Wow. Well I'm glad everything else was great for the couple!
Did you say pie bar? Mmm
Why would they just assume that the step kids are invited, shoot, I am not inviting my steps. I have only met them maybe two or three times so I am not going to waste space on people I hardly know.
Omg that's horrible. I think your FSMIL and my SMIL would get along like gang busters though, they sound like they each have the same amount of good manners and tact ;)
On the plus side, sounds like you went to an awesome wedding! So much fun! Don't let the party poopers get you down sunshine!
11 Names!!!! How rude and tacky! We had some add 4 names to the RSVP. I thought I had seen it all then but 11 names is a bit much.
Yeah! It's completely absurd! If they do it at our wedding, I'm going to go psycho bride on them!
Pie Bar? I want! But we are eloping, so I'd have to eat it all myself. Which I'd totally do. But it wouldn't make wedding day very exciting for FI.
That is crazy, adding 9 to the RSVP! Sorry they were not to friendly with you, but hey, at least it sounds like it's clear in their minds that they will not be a party of 11 at your wedding!

So we were at a wedding last night for FI's cousin. (We were going to have the EXACT same name after I get married in July, but not anymore! *tears* ) She had the most beautiful, fun and rustic wedding. Everything was perfect!
Pie Bar, Delicious Dinner, Tear-jerking ceremony. Absolutely wonderful!
Except for the same old from FFIL and FSMIL. Mr. J and I had been wondering for a couple weeks if his step-siblings had been invited and we could see them not being invited, since they're not that close with his cousin, etc. And to invite them means another 9 people on the guestlist! (+9 for open bar +9 for food +1 table, the room was already at capacity!)
When we got to the ceremony, they hardly acknowledged our presence. Like, COME ON. It's your SON and his fiance. How do you NOT talk to them? Or even say HI? (they didn't say ONE word to me!)
Mr. J asked FFIL when we got there if they were coming (not if they were invited. Tried to be somewhat polite) and FFIL said no. Then FSMIL leaned over and said "they weren't INVITED"
So wow. Ok, she's a little bitter. (It's her kids! I would semi-understand.)
We got to the reception (and WOW it was gorgeous!) and about 10 minutes in, I couldn't spot FFIL and FSMIL (after they sat at a different table and then moved to another one). We assumed they went out for a smoke, but 30 min later when everyone was eating, they were still gone. Yep. They LEFT. They didn't talk to ANYONE and sat there with a frown/mean face all evening. I seriously can't believe it. But if you knew FSMIL, you would totally understand.
So when Unc. C came by (FOB) to say hi, he mentioned how they were SUPER happy Mr. J and I could make it and how they were happy we didn't get involved with the whole invite confusion (with FFIL and FSMIL). Apparently, they invited FFIL and FSMIL, but not her kids. Due to the space capacity of the room (it was pretty crowded with the # that was there!) and they picked the people who meant the most to them to be there. TOTALLY understandable!
He went on to say that when FSMIL sent the RSVP back, she put ELEVEN (11) names on it! OMGHHKP!
How rude.
Rant over!
