I know our wedding is a little way off yet but H2B family NEVER mention it or ask about it/seem to want any info
This is starting to get on my nerves a bot and i feel like calling/texting to ask if they would like to know anything about the wedding. Am i just being petty?

No, youre not being petty at all. Don't contact them though. If ey wanted to find out more, then they would have asked. They cam't be expected to be asked to be bridesmaids, best man when you decide on that xx

Well when we got engaged (it was a long time coming!) SIL2B said to MIL " i hope she is having Nicole (SIL2B daughter) as FG!!! All because i was her MOH ( I was 21, just had a baby and did not have a clue what i should of been doing and we are not that close AT ALL!) I am having Nicole as FG as it only seemed right but then that meant her son would have to be included somehow as he would be the only child at the day not in the bridal party Our 2 children are FG and PB plus my sis is MOH and her 2 children FG & PB SO....we felt we had to ask her son (who will be 11 at time of wedding) to be PB and we really regret that now....wond3ering if we can downgrade him to usher?
Also (god im rambling now) since finding out SIL2B held a bday party for Nicole, in Dec at a play centre 2 mins away from our house (which is a good 8 miles from them) and did not invite our 2 (all very close in age) Im now seriously debating whether to have her at all!!!
Throw this all in with them not being interested and ive just about had enough!

tbh i`d make the 11yr old an usher much more grown up job ... can you put him in charge of something
Yeah thats what i thought. Didnt think he would want too be part of the bridal party at all but he said yes when he was asked (by SIL2B....not us!!!!) Think maybe he can give out button holes and direct people to seats etc?

I dont think your being petty but not everyone wants to hear about your wedding plans. I dont mean that rudely but when we got engaged and loads of cards and presents and then thats it from everyone but because its at least a year away people arent interested until nearer the time and my H2B families havent asked anything about it. I was upset and talked to my mum and she said its ok to run ideas past her and my H2B but dont bore everyone else talking about it and just tell them the important information nearer the time.
Im sorry if that sounds harsh but not meant to be xxx
Finally marrying the love of my life !!

I wouldnt say your being petty at all but my h2b's parents are exactly the same but really they dont show much emotion at all.

Yeah i guess, spoke to mum about it too and she said just keep on planning and choosing without them and when they say "oh why are you doing that" or "you didnt tell us" just tell them they never asked or showed an interest!
TBH i've got enough agro with my dad thinking he can tell me what to do and my mum insisting we have a band! lol

hey
with the time that you have what id do is collect you ideas together for the smaller things but get yourself sorted out with your venue firstly as its one of the biggest choice you make.
when we got engaged last june it was the first thing we did but after we booked it i was told to forget about the wedding till at least january. i found it hard cos i wanted to sort out my dress next which (on the day my sister was in active labour) i did after much persuasion to my mum go and choose my dress. but i have found now its 8 and a bit months to the wedding we are now being asked questions about it, band, kilt hire etc.
tbh i dont think its that they arent interested maybe its cos of the time you have still to go!!! xxxxx
All the ways of my life id rather be with you.
Theres no way without you.
