Bridesmaids Luncheon

Nicole, on January 25, 2023 at 1:26 PM Posted in Parties and Events 0 6
So I am trying to figured out who gets invited to the bridesmaid Luncheon. My mom is hosting it for my bridesmaid’s ! So i am inviting my 9 bridesmaids, my mother and my fiancé’s mother. He doesn’t care if his step mom is invited. So it’s up to me to decided if I want to invite her. She hasn’t done much for me. We rarely see his dad and his step mom. His mother has actually done stuff for us as a couple and actually made an effort with me and with him. So that is why I would rather not invite his step mother to the bridesmaid luncheon. Since His half sister & step sister in law are not bridesmaids. Only his full sister is. So it’s like I don’t invite all three of them or I have to invite all three of them. Just to be clear, his step mom, half sister and step sister aren’t getting ready with mom on the day of. Only his mom, my mom, the bridesmaids and my grandmas. Please let me know your thoughts but be nice please. I am super stressed about the entire thing. I don’t take constructive criticism well right now.

    I mean, if you mom is hosting it, she ultimately can determine who is invited. If it's a bridesmaid's lunch, then I would just invite them and leave it at that. That's very nice for your mom to do that!

    Thank you Jack. I do agree that my mom have the right to determine who is invited. The only issue is she doesn’t know who to invite and wants to make sure we aren’t hurting anyone but also doesn’t want to spend $$$$ on a luncheon that is suppose to honor the bridesmaids. So I do agree with you about not inviting them. Yes it is very nice, the main reason why she is doing that is bc she had to spend $$$$ on our friends bridesmaid luncheon and she doesn’t want to burden anyone else with that for her daughters weddings

    Seeing as it's for the bridesmaids then that's the only ones I'd worry about inviting. If others don't like it oh well.

    I'd keep it simple and just invite the bridesmaids. If the female step-family members ask why they weren't invited (which they shouldn't really, but some people may surprise you these days), simply say "It was a bridesmaid's luncheon.....for my bridesmaids" Smiley smile

    Thank you so much for this advice. I will definitely use that. Actually, I found out his step family won’t arrive until after the bridesmaids luncheon anyway. So it all works out in the end. If they end up getting upset, I’ll say I’m so sorry I had no idea that y’all would be in town for it and it was a bridesmaid luncheon. So thank you!!!
