Is this odd?

Is this odd?

I finally ordered STDs. Before ordering, I spoke to my mom about how many she thought she needed for family, I estimated how many I needed for FH and my friends. I sent FMIL an email asking her how many she needed and could she send me the addresses. I mentioned that I already had addresses for family so I needed addresses for everyone else she felt needed a STD.

I get the following response:

No need for any save the dates......family doesn't need save the dates as they already have it marked on their calendar!!!!!!

Does she not plan on inviting anyone other than her small (15 people) family??? I know they have family in Italy, I doubt they will come, but thought she would want to send one to them. And FH is always telling me how many friends they have and how social they are.

I feel so bad for FH that she has taken absolutely no interest in this wedding.

Also....advice needed......do I still send his family that I do have addresses for a STD magnet? Would that be an insult even though she told me no need to send one to them?

Rant over.

I would send it to family you do have the address for..if FMIL says anything just say 'Oh I thought you meant I didn't need to send it to the people I don't have the address for.'

As for only having family...everyone I know has only had their friends and family

We are not inviting any friends of parents..but that is just us we only want our friends there (everyone we know)

Unless I was close to one of my mom's friends I have no intention of inviting them

I agree... if you have addresses there's no harm in doing that.
