    I know it's a long way yet, but my h2b and I have been trying to work out how to do our tables, and its a nightmare! As some of you may already know, I lost my mom a few years ago, and in my opinion, only have the one dad (which some may from up on also), but it was my grandparents that basically raised me as a kid, so I wanted them with my dad on the top table on my side and have our daughter between myself and my h2b and my h2b was going to have his mom and both of his dad's on his side...However, my Grampy is 100% against this wedding. I love my Grampy dearly, and I've always been a Grampies girl, so when I mentioned the table plan to them, my Grampy straight out refused the idea and said that I shouldn't even expect to see him there. He looked like he was having a coronary attack just thinking about it! :( am I being unreasonable in being so upset by this? :( xoxox

    I don't think your being unreasonable at all :( I think your Grampy is the one being unreasonable to be honest, you obviously love him very much and it's an honour for you to ask to have him on your top table, so for him to refuse and to say he might not even be at the wedding is awful.

    Do you think he will calm down and change his mind? What is your Grandma's view on it all? Will she talk him around?

    May just be that he expects it to be done as tradition. Old fashioned in his thinking .

    He should be happy for you really despite what his opinions are ... And as everyone says you should be allowed to make your own decisions and mistakes x
