I am getting married to the man of my dreams in June and I am very excited!!! I love his family and want to get closer to them in this time. He has one sister, a sister-in-law, and his brother has a serious girlfriend who is normally included in all family gatherings, as well as his mom.
I know some families automatically include their future in-laws (like sisters of the groom) in the bridal party, but since neither my fiance's sister or sister-in-law had each other in their weddings, I opted to just have my closest friends in my wedding.
Any ideas on how do draw the ladies (including his mom) into the excitement? I've made a point to show them my dress even though I didn't bring them shopping, and when they ask questions and I am eager to answer them. I just want to include them and need a little help figuring out in what ways.
