I'm desperate for advice! I have 73 days left until our wedding April 9.
73!! I've been engaged for a year and my mother and I have been planning everything ourselves. I asked all of my bridesmaids to be a part of my wedding a week after my engagement. I told my fiance to ask his guys to be groomsmen also. To this date he has yet to ask his brother-in- law, picked out the groomsmen attire/get fitted, or booked a rehearsal dinner. Yesterday we were eating lunch with his father, who for the first time in a year asked about wedding details, and his father asked who all the wedding party was. When we told him my fiance's cousin, who I told my fiance he needed to include, wasn't a groomsmen he flipped out! He was saying that we were going to hurt a lot of feelings (what I've been saying all along, but no one listened) So now my fiance wants me to add another bridesmaid so he can add his cousin. His dad and he think I should add his sister, who I do not get along with and is 7 years older than myself and all of my friends. His sister is spoiled and pouts (33 year old with a baby who acts like a child) and hasn't offered to help or even pretended to help. I've tried asking her advice and opinion on things since she did have a wedding herself 4 years ago and she just says Hmm I guess, or I don't remember. Plus, I ordered my bridesmaids dresses at the end of November and they won't come in until the beginning of March. I've been begging and pleading for help and now with 73 days remaining they decide they need to jump in and panic about the wedding party! What do I do?! I literally wanted to throw up yesterday, and my fiance thinks I could just order his rude sister another dress and call the printer and fix the programs before they print, like it's no problem. I'm sorry my post is so long, I just do not know what to do anymore. How have others dealt with a non helpful groom/in laws?? Or am I being a baby about his sister? She has been rude to my family and acted like a brat and threw a fit in front of everyone, I just don't want her around me or my friends stressing me out on mine and her brother's big day. I just don't want to be the pot calling the kettle black by throwing a fit, like she would do, but i'm on the verge.
