I know from reading some threads that a lot of brides fathers wont be there on the big day but is there anyone whose mum isnt coming due to family issues and not just because they cant? My h2b mum isnt going to be there,as she has caused a lot of trouble in the past couple years and she hasnt had contact with any of h2b family for over a year although she has tried. The thing is before all that she was a lovely woman and her and my h2b were really close. She started drinking heavily and a LOT of terrible things happened due to the drink and my h2b has vowed never to speak to her again. I cant help but feel sad though that she will miss out on her only sons big day? Not to mention any grandkids that come along? I would never in a million ask h2b to invite her because of the things that have happened but i still feel bad about it. Im just wondering if there is anyone else in the same situation?

That must be awful Hun and it appears to be the drink and not her. The problem is even if h2b did look past the awful past comments, drink does flow at weddings and you wouldn't want your day marred with mil rants. Hope it doesn't put a dampener on your day and hope mil sorts herself out eventually x
Its so sad. Especially when its a close family and she was such a nice lady. She had her problems even when i first met her but she was a great mum to my h2b up until a couple years ago.

There's still time to repair the rift but a wedding with all the drinking going on really isn't the time and place. I don't know if she's still drinking or in recovery, but a lot of recovery programs require that she make amends with those that were hurt by her drinking. Hopefully she tries to make amends and part of their relationship can be salvaged. But the only person who can start that is her.
my mother an father are not coming i have spoke about this in a previous discussion. my father havent seen since i was 11. but my mum i used to be close to but not since her new bf. she said she isnt coming but it doesnt bother me its her loss everyone else will be there. it is sad but i think just better off without them there only cause drama

Family feuds are really frustrating when it comes to things like this, but maybe you should speak to your H2B and just see because we all say things like that at some point so maybe it would get him thinking about wheather he does or doesn't want her there. Xx

my mum will not be invited because she is a ***ch. I do love her as she is my mum, but the other half of me hates her. She has put me through so much and i just cant keep forgiving her. If she was invited she would most likely have plenty of snide remarks and let everyone know these. Just want a trouble free day. Sad really butt thats just the way it is. My dad will also not be there x

CommentAuthornatalie2614
Both my parents and h2b's parents will be there although theyre both split up now. It must be horrible to not be able to have your parents there through no fault of your own, but to not tell them the date is quite serious and must be heartbreaking to do xx

My mum will not be coming she has given me nothing but mental problems.... Long story.... I was put into foster care at the age of 5 as my mums new husband lets just say no children should be around him!!! She stayed with him when she could of left him and had me and my younger brother (who was took off her at birth) I did keep in contact with her until I was old enough to make my own mind up about her I gave her the op to come and see me but she never it was always me going to her, so not seen her for 4 years and not talked (texted) her for 3 months as again it was always me texting her to see how she was I never got a text from her. I am now finding it hard sticking to my do not text her rule. But she will not be coming as I do not wont a bad thing on a happy day!!! And if she thinks she is going to be invited she has got another thing coming. I have my Dad, and extended family going to be there for me (my 'Family' numbers are bigger then H2B) so I know I have a good support system around me xx

My OH mum won't be there either. He has got his best man on black bag duty if she turns up lol.
He doesn't talk to her or see her, I have not even met her and from what I have been told I don't want to. She was horrible to him and lied etc Stop him seeing his dad till he was 18 when his dad contacted him.
His dad has remarried and will be 25yrs within days of our wedding. She is close to us and she will be granny to kids. x xx
