Hi everyone, I’m hoping to get some help on how to deal with this situation.
My FSIL and her husband just had their first baby, and she will be about 7 months old on our wedding day. Since FSIL is a bridesmaid and her husband is a groomsman, I thought having their baby girl as an honorary flower girl, and also help me bond with my FH’s sister. I was thinking FSIL AND FBIL could walk down holding her or something really cute since she won’t actually be able to walk. I was just thinking this would be a great way to include my niece.
My mother thinks since I’m including her that I need to also include my two baby cousins as well. They are twins(boy and girl) and will be about 14 months on our wedding. I was really just including my niece because of her parents being in the wedding party, so now I’m not real sure what to do. I don’t feel the need to include my cousins because I’ve actually never met them, and am much closer with my niece because of that. Am I being rude by not asking my cousins?
I just honestly don’t want to have 3 babies in the wedding party. My mother thinks I’m being extremely rude and that it would hurt their feelings, but she also tends to be dramatic so I’m not really sure. I don’t see this as something my aunt and uncle would be upset about, as they are pretty laid back people. What do you all think? I just don’t want to come across as being rude!
Any advice is appreciated, thank you!
