL newly engaged and getting married FIRST!

[DarcyJAde]

FI just got back from visiting the family. He said his brother barely mentioned the wedding, probably because he knew his brother was a little ticked stealing his thunder. ( I didn't know FI was upset, he just told me.) Makes me feel a little better knowing that I am not crazy..lol.

 

My FI is the one who has to manage this situation. The kids are teens, so they are excited. They have to come. If FI pays for them, then HE is paying. I refuse.

No, you're not crazy. His brother should have known better then to pull crap like this. It isn't fair to you or your FI, who have spent time planning out this wedding in detail, to go through this. I hate to say it, but I am not sure what type of wedding he plans on having with only having what like 5 months to plan it....with little to no money....since your FI is paying for HIS kids to go to your wedding. I can just see it being one of those that we are talking about in the thread, things you swore you would never let happen at your wedding. Like blue jeans and pigs in a blanket. I am sorry. I am still pissed your FI is still going to pay for his brothers kids to come. Haven't you heard the saying, "what's his is mine, and what's mine is mine!" HaHa. Good Luck!

Wow--is there anyway that you could talk to him about it? would he be open to that?
