I’m coordinating a wedding for my younger sister who is marrying a less then dapper dude that she dated when she was 16 and recently reunited with. Rough around the edges, history of addictions, no manners etc..he has the family to match natrually. My mother has foot the bill for the entire thing and i coordinated everything. We began having problems with his family in the beginning when i got into a HUGE fight with the grroms AUNT after she reams my sister for being sooo rude for not inviting his entire family. (We aggreed on 50 guests she came to the engament BBQ with a list of 50 ppl they forgot to invite and made a scene.) they didnt offer a way to pay for these ppl just the idea of having a POT LUCK BACK YARD WEDDING. sure backyard weddings are great but it wasnt what they had in mind and my sister surely didnt want the guests to feed themselves. So that started it all…Fights back and forth. Facebook of course. I blocked them all to avoid any further drama but they keep finding a way back into my life.. jens wedding is 10 days away and i put my heart and soul into her wedding…nevermind every dime i have and im soo nervous that they are going to start shit at the wedding..what do i do..i mean these ppl are capable of starting a fist fight or insiteing a riot! i cant even take it..i just want her to have her day. what would you do?

I’d have the wedding, of course, and I would then have the potluck thing after the fact. Would that appease everyone?

AS far as security, etc…I suppose you could do that if you really feel threatened!

Really? It’s not worth it. I’m having huge issues with some of FH’s family because they can’t/don’t want to understand what FH and I want for our wedding. If they try to crash then it just proves what a selfish person they are because they can’t respect what your sister and her FH have chosen as a way to celebrate their union. And they aren’t worth your time. Keep them blocked on Facebook and just be civil to them. If they make a fool of themselves then so be it.

I would say this is your sister’s FH’s problem that he needs to take charge of. It’s his family and even though he doesn’t sound like the greatest guy, he is going to be your sister’s husband and they should be able to communicate about this. Good luck!
