fh step sibling.

I don't think its horrible at all not to ask the other sibling. If they arent currently in either of your lives and you arent close then there is really no need to ask them

Just be prepared for him/her to feel some kind of way about being excluded. IMPO, if you ask one, you should ask them all.

It is up to you. If they are not close I am sure they will understand. If they seem like they want to do something maybe a reading or s blessing if it is a religious event.

Any other time I would say that you shouldn't feel obligated to include someone in your bridal party, but asking all of his other simblings only to exclude one seems pretty rude to me. I would be hurt if I was the sibling who was left out. Could you ask them to do a reading or participate in some other way?

Nope. If you & your fh don’t have the kind of relationship with his step sibling, then you two just don’t have that kind of relationship with them. As for feelings getting hurt, if the step sibling also feels that the relationship isn’t there, I don’t see how they would feel hurt. But if you’re still worried about it, you could always give the step sibling some other job to make them feel important too

I don’t think you should feel obligated to add someone that you aren’t close with to your wedding party. My sister is my MOH and my step brother is walking me down the isle. My FH has a step brother too that we like, but don’t have the same close relationship with. He is invited along with his wife and kids, but not part of the wedding party. If you are worried about hurt feelings, asking them to do a reading or participate in some other way is a nice gesture.

It’s completely up to you but be prepared for them to possibly be offended.

I think it really depends on facts. The finance may have never lived with his stepsiblings, age and living together do matter.

I don't think it's horrible since you aren't close. It would be sad if the step sibling made a huge effort to be super involved in both your lives and you didn't ask. But if you aren't close, it's totally fine.

Honestly, if you aren't close, why fake it? I'm having my brothers and sister in our bridal party because they genuinely care for not just me but also my future-husband. However, we're not including his sister; we are just not close and someday if we do become close well then that's great, but I'm not going to worry about someone's feelings if the intentions aren't mutual.

I hope I don't sound too mean lol! I just believe in being honest.
