If you've ready any of my previous threads, I'll apologise for repeating myself.
Long and short of it is my h2b family are making my life VERY difficult.
From my sil2b not wanting the pb, her son wearing a grey kilt as it reminds her of a funeral (!), her husband choosing a very different football type kilt despite my h2b insisting that all the wedding party to wear same kilts
sil2b saying that the hen nite was too expensive at £35 for a 3 course meal/ drink of wine/karaoke cubicle for an hour with party/cocktail/retro sweets/decor/entertainment and that she and her mother would only go to the meal and karaoke (making it a logistical nightmare)
then saying that she couldn't go to the hen as the stag was the same night (no-one to babysit kids) even though h2b hadn't even discussed with anyone who, what, where, when and if he WAS having a stag.
Then fil2b saying he wasn't going to go to the still non-existant stag as it wasn't his scene! H2b still really hurt but no arrangements even made yet.
Now I've got the sil2b saying that she, her mother and her aunt don't like anything on the set menu for the hen and that they will have from the al a carte. This will, again, make things a logistical nightmare as we will have to faff about with money, menus etc and then other parties will be like ooh what you got there and start a faff fest. AND this would make their part be just as expensive as it was originally!
We've got problems with our venue adding on costs which is causing alot of tension so am seeing them tonight and hopefully won't take a berkie at them.
What I really need some input on is, am I being too sensitive with the inlaws and their actions? Should I sit down with them and ask what the hell is going on? Why can't they just turn up like everyone else and do what they are asked or do I leave it and let h2b deal with it, which he probably won't?
I've had enough and I do feel like telling them to either do what we want or to not bother going as this isn't their day and are making it hell for us to bend things round them.

I don't think you're being oversensitive at all, it's your wedding and people should respect your wishes and what you want to do.
Can't wait until the day I become Mrs. Johnson :)

no way are you being the sensitive one what a bunch of idiots they are i would put my foot down but with a smile id just say well its a pity you feel that way about the pb outfit but thats what we have picked but if you dont want him to be a pb then thats ok as for the hen night id say look this is what they have booked for me if you feel its not your scene then we could always have a little dvd and takeaway night for you all on another night as for the stag do that up to h2b i think but i guess they are doing it on purpose your wedding your way hun sod the lot of them xxxxx
