My fiance and I are pretty much paying for our wedding by ourselves.
Which is fine.
Although it is quite irritating to know that my fiance's parents paid for a large portion of his younger brother's wedding. My fiance gets what feels like the short end of the stick constantly, but we carry on. He's one of a few kids.
But this weekend, my fiance's parents told us they were paying for the rehearsal dinner. Which was news to me. (Different post.) And this dude has the audacity to start yelling about how he had to pay for the meat for his rehearsal. And his wife, his dad, and his mom all looked at him like they were going to injure him. Because they paid for so much of the whole thing.To which my fiance [finally] asked the question I've been wondering. "Well how much of their wedding did you pay for?"We didn't get an answer.

But I find it entirely cringeworthy for this FBIL of mine to whine and throw a fit about money, when his parents obviously gave them way more than they're giving us.
How uncouth.
Anybody else have whiny FBILs?

No, but my fbil is bringing a woman he's been dating that we're not sure what their actual status is. But they've been dating for over a year? We didn't see her the last time we were there nor did hear about her. But he added her as his plus one. I hope to god this guy didn't force this lady he's casually dating to be his date to his brother's wedding. Not for our sake but for his! We have met, so not a complete stranger. Just adjacent to that for us? Hopefully she doesn't feel overwhelmed by a predominantly family wedding.

I am so sorry and sometimes some siblings are very spoiled. My friend says that when she got married to her husband that his parents kind of treated him the same way and it's always treated his sister a little bit better especially in regards to money. Nights they're paying for the rehearsal but on the bright side the good thing about them not paying for your wedding guess they can't dictate anything you guys do.

This made me cringe for you! Thankfully, I’m the one with the brother and my brother is the only family member my FH really likes 😂

Good luck to you!

This is just sad. I am one of 8. I was telling my fh this. My parents have helped my older brother so much. My fh was telling me that they see that he needs more things. But i tell him that parents tends to forget that other kids just want feel wanted, i don't know if that makes sense. Just offering is something. But i do feel for your fh and i know it hurts you to know that. But it's amazing how supportive you are. That's all he wants.
