Ok seriously I can't handle my FFIL right now! We are already having a rehearsal dinner issue with the in-laws because they gave us X budget, but want to invite all of their siblings, despite being already over budget with only the wedding participants (39 with immediate family, readers, gift presenters, priest), but not my Aunts/Uncles. Fiance is handling this as it is stressing me out/making me really mad.
NOW my FFIL calls to tell me some hotel is offering us a GREAT rate if we get enough people to stay there. Heres the thing we are specifically having our reception at a hotel, because 75% of our guests are from out of town, and we are having an open bar. We want no drunk driving, and did not want to pay for shuttles. I know his family doesn't have a lot of money, and the hotel is $100 a night, but really we did this for a reason.
I have now told Fiance to call his Dad and tell him no we do not want another block of rooms, his aunts and uncles are not invited to the rehearsal dinner, and to call him about these things and not me.
On the plus side we have a lot of checklist items done, and at some point I will update my planning bio. Any suggestions for handling my FFIL? I seriously walked away at our nephews birthday party on Sunday because he was annoying me.
