BP/FBIL Vent- sorry long

Does anyone else find this rude???
Background:
FH and I have way too many little cousins and nieces and nephews, so we decide no kids in the wedding party. We do have two 13 year olds in the wedding party but they really aren't kids. We also did this because I am an only child and I wouldn't have any one from my family in the BP. The immediate lil' kiddies will be invited as guests to the wedding.


Yesterday my FH gets a call from his brother. Now if you know his family, you know that no one bothers with you unless they are getting something from it. Well, his brother wants to know when we are going to order his daughters special dress for the wedding and how much it is? My FH is like what dress? His brother goes on to explain that his daughter will be throwing flowers at our wedding. My FH handled it and told him we are only having adults in the wedding party (a bit of a lie!).

I am sorry I just had to vent!! I am so fed up with his family pushing me around!!

I think it was pretty presumptuous to assume you would have his daughter as your flower girl. It sounds like your FH handled it well. I know it can be annoying, but don't let it get to you.

Stand your ground and don't let anyone bully you. You handled the situation very well but realize that you may have to face more situations like this. It's great that you and your FH are on the same page. He sounds like a great guy.
