Need to vent..

My FI parents are divorced, they don't speak to one another which is one story that i can't even go into right now cause it just gets me so upset that they just can't act like adults for a few days when they are together.

They both have so much to say about everything w/ the wedding but haven't asked if we even need help w/ anything! Our Eparty is in a few weeks my parents are going all out with having a tent and getting it catered and they haven't even asked if we needed anything or if they could do something to help! My FI gets so mad at them and tells them and they still dont say anything.
I don't expect money from them but my future Father in Law keeps adding all these people to his list that my FI doesn't even know! My FI keeps telling him 'We can't have all of your friends at the wedding because we are inviting alot of ours and it's too many people' but he's not getting it. What should we do?

Sorry to go on and on

I swear some people have no clue about weddings.
I am so sorry that you are going through this what I woudl do is take the list and invite who you think you should invite out of your FIL friends. As Far as your parents go I wish I knew something to say but I don't My FIL are divorced and the only thing that I have problems with is that FMIL and Fh Step mom try to out do each other and that can get a little annoying at times but nothing to do withthe wedding.

So sorry to hear that!! I totally wouldn't take that from them, esp if your FH has told them and they won't listen. I would completely ignore their requests of who they 'have' to invite!! You're the ones who sends the invitations out, go by the list as far as you can and then leave off anyone that you feel is unneccessary. It's your day, there's no reason to have people there that neither of you have ever met!!
