My FSIL and I do not get along...she has only been on the scene for about 3 years and FH and I have been together almost 6...she and I just don't get along...I try to be civil and I have tried to include her, but she just doesn't reciprocate. (She recently had a baby and I was not invited to the shower. She was invited to my bridal shower and did not attend.)
So....FH's parents included FSIL's parents on our guest list. We had to make cuts and we cut FSIL's parents. I have only met FSIL's parents 3 times and they live in another state so we do not see them at family functions.
FSIL is having a FIT because her parents are not invited....I am standing my ground....this girl does nothing for me, has no interest in my life, and has rejected all my attempts to be friends with her...
Am I wrong here? We had to cut extended family of mine so we could have enough people there....I don't even know her parents!!!! HELP!!!

I'm not inviting my BIL's parents, and I like him and them.
they live in San Diego and I've only met them once, at my sister's wedding. nice people, but I can't invite everyone I ever met to my wedding.
you have to draw the line somewhere.

I agree. If you werent even important enough to invite to her baby shower her parents sure as heck are not important enough to attend your wedding.

Re: I hate the drama!
ummm it's a tough call.
Do you think they would come to the wedding if they were invited? chances are they might not even come.
I would talk to FIL's about what they think? I could care less about FSIL. Obviosuly she is a brat and selfish. You have over extended yourself enough, so don't worry about hurting her feelings.
But see what FIL's say you should do. If they really want them invited, then maybe do it for them, to make them happy. If they can care less, then you do the same.
Only an opinion!!!!!!

Re: I hate the drama!
there is NO reason why you should have to invite your FSIL's parents. They are not the part of family that you are marrying into so they are not of utmost importance to have there

Tell her you will send them an invitation when you get one to her baby shower. See what she says then.

Re: I hate the drama!
I am inviting my Brother in law's parents, and that is only because I see them a few times a year and they are truly wonderful people who I want at my wedding. If you don't know these people they do not need to be invited especially if your sil is such a *****. Stand your ground.

Re: I hate the drama!
Why is she expecting her parents to be invited to YOUR wedding?
I'm surprised your FMIL did not question why you were not invited to her baby shower. I say stand firm - I can't see any reason why you would invite them. Of course, it would be different if you saw them regularly and enjoyed their company. This is your wedding - not FSIL's

I second both statements. Stand your ground. Let her have her fit....she will get over it....and if she doesn't ......oh well!!!
