Since viewing more posts I have found that I do not have to invite a guest that makes people uncomfortable. Yeah! or so I thought.
Question:
How do we loose the unwanted guest while retaining family unity?
Reason:
The guest is the BF (less than 6mo) of one of the Bmaids who happens to be the sister of the groom. This man is rude and does not accept/appreciate the cultural event of this wedding and more over than anything he is just unpleasent to be around.
We have spoke with MOG/FOG and they have expressed that we should have him because it would be detremental the groom if he did not invite this guest. (No futher explanation given from his parents) They have not told us the truth on why he should be there and we're stuck as to what to do next.
Please advise.
Thank You and much appreciated

Dear Mixed Up and Worn Out,
The parents of the bride don't have inviting rights, so it really doesn't matter what they want--cold, I realize, but true.
The problem is that this is a bridesmaid's significant other, because they are in a relationship. But, if he is a problem, you have an obligation to the rest of the guests to protect them. (major dilemma)
There is no one, right way to do this. So, if it were me and I was the bride, I would ask my fiance to have a discussion with his sister about her boyfriend. Hopefully he would inform her that he didn't feel comfortable inviting her boyfriend and why. After all, it is his sister and he would have to be on board with the decision.
