I'm the MOB and my husband and I have offered to pay for the reception. We were going over the guest list with my daughter and she does not want her brother's girlfriend invited at all, which will upset my son who is in the wedding party. He will probably not attend.
My husband and I do not agree with this decision and it will cause problems in the family. We have always been a close family and this is stressing to all of us.
The guest list seemed to be mostly the groom's side of the family and we are paying for the reception.

Re: [Trish] Brother's girlfriend not invited
[In reply to]
Dear Trish,
The bride rules in all things wedding, as long as the groom's wishes are respected. It really doesn't matter who is paying. It is all about the couple.
But, if she is his long standing girl friend, she should be invited. If the girlfriend has been cruel to the bride in the past, then the bride has a right to keep her off of the list though. No one should have to invite someone who isn't kind to them.
