Objection

Yes I was in a wedding five years, where the officiant asked this question. The groom looked back at one person, who I guess did not approve, but they kept silent. I honestly didn't know why really asked this question 😂😂. The groom said even if anyone objected I know what's for me. They now have 2 kids and living their best life.

We elected to not have this included in the ceremony just as we took "obey" out of our vows.

We’re not having it either, all of our guests are our closest friends and family that support our relationship and adore us, there would be no point.

I feel like there are other ways to prove his family doesn't have anything against you, like them just being nice or civil at family gatherings. This seems like an oddly specific request.
We won't be having this because it's pretty outdated and there's no reason to include it in the ceremony where regardless of if anyone did say anything (which no one would bc that's weird) we'd still be getting married.
I just don't see the point to it, I guess. If someone has a problem with your marriage, why wait until right before the I do's to voice that concern?
I've never seen it used in the weddings I've been to, either, but those were all for friends and family in the last 5 years so maybe it just phased out on the west coast?
If it makes you uncomfortable to have because of those two family members, say you don't want it included in the ceremony. If it's really just about proving that his family doesn't have anything against you, tell him what other ways that can be proved.
Otherwise, I doubt they'd say anything anyway because it'd just be so weird and awkward to do that.

Yes, I played violin at a beach wedding and the officiant said this, and then he said for real, y’all can’t be running your mouths after this. It was super awkward.

I elected to also not have this question asked during mine

What a stressful moment! Is there a plan for if someone DOES say something?

Historically this question was included in case there was a legitimate (usually legal) reason that the two should not be married. Such as one already being married, one being underage, the two being related, etc.

"I don't support it" isn't really a valid response to the question since it's not really a reason the wedding shouldn't go forward.

Check out this Reddit thread on the subject.

I think leaving out the objection completely is best. To me it's just super awkward for everyone!

I go to a ton of weddings and I’ve never seen that said. I honestly just thought that was something in movies.

I have been to many many weddings (I am 54) and I don't remember hearing this. Why would you tee it up for someone? Leave it off.

Omg I would've died if I was there. That's terrible and also funny.
