My Ex, My Daughter's Daddy.. and family

My Ex and I have not been together since the day our daughter was born, we have a friendly relationship (for the sake of our daughter). I maintain a close, close relationship to my Ex's brother, wife & children (in fact, I nannied for them for 2 1/2 years) and really want to invite them to my wedding - Where I am running into questions is with the rest of his family (My Ex's other brother/wife/children, sister/husband/children, his parents & my Ex) I do have a friendly relationship with all of them as well, but we are not close. I do not think my Ex would want to come and I dont think HE would be happy if I invited the rest of his whole family but I know his parents & other brother expect an invite too. What do I do?! Is it rude to only invite one of his brothers/wife/kids? My fiance is indifferent. HELP!

  • Invite who you want to, who you're close to, screw the rest. They are friends at this point.

  • I'm with chattychiqua; the family you want to invite are your friends.  You wouldn't invite any of your OTHER friends' parents and siblings, frankly it would be weird if you did. 
  • Invite whoever you want. I am really good with friends with my ex (my daughter's father). I invited him to my wedding. I didn't invite his family. 

    I think you would be fine just inviting the brother and his wife. Kate is right, you wouldn't invite other friends' parents and siblings. No need to do it in this situation.
