Other family members weighing in

Mrs.evans, on June 23, 2022 at 7:40 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 23
Ok hi everyone ok here we go yesterday I gotten a call from my son that is in the army. He calls me and ask am I really getting married I sent them a invitation my daughter in law and she told that they have received it. So by them saying that threw me off when say he does have money to waste. And I said yes and I asked him why would you say that. So then he start questioning me about his god brother. And business conversations that we had about considering him as too cater for us. I was trying to help him out as well on putting his name out. Since this would be his first big job as for a wedding is considered. But I felt very upset with my son trying to weigh in on this matter because he's not helping me. With no part of my wedding and also I'm upset my god son for discussing what. We spoke about business matter with my son. I took it as a professional business arrangement and he shouldn't be discussing this with my son. He's not helping out financially with my wedding. And what I business that discuss with my god son should not be casually a topic between them too anything. Can not and doesn't have no say in my reception of my wedding. But he is throwing a retirement from the army for his mother in law.Am I wrong for feeling this way

    Hey Monique! Does your son & Godson have a relationship? Does your son not want him to do your wedding because he’s doing your son army party? Is it that your son wanted more details since he’s doing his as well or was he just trying to be funny about the situation?

    Yes they do but I just don't like that like that if we are having a business discussion leave with us unless he was trying to help out. Which I know that he isn't helping me and I said that I have a tight budget. Now yes I would have liked if he came down on his price but i know that it is his business. It is bothering me the fact that he needed to point out that he is planning a party for his in law but yet your speaking on my my wedding

    Yeah, I feel you. Especially when one doesn’t have anything to do with the other. Business is business. In my opinion, anyone that isn’t contributing doesn’t have a say so.

    Imani that's what I said my middle daughter thinks that I'm jealous of what he is doing for his in laws. No I'm not jealous just hurt and made if he isnt helping out he shouldn't said nothing. At first in the beginning of planning of the wedding he tells me that hlhim and his family wasn't coming to my wedding. It hurt for a minute but then I put it behind me. We weren't on talking terms until my daughter in law told him to call me to let me know that he was called to go to Ukraine. Which I'm happy that he didn't and if anything happened that the last words that were said was very harsh. So I dont know why he had to feel the need to tell me what I should be doing.

    Trust me I understand. It has nothing to do with jealousy. Just don’t speak on your wedding when he’s not putting any money towards it. He can focus on the retirement party for his mother in law & leave the business between you and your Godson out of it.

    Exactly and I haven't spoken too him about the wedding since that last talk. Since it had been some months so I prayed and hoped that he felt differently. So I sent them a invitation anyway and just waited for a reply. Now with this new info that I received I know now that I'm not as important to him. But I will put that aside to

    Hopefully between now and then he will come to his senses. I’m sure it’ll be nice for him to attend the wedding.

    Yes it would I said if I had ever gotten married that I wanted all of my son to give me away. I have it would have been a very moment that we would have shared and have a memory of. So I just started planning around 2 of my sons. That it only may be 2 and I'm ok with it now. And I will only 2 sons to walk me down the aisle. My children are very important to me is it the reason why our wedding is a family affair. After I had lost a very special person that meant the world me too is in heaven and I still having a hard time with but take it day by day

    Thank you so much Monique girl!!! Everything is going well. We ended up adding an additional color to the wedding smh (don’t even get me started) but I go tomorrow to a local seamstress for my alternations. Britany and her BM tux will be ready for pick up a few days before the wedding.
    I actually got a call today to schedule our cake tasting, so we will do that July 11th. I have to order my tiara & jewelry and get a card box and I think we’re good to go. I’m so excited!

    Oh ok that's all great news and you getting things narrowed down. We still have to book the DJ and cake and our hotel but that wont be a problem. And getting him and his groomsmen to get on the ball for there tuxedos. Plus find a space to rehearse at because our venue have an event all the time. And home recovery from my first procedure I had done for my back round 2 is next month. I'm home doing the RSVP cards counts and adding person on the list now we are at 61 ppl 🤦🏽‍♀️😂😂
