My FMIL called yesterday to say she ran into one of my FH's distant cousins who we invited and I have met once. The last FH saw him, FH was 8 (he's 32 now). She asked if he was going to the wedding and he said yes! I'm bringing my girlfriend. But I would REALLY LOVE to bring my daughter as well. And of course she would need to bring a friend too. And then he just waited for a response.
We gave him 2 seats and he totally could have brought his daughter instead of his girlfriend. We've never met the daughter or the girlfriend he just started dating and even if we had invited the daughter, no way does this 17 year old need a plus one to our wedding.
Thankfully FMIL for the win! She apparently told him, oh yes, unfortunately all seating and guest count arrangements have been finalized. Thank Heavens!!
Who does this???
