Civil wedding

Spb, on May 27, 2019 at 11:53 PM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 0 8
Hi everyone 🙂...
I'm getting married in August 🤞.. I only want something simple... go to courthouse get married and dinner afterwards nothing else... but im feeling kind of embarrassed... we come from previous relationships and altogether have 4 kids ... us together have a 4 month baby 😍... but ever since we moved in together his mom made it very clear to me that she didn't want us to get married or have kids ... at times I dont care but then again its overwhelming remembering her words and i cant imagine what she is going to say when we tell her... he has done the marriage "thing" i haven't.. so i guess thats why his mom thoughts... I have always wanted to get married and after 3 years he finally said yes to get married (lol yes i know, HE said YES) idk i guess im just expressing here how i feel since i cant share it with anyone.
TIA for reading me..🙂

    Yikes! I’m sorry to hear that. What’s done is done. That says more about her character than yours. I plan on having a courthouse wedding as well. My future MIL has never said anything that bold, but she has insulted me before. My future husband’s brother does not take care of his 2 year old daughter. He does not feed her nor bathe her. My future MIL does all of the child rearing of her granddaughter. I once asked her why, and instead of her politely saying “it’s none of your business,” she responds as “perhaps if you were more mature, you could see that my son cannot do this.”
    Ummm her son is a grown a** man and is not physically nor mentally handicapped. If he can wipe his own bum and put food in his mouth then he can do it to his child.
    She pretended to be happy for 5 mins that he proposed to me. She has shown zero interest in our wedding plans and has not once asked. It is what it is. It used to bother me, but how I think it’s her loss. I am the only woman that one of her three boys have brought home who is financially, emotionally and physically independent. Who had never asked her for money and who genuinely wants to have a good in law relationship with her.

    Hi there!

    I’m sorry your FS mom has not been supportive of you both getting married in the past. I can completely see why you’re nervous to tell her.

    As the previous poster mentioned, you and your FS have to do what is right for the both of you. If you wish to marry, you don’t have to justify this. It would be nice to have his mom’s support, however, you are both consenting adults.

    Hopefully with time she may come around Smiley smile And if not, that’s ok too! We support you and want to congratulate you on your engagement!
