I cannot believe that here I am again posting for third party advice on another issue brought up by my FH’s family… I have already cried and I’m just not even feeling excited about my own wedding anymore. His sister broke up with her live in boyfriend of barely a year about a month ago. Right about the time that we found out they might be breaking up is when I was having the invitations made. I asked my FH to confirm with his family and I even confirmed with them about wether to put her soon to be ex’s name on the invitation. The answer was to no and to make sure it was sent to his parents house and not their apartment together. Okay so done deal. She breaks up with him and there was a lot of drama, moved out of their apartment and everything. Fast forward ONE month later my FH finds out from their dad that my FSIL and her ex are back together. Mind you my FH cannot stand her boyfriend and his parents don’t like him either after he showed his true colors during their breakup. Now within this same conversation with his dad about finding out their back together he gets asked if her ex can still go to the wedding and that his parents will pay for him. We are ONE MONTH out from our wedding btw. We simply say no. There’s too many details that have already been finalized as well as both of us just not even wanting him there. We think it’s ridiculous to expect us to just accommodate the change so quickly after all of the drama that took place during the breakup. His parents admitted that they do not like him and are only pushing it on us because that’s what his sister wants. I cannot believe this has become my reality…

    I think at this late date I'd be afraid of saying Sure, He Can Come, and then 2 weeks out have FSIL break up with him again and want you to take the heat and uninvite him. These people don't sound like ones who are willing to accept the consequences of their actions. So sorry you're having to deal with all this drama.

    An update to everyone now that my wedding is only a few days away! The sister and boyfriend broke up yet again and are now officially done. My FH did receive an apology from his mom, sister and dad for how they all reacted and insisted on the bf going to the wedding. Their actions were in no way appropriate nor respectful. I’ll be fine on my wedding day when I have to interact and full of happiness, but I haven’t spoke to them since all of this drama they caused.

    It's unfortunate that you still aren't speaking to your future in law over this just days before your wedding. I can't see that leaving him out was worth all this. Both sides overreacted, IMO. I hope you can resolve things.

    Oh gosh sorry there's been so much drama around this. Hopefully now that your in-laws have apologized you can all move on and enjoy your beautiful day. Wishing you all the best on your special day!

    I was going to say sorry to hear that, but it's probably for the best. Had he come and was in the pictures, they sound like the type who would have insisted you either get rid of all those shots, or have him photoshopped out. Much easier this way! And at least they've apologized and admitted to their atrocious behavior.

    Good luck on your wedding day, and congratulations!
