We are down in Florida visiting the future in-laws for the holiday, and wrapping up wedding details as we go. My darling fiance learns and tells me today that his brother invited two of his friends, thinking they would not be able to make it to CT for the wedding. And never says anything to either of us. They tell him today that they are coming, and need to know what hotel to stay at. So my fbil calls my fiance to ask like it is nothing. My fiance handles it all, and then tells me what is up.
Internally, I lost my sh!t! I am not mad that they invited someone else, actually I had to dragggg their side of the guest list out of them on multiple occasions. we verified all addresses several times with them, and have been working on seating charts for the last two days! I am so upset that this couple did not get the same treatement all of our other guests have, including fancy save the dates and even fancier handmade invitations. I am also incredibly hurt that he would just invite someone off the cuff, like this was just some Saturday night barbecue we were having where it was the more the merrier. It feels like complete disrespect for the countless hours of thinking and work I have done planning every single detail of the whole affair. I understand that no one on the Earth could ever care about this as much as I do, but please don't dismiss everything I have done with a spur of the moment invitation.
My fiance handled it incredibly well. He told me I could go scream as loud as I needed, he would let me do whatever I needed to deal with my I anger. I explained the above to him, after I hid out back behind the hottub with stress tears running down my face. He thought that was the worst part, and kissed them away. So I am getting over this now, adding that couple into the fold like everyone else, and am feeling so thankful to be marrying my wonderful fiance.
What kind of craziness have you all been up to?
