So help me?

Destiny, on June 14, 2019 at 1:43 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 8
Fh has decided he wants it to be family only wedding/reception meaning his best man isnt going to be invited anymore so i just told one of my bridesmaids that we've decided not to have a wedding party. I look at in the way of her not having to buy a 80 dollar dress. Hope she doesnt get annoyed her kid is my ring bearer her other kid is my flower girl and both might as well ne sisters in law via my brothers

    Okay, but what do you want? He should have brought this up before you asked your friends and their families to be part of your wedding.

    I was thinking the same thing as Caytlyn. Is this his decision or was this something you guys decided together? If it's not what you want, you should have a conversation about how you feel about it so there will be no regrets as you get closer to the day.

    To second what’s been said. Was this a conversation or did your FH just announce this? How far are you in the planning processes? Going from bridal party to not invited is pretty jarring and can be damaging to a relationship. Is there a reason for a friend?

    Same as these other 2 ladies, was it a choice together or just his?
    And with her kids being part of your wedding, does that mean she is still invited then, or is she going to have to bring her kids and leave? Because that's shady.

    Wow.

    I bet the best man feels horrible and that relationship will probably be over at this point. Asking someone to be your best man and then changing and telling them they aren't even invited to the wedding is just horrible.

    You said you told 1 BM that there won't be a bridal party anymore. What happened with the other bridesmaids? Also, are you having this BMs children in your wedding but not inviting her?

    If there won't be a wedding party, why are there still a ring bearer and flower girl?

    Hopefully everyone whos commented will se without me doing individual replies to everyone. A. He hasn't even asked his bestman. B. Bridesmaids are definitely still invited. C. Yes it was a discussion, we've decided to do a more informal style wedding we went from a 2000 venue to waiting for reservations to open for next year at the parks. D. I want the flower girl and ring bearer because they are my niece and nephew and want them to be a part of the ceremony. My sister in laws go asked BECAUSE i have no close friends
