Pregnant sister in law + wedding date

Your sister shouldn't move her date. I understand that the sister in law may not feel like attending, but in the other hand she may feel completely fine and enjoy the night around friends and family. I could understand if the wedding was set on her due date, but since that's not the case, I wouldn't change a thing.

She shouldn't move the date. I currently have a pregnant FSIL and dealt with stuff like that

Your sister should keep the date.

When planning a wedding, you can't make everyone happy, so find what works best for the majority of the VIPs.

I'd rather have a newborn and go to a wedding, than be 9 months pregnant at one.

Edit: misread when she was due. Either way, keep the date.

4 weeks before the due date should be fine if the wedding is local to the pregnant sister. I mean, she may cut out early, but she should be able to attend the ceremony at least. I've been at weddings where the MOH was 8 months pregnant, and it was fine!

The only exception I can think of is if the wedding is a ways away for her and she'd have to fly. Women typically are restricted from flying by that point in the pregnancy.

She shouldn't move her wedding date. First of all, it's FOUR weeks, she's not due the same day as the wedding.

Second, shit happens at times that aren't convenient sometimes. People have to go on with their lives even if that means that someone might be inconvenienced. Just like the bride would be out of place to be upset that a baby is due around her wedding date (the nerve) the mom-to-be is out of place for asking the bride to change her wedding date. Especially after they had some difficulty settling on one.

Her due date falls four weeks AFTER the wedding date. If she goes into labor and delivers a month before her due date, then the wedding and birth date will conflict with each other. The chances of that are slim to none.

Tell the self-centered mother-to-be that life -- family life -- goes on, even in the event of a pregnancy. I would not change the wedding date based on a pregnancy, but I wouldn't even understand the request if it came from a woman whose pregnancy was not coming to term until four weeks after the wedding. Quite simply, she's asking too much (and she was rude to even ask). If she can't attend the wedding for a pregnancy related reason, then life will go on. Asking the couple to move their date for the convenience of one guest (which would lead to inconvenience for another VIP guest) is asking too much.

Hell no she should not

Love her date!!

What should she do? Tell the pregnant check that she'll miss her if she can't make it. Bye.

Oh, and keep her date.

"Thank you FSIL for you input regarding the date of our wedding. However we had to take a lot of things into account when choosing our date. We found this date to work for the majority of people and will be sticking with it. We hope you still feel like attending, but will completely understand if you are not feeling up to the event."

Please send a big gift, or write a large check in lieu of your attendance. (Just kidding!!)

No dates get moved.

Audrey nailed it.

I should add when one of my brothers got married, he was living in a location where the rest of the family had to fly to. The SIL of my other brother was 8 months pregnant and wasn't allowed to fly. Brother getting married kept the date and the rest of the family took lots of pictures. End of story.

The younger sister has a mission trip? Is that something she can reschedule? I wouldn't ask a family member to reschedule a trip because of my wedding. Both sisters have the choice on whether or not they attend the wedding. I don't think she should change her date if it's taken a long time to find one that works for her. She should just be ready if they decline the invite.

I'd tell the sister in law to shove it. That's ridiculous for her to want the wedding to be moved

It's your date. I wouldn't change it. I found out after I set my date that it was the same date of my half-sister's anniversary. We are still getting married on the date that we decided on. My half-sister and her husband are delighted to be sharing the same anniversary with us.

Keep her date. I hate when people assume that their presence and comfort is all that matters. Explain to FSIL that the date is firm, and you will be hoping she feels well enough to be there. If not then "see ya later!"

Didn't someone ask this same exact question but from her own POV just like... 3 days ago?

My oldest daughter is 3 months pregnant...due 5 weeks after our wedding....she would never consider asking us to change the date...how selfish can someone be....

No dates should be moved whatsoever!

Don't change your date! She is just being picky.

4 weeks before her due date is a lot of time. She shouldn't move the date.
