Eparty VENT

So the eparty is just our immediate families (who have not met yet BTW) and our wedding party. We extended the invite to my stepfathers cousin becuase they have always been close like brothers. Well the cousin's wife opened her mouth to her sister in law who did not get an invite because she is not immediate family nor is she close to my stepfather the way her brother is.

So the cousin's wife calls my mother and says that she accidently slipped and opened her mouth yadda yadda so my mom says that the party is for immed family only and that is why her SIL wasnt invited.

Two weeks go by and now my stepfather gets a call at work yesterday from his cousin saying that he doesnt know what to do cause he is in the middle of this whole thing since his sister wasnt invited. My stepfathers says the same thing that this is who I chose to invite and why.

So now I am furious and text the cousins wife saying that this party is being thrown by my fiance and I so please adress me in the future, not my parents. I explain the whole thing AGAIN about how its for immediate family and that they were invited bc they have been in our lives being close to my stepdad.

Well I get an email at 1130 last night from my stepdads cousin telling me that he respects my decision and knows it is hard to plan and make decisions for parties and he hopes that I respect his decision to no longer attend the party. He says that he struggles with the situation and hopes that at my wedding his whol family can be together to help me celebrate and dance. Then goes on to say that he didnt know that I planned the party and had he known he wouldnt have gone to my parents but he does not appreciate being reprimanded and requests that I never speak to him or his wife like that again in that manner.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?!?! Who are you to second guess or question my guestlist for anything. Now his poor sister probably thinks that I didnt intend to invite her to my wedding which I DO but not the intimate engagement party. I went out of my way to make him and his wife feel like our immediate family and this is what I get?

I am glad they arent coming and if I had it my way I wouldnt even invite them to the wedding anymore but I know my parents wont like that.

Am I crazy here or is this rediculious?? I feel like I am in High School...this is so stupid.

omg ugh they allllllllll come out of the woodwork when the wedding comes around..people show their true colors!!!

I'm sorry you have to deal with this, I know how you feel, we dealt with similar stuff for our e-party it makes me cringe when I think about if people are gonna do this when the wedding rolls around.

Take it with a grain of salt, stick to your guns and let it roll off your shoulders! Don't let anyone's elses BS mess with your wedding and planning process!

Re: Eparty VENT

thanks ladies.....i mean this lady has been a problem my whole life and to be honest I really dont like her at all. I tolerate her because she is married to someone who my stepfather loves and is family with...and my stepfather means the world to me.

When I was younger in another relationship she took it upon herself to give a doctor my phone number and said that I would love to hear from him and he should ask me out on a date....I WAS IN A 3 YEAR RELATIONSHIP at the time....Who do you think you are? I mean really lololol

Im so over her.

Sorry you are going through that. Men can get so overprotective of their women, but I bet you she put him up to say that.

she totally put him up to it....he has no manhood of his own if you know what I mean lolol he is such a panzy when it comes to power in the relationship.....

the fact that you they dont see how they were included in something meant to be intimate to celebrate and for our families to get to know eachother is beyond me. Instead they turn it into a 'how dare you not invite this and that person' Im still in shock over the childish behaviors.

ITA!!!

Its like a crazy switch gets turned on when they hear 'wedding' and magically these ppl who have never been very close think they should be your top priority.

don't let them stress you out!

the funny thing is that there is no drama from his sister. Not once has she contacted anyone or said anything that would lead us to believe that this is coming directly from her. Its all my stepdads cousin and his wife who are troublemakers.

So I wrote her a letter and letting her know the situation because I have a feeling that she doesnt even know how childish her SIL and brother are being.

Go out of your way to make someone feel special and they turn around and slap you in the face. I would just totally cut him and her off. If you have to invite them to the wedding let them get the invite in the mail and they can RSVP just like every other guest. They seem like they are not worth the trouble.
