I've been meeting some issues head on this entire week with both FI and my family and I swear nobody is happy.
FI's family wants to host a shower with just his side - which I suppose is fine, but my family lives in Barbados so it's not like they can host a shower for me. My MOH (who is my cousin and only relative nearby) is not invited and neither are my friends so it's me and the in-laws.
I asked my mother to look through the vows to make sure they were gramatically correct and she freaked because they weren't religious. I gently let her down that I'm not religious at all and that won't be necessary - she's still freaking out and looking for a bible somewhere.
Both MOB and MOG have officially decided that the other's traditions at the wedding are odd so we're going to have a conversation with the respective parents about being considerate of each other's customs and traditions at the wedding.
I don't think we ever had the hard part of an interracial relationship before today so now we have to figure it out...
Any suggestions?
