Well no sense in fussing over it now. You still have lots more time before the wedding. Besides, people make stupid comments like that and then the more they think about it they change their minds. And if you really feel like it needs to be addressed, then your FI needs to talk to him not you.
@SoontobeMsL: I would have your FI tell him that he needs to be there for photos. That if his wife really needs help checking into the hotel, she needs to find someone else to help her.
When In-laws try to be a pain, I let FI handle it since they are his family. His family have actually been great so far but his cousin tried to be a nightmare. we wanted her daughter to be our FG and she started complaining excessively about the cost of the dress which is $39.00 and $10 sash., She then sent me a lengthy snarky email saying we were rude for not callin her hubby directly to ask his permission to use his daughter... blab bla bla i read the email a couple of times and then told FI to handle it.

Sounds like his brother's wife is a pain in the behind..and his brother must be totally wipped.. for him to think that skipping out on these pictures could possibly be less important that dropping his wife off is insane! Tell your FI to talk to him, and make sure he's in those pictures!!
I'm going to have my FI deal with it. Its just mind-boggling to hear that come out of his brother's mouth.
FWIW, I can understand why, with an infant and a two year old, she might need some help getting things settled at the motel.
Worst case scenario? Just do the photos with him first and then let him go, or arrange for someone else from the family to go with her to be sure things are taken care of.
@teaadntoast: Well the 2 year old is in the wedding so he'll be with us. His wife will only have the infant and I told him that the hotel has valet and bellhops to help.
There are plenty of people that will be able to help them. They just have to ask.

What is your advice on dealing with In-laws that are trying to make the day of your wedding difficult?
My FI’s brother is married, with a 2 year old and a baby on the way. He is part of the wedding party. He told us yesterday that he may not be able to take pictures with the bridal party after the church ceremony because he has to drive his wife to the hotel and help her check in. (Because for some weird reason, she can’t do it alone) The hotel/reception is a 10 minute drive from the church
How would you react to something like that?
