So pissed. My fsil is now inviting 3 of her friends to the wedding, that I don;t even know while I have to keep my list to a minimum.

Granted our parents are footing the bill I just feel that this is not the time or place for her friends, even my 16 year brother is not bringing a friend along, btw she is 26..

I am fine with her BF being invited but 2 of her GF is not acceptable its just that her parents are paying too so I can't give her a complete 'no'.

I personally wouldn't invite someone unless I wanted them there. I will admit that I am inviting my sister's BF....but she has been also become my friend through the years. But I wouldn't invite any old friend of my sister's she can have them at her own damm wedding

Also she asked me if she could bring her dog, to walk down the aisle.

OMG - Is she joking! It's a sticky situation, because her parents are helping to foot the bill. You might be able to talk to her and your future in-laws and tell them that you are having a hard time narrowing down your guest list - you have no problem for 1 friend, but you are being forced to cut out other people that are closer to you (the bride!!!) becasue of the additional invites. You could also mention that the additional friends are more than welcome to attend the ceremony.

Good Luck!

her 2 friends that you don't even know definitely should NOT be invited!!

inviting her bf is negotiable!

Ok, as you can obviously see from my reply above, I haven't quite yet learned how to use the 'quote' feature. Sorry for the entire italicized reply!

I mean her parents are paying too but she is my maid of honor ( who has not planned a bachleorette party for me yet) it makes me pissed. Also she asked me if she could bring her dog, to walk down the aisle. Sure I plan for all these months and put effort into this so you could ruin it?? Just venting..

I hope I'm reading this wrong!!! Her dog??? I think someone (besides yourself) needs to talk to her!

Thats all I can say. I cannot even believe she wants that. I'm sorry but that sounds just a tad selfish and I would have your FH talk to his parents and let him know that that is not right. Now I'll say:
