We are going to make thier wedding look like a childrens party!! I know this is wrong ... but why must they ride our coat tails??!!

We will be bigger and best ... nobody will even remember whats his name;s wedding!!!

You show them!!! Make them bleed for it!!!

Dont forget though, I said this once and I will say it again... ALL of your family that was at you wedding that will be at their's, will be asking YOU how you are doing, how your honeymoon was, how married life is...Your family will be more interested in your wedding that just passed than about the wedding they are attending!

that is true. people aren't goin to be interested in you FBIL's wedding.

is it possible that they might postpone their wedding if they don't have the money to do it? maybe they think they have the $, but what about when they start to meet with vendors?

ya know whats odd to me is WHY they would want the wedding SO CLOSE to yours and its AFTER.
for me i would be happy that mine is first. if i was planning one close to a family memeber i would do it months after because i woudlnt still want the focus on the previous wedding...by far you are in the better position here so dont stress it.
just keep all your plans on the hush and dont give them any ideas

i might be the odd one out, but couldn't you just be happy for them? i understand you are getting married in close range but your wedding is first anyway.

just my opinion. don't crucify me!

ITA...I understand that you are fustrated but I think by having this 'war' of the better wedding is childish. Be happy in the end people are going to think about you on your day and your FSIL on the other day...I wouldnt let this stress you out! If you want to make lemons into lemonade...take her to the vendors you are booking and try to get deals like that!

I wont .... when we started this process fh's brother looked at his FH(now) and said 'don't get any idea's) .... fast forward ... they see all the attention and have a fight with my FH and decide to do this ,,.,, NOW I HAVE TO SHARE na e-party? they are both 21 .... very young .... I will not be 'sharing' venders ...in fact already called the photog and asked him not to take them ... he agreed ...

Maybe I am not a good person because I am pi$$ed ... thats ok with me ... FH and I will probably not be going to thier wedding either ... and he is taking his brother out of the wedding party ... this is not happening to you ... and this is spitful, and hurtful ... so let it begin! I am older and have a lot more experience being nasty and bit chy!!

I am the wrong person to pi$$ off ..

I am DONE CRYING! and will need you ladies to be there for me!!! I just increaded our budget by 10,000!!! let the spending begin!

I agree my brother and I got married within 4 months of eachother and it was such a great time for my SIL and I to bond. We helped eachother and BOTH had beautiful weddings.

I can understand you are upset but dont ruin your special time by focusing on this...make the best of it, maybe use it as a time to bond with your FSIL. Weddings are full of so much happiness in my experience having my brother and I get married at the same time doubled the happiness
