My grandmother invited a childhood friend of my father's-- whom my father has been estranged from for his ENTIRE adult life. My father has no interest in rekindling this relationship & has firmly stated-- especially at my wedding. The childhood friend, who has never met me or my future husband has reported (on a post my grandmother tagged me in on facebook-- uggh facebook!) that he, his girlfriend and adult son will be attending so and so's wedding (my name and fiance's name!!) and he needed details.
How do I solve this? Do I ask my grandmother to solve this?
I don't think I should put my father in the middle. I don't know the man and don't want to be seen as a nasty jerk, but I'll do what I have to do, because, we don't have the space nor does my father desire these peoples' presence... and then of course, it's on facebook now and I just had to uninvite uninvited adult cousins of my fiance's-- The aunt and uncle were invited but rsvp'd for themselves, their adult/married wife and her husband and their NEW baby (that live in a different home/town!!) (she, by the way, has been married twice and never invited my fiance to either of her weddings?!) so I explained that we had a very small chapel and couldn't accommodate all of our family-- that they weren't able to be invited...was that the correct move?
Any feedback about these things that will stop my racing mind are greatly appreciated.
uggh. weddings!
Any thoughts?
