No family Members at the wedding

DIANNE, on August 16, 2018 at 5:06 PM Posted in Family and Relationships 0 6
Hello ,I've just read a few threads about bride's family can't come to their wedding it's heartbreaking.I want to advise on how would I survive my wedding this October.Just a brief background. Me and fiance decided we'll have 2 weddings one in my country then 2nd on his. Since both of our familes can't travel because its expensive and medical reasons.We had the first last June on my side it was amazing day everyone is happy.I came from a close knit family.I'm both close to my parents and siblings.When were home my whole family accepted him warmly and they made sure that he wont feel alone the whole time he was staying with us. October is fast approaching the 2nd wedding is about to happen and I'm already having mixed feelings about it. Unlike other brides my husband's Immediate family (mom and sisters) are not warm to me at all.To them I will always be an outsider. The thought of walking down the aisle alone is making me cry already and knowing that the new family i have doesnt like is just heartbreaking at the same awkward.I would really appreciate your advise on this matter.

Thank you for taking time to read

    This makes me so sad for you! I am sorry you are going through this. I truly hope once married his family will welcome you. Even if not though know you are not alone. You will be walking down the isle to meet your soul mate!

    This sounds like it could potentially be a cultural thing but I am so sorry you’re going through this. Could FH potentially talk to his family? My FH has a very similar family, in that they’re kind of cold and don’t go out of their way for me at all and it is so hard to handle. It’s especially hard when it sounds like your family is so great. I cant pretend to know what this feels like, but please remember that you’re happy and loved and you are married to the man of your dreams! Try to keep an open mind and just smile through it all.

    Hi DIANNE! I am sorry to hear you're going through this situation as well. Like Impatient Bride To Be said, I also hope his family does welcome you in, come your marriage. In the meantime, focussing on how you will be walking down the aisle toward your soul mate & your love for each other. Smiley heart

    Cultural thing it's possible it's funny the rest of the family like Uncles and Aunts are warm while the Immediate family is just I don't know how to explain how are they towards me. The husband knows how much I've tried to reach out to them. Kinda lost interest at this point coz the more I tried the more they step away. This would sound weird but knowing you have the same experience its comforting . thank you for replying
