So we just got engaged, but the other day we were sitting at my FMIL's house just talking about different elements of the wedding....and somehow the topic of transportation came up. My fiance is the only one in his family that drives, and his parents are divorce but live right around the corner from each other. They divorced several years ago and although they don't talk, they don't hate each other. Somehow it was suggested that we (my fiance and I) would be willing to rent a car to transport them to and from on the big day, but my FMIL said something to my fiance along the lines of "well I hope you're not expecting your father and I to share a car, we haven't spoken in years!"
What does everyone else think? I was kind of taken back, considering 1.) they live right around the corner from each other and it would save us on having to rent two vehicles, 2.) We are paying for the wedding ourselves (with maybe a small donation from my parents). I understand it might be a little bit awkward since they haven't really spoken in awhile, but can't they suck it up for a few hours on their son's wedding day? They saw each other a few months ago when their granddaughter was born and the hospital didn't burn down so I don't understand why they can't sit next to each other for a drive. I obviously don't have to worry about this for awhile but this is my first "FMIL moment" and I thought it was kind of....I don't know, a little bold of her to expect us to shell out extra dough we don't necessarily have?
Maybe I'm thinking too much into this....it is still very early to be planning this sort of thing!
Any input would be great!
EDIT: My fiance is absolutely not driving anyone, anywhere, on his wedding day. That was never an option for us. We would probably end up renting a car and chauffeur to take them around the day of. His dad is really the one who needs transportation and is perfectly fine sharing a car with his ex-wife if need be.
