Am i being dramatic or it was simply rude?

"If he thinks that he’s “paying admission” and that we shouldn’t get married."

That sentence I believe refers to having a wedding, not getting married. Getting married isn't expensive when you can just got down to the courthouse and get married. It's the "Wedding" that's expensive

Their complete rudeness aside, there will always be guests who don't like cash funds/honeyfunds/etc. Assuming you were asking for fund to pay for your wedding was inappropriate. I doubt I would continue any relationship with them after reading your post

Good for your future husband for being able to see how you were feeling and graciously leave their house. However, you have invited them. You handed them the invitation. you cannot un-invite people without altering the relationship you and your fiancé have with them (If yall agree on that decision, go for it!), and to top it off, these are his best friends parents who have been in his life since he was a child. I personally would just let them attend, not go out of my way to interact with them before, during (except thank you for coming), and after the wedding. I personally wouldn't choose this battle to fight since there is more than just their relationship with your FH, there's him and his bestman as well and would add more stress overall. Good Luck!

100% with you on the first paragraph.

Moving forward, you and your husband need to set boundaries. It won't be easy specially if your FH still wants them in his life. I have some friends who have been married for 6 years and one spouse does not go to family events if a specific family member will be there. It was hard for them to navigate, but his spouse respected his boundary and goes alone, while his husband stays at home and it's worked for them. No matter what there will be some friction, and it may take time.

Realistically, how often do you see this couple? If it's quite a bit, you need to sit down and tell them how you feel they treat you, and have your husband there to make sure they don't interrupt (I have a co-worker who does this to me in the middle of sentences and it annoys the crap out of me), and lay it out on the table. There isn't a simple solution unfortunately. Do nothing, you're miserable. Go zero contact without discussion , miserable (speculation and gossiping), lay it out in the table and set some boundaries, uncomfortable. Make sure you and your husband are on the same page and have a plan.

Yeah for sure! I would sit down with your fiancé and really talk about it. Hopefully he will be on your side or at least stand up for you so you can be comfortable with those people being there.

That was beyond rude at his part. Good for you both on walking away. They don't seem like, "nice people" it seems like a facade for people who can be manipulative and harbor deep grudges.

In any case, keep in mind that what people will do for their biological family, they may do out of duty and necessity regardless of the situation. They may ingratiate themselves with you or your FH, but they have show their true colors and made it clear that the bond is not the same.

As long as the best man isn't involved in what his parent's opinions are, and is not disrespectful then your husband should still keep him as the best man- but keep in mind that the discussion does not need to be elaborated any further or vented to the best man. Doing so may cause an unnecessary rift for now.

Going forward, since you already have invited the parents of the best man don't invite these folks over to anything until the day of the wedding for the sake of your sanity. If you do run into them or HAVE to see them for any reason, avoid the topic of gifts all together. Should they poke or prod, have your fiancé state graciously something to the effect of,

"Amy and I are still keeping our registry the same. Since we have already devoted our time into work, owning a home and furnishing it, and covering the costs of (the job they didn't pay for, but mention the company name only), the honeymoon is just the one gift we want. We don't want our guests to overthink things, or feel like they have to pay a fortune or an admission fee. We just want to keep things simple".

(Microphone drop. End of subject.)

If they try to aggravate you or instigate a fight, just become a broken record with "wanting to keep things simple/ this is the one gift you want" or leave. No discussions.

Its so sad. Money makes people funny. But at least you know how they are now, and what to avoid.
