No one in family excited for me

😕 I’m sorry Christen!! Unfortunately no one will ever be as excited for your wedding/marriage as you. I’ve really found that to be true with 2 years of planning lol. Love on your FH and enjoy being engaged! Don’t worry how anyone else feels about it!

I’m sorry you feel that way. At the end of the day, I’m gemetal, not many are more excited than the bride and groom and that’s okay.

My fiance’s family doesn’t seem at all interested in our wedding. It’s basically just my mom, a couple relatives on her side, and friends. For him, he’s the youngest of three with one older sister married twice, so he thinks his parents are just kind of burned out on weddings and don’t really care at this point. They were happy to meet me and are super sweet, I really like them, but he feels a bit disappointed and neglected since they can’t muster up any enthusiasm, or even fake it. It sucks when this happens! Sometimes people change their excitement as you get closer but for his family some of them just seem to be going out of obligation. So I get how you’re feeling!!

Give them some more time, respect it when they don’t show signs of wanting to be involved or hear about it too much, and hopefully they will come around as you get closer or as it isn’t quite such a primary topic of discussion. I found that the less we talk about it, the more people ask questions.

I hope they come around for you!!!!!

My mom seems unenthusiastic about it. My dad passed. They both loved him at first then when we had a few breakups, they didn’t like him. I’m sad that my dad isn’t here to walk me down the aisle. He would have been happy for me regardless of how he felt about FH. He still respected him. But he’s my choice. My FH. Now mom heard me saying I would elope instead. She was sad. I’m not sure what to do. It will come to me.

I am so sorry you are going through this.....and sadly, I went through the same thing. Still haven't received much excitement from ANYONE. BUT, we are 3 months out and I predict there will be a little more excitement once our date gets closer. Hopefully it'll be the same for you! Try not to let it get you down.

No one will ever be as excited for your wedding as you are. Movies make it seem like it is this frenzy of family and friends fawning over you. That doesn't happen. Or if it does it's at an event like a shower.

Lower your expectations and you will be a lot happier.

It's never something to expect because then you'll always be dosappointed! Everyone has lots going on it their life and stressors, they may or may not be excited but I wouldn't let it bother you! You didn't get engaged for their reaction, but to marry your best friend! ♡

When I was wedding planning, this was the most difficult thing to comprehend for the longest time, but PP's are right. No one will be as excited for your wedding day as you.

And I can assure you, that as your date gets closer, everyone gets much more excited.

I have 3 sisters and not one has acted excited about it. Only my maid of honor, my mom and my aunt have acted excited or interested.

I wish my sister would be more excited; it just seems like they can't be happy for me. :/
