Would you be furious if people including family that you did not invite shows up at the wedding? I invited family members who I talk to and didn't go mia.. but you know when it's a wedding everybody all of a sudden wants to be invited... my sister went to a wedding last month and said unwanted guest...

    If I had to check in to a wedding with a doorman/bouncer to get in as an invited guest, I would side eye the fuck out of the couple. Exception: The ceremony and/or reception is at a higher security location like a boat or military base.

    We aren't inviting FFIL or FSIL to our wedding. This was FH's decision. I am very worried that at minimum FFIL might show up. There will be no food/seat available, and he will be asked to leave. Forced to leave if needed.

    We are worried FH's mom will show up. She is nothing but drama. Currently she is in between jail and being homeless. Sad to say but I hope she is somewhere where there would be no way she could come. We only hear from her when she needs money.

    Excuse my language but oh hell no! There is at least one person specifically that I will NOT have at my wedding. This day is about you, the people who you love, the people who helped you grow, not the people that either didn't deal with you or tried to mess up your life. I will be informing my parents (who see her on a near daily basis because she's dating my brother) that the day is about Trenton and I and us becoming one and growing together. If people get offended, they should have been decent to you! Such a snobby thing to do though - if you know anybody who might try that game, inform them or their close family. Might sound rude, but you have your reasons.

    Oh absolutely. I would be LIVID.

    No worries though, if it should happen to me... they will be escorted out.

    There are always people who show up to weddings who don't rsvp and a lot of times people bring children who weren't invited.
