| When my boyfriend and I decide to tie the knot, I have worries about how the wedding and reception will go, I moved up to the north with my mother and brother when i was 13, so its only us 3 I have no other family here, my boyfriend however has 7 siblings, and each of them have a wife or girlfriend, then from there almost all of them have children, not to include aunts, uncles and cousins (there is alot) My boyfriend, our 3 year old son and I currently live with my boyfriends parents, I am very close with his family and see them more than my mother and brother who live a distance away. However his family and my mother do not get along very well, and noone has even seen my brother (we have been together 6yrs now) I would like to have his family and my mother and brother all there for our day, but im afraid things will go hay wire. I dont have many friends, its all family (his family which i have come to consider them like my own) How can I go about this? I really want my mother in this. |

| You could save all the drama and have a destination wedding, just the two of you and your son. |

| If there is any way possible, I would have at least one get-together before your big day to see how things will go. I would talk to your mom and try and have a bonding moment with her...tell her that you are so happy and thank her for being there for you- yada. Just stress to both sides how important it is that they are there with you through this...and then don't worry about it anymore. You can't control how they act or feel so just try and enjoy yourself (harder to say than do!). |

| it's your family you will invite them if any of them love you they will behave for you thats why people come to begin with for you. it would be bad of you not to invite your family honey. And really the size thing doesn't matter a lot of people get hung up on it but really it doesn't. good luck and god bless and remeber even if somebody is snarky to somebody else at the wedding they all know why their there it's for you and your guy and you'll know you did the right thing anyway. |

You could sit down and talk to each 'side' individually and tell them that you want them all to be at your wedding but you are worried. However, tell them that it is your day and how upset you will be if anything kicks off. Ask them to respect you and your FH and just be there, wish you good luck and enjoy the day  Tell them that if they do not respect your wishes and anything happens, they will not be seeing either of you or your son for a long long time. Good luck with it, I hope it goes well for you! |
