Ask yourself these questions.
Do you want your father to be angry because you didn't include his new wife?
Do you want to start your new life off with this kind of thing with your father's new wife?
Would it impact your relationship with your father? Fellow Bride

Think about it this way, whether you like her or not, she's a part of your family and your life right now. When you consider the bigger picture and your lifelong relationship with your father, your decision will become more clear.
I'm all for looking for what's right about this situation, and what possible gifts might be in this for you. Emily Bouchard, MSSW, Life Coach, Speaker, and Trainer
