My parents dont like my fiance, should I invite them to the wedding

So im getting married next month and im not sure I want to bring my parents. My dad said that he WILL NOT Walk me down the isle. He doesnt like my feance because he smokes weed (he only does it every now and then not like religiously)so that automatically makes him a drugie. so my dad only sees him as that and doesnt try to see him in any other way. As a matter of fact my dad wishes I never met him at all. Getting off subject... What should I do about my parents? Should I suck it up and bring them or should I not invite them?

Send this to a friend

Dear sandydee,
Of course you invite them. But as you said they will not go so make other plans. Invite your father to walk you down the isle and leave it at that. Have a back up such as an uncle or friend who will walk you down the isle if he doesn't. Always take the mature road that way you will say at least I tried. Then leave it up to them to go or not. I understand it's a sad thing they won't be there but if in a few years when your dad sees this man is treating you very well...and has stopped smoking pot. You won't feel guilty for not offering. Take tons of pictures and send them to your dad if he doesn't go. He will cherish them even if he says he threw them away...older adults sometimes are not the best communicators and sometimes can't admit when they were wrong. So don't get angry but show him how mature you both can be.
Sue...good luck

Wow, your only 17-years-old and your already going down the isle? Eeeek!
I can see why they don't want anything to do with the wedding...

Life is choices that come with consequencies - sounds like your parents have every right to be very concerned over this choice.

Yes you should, but I'm 17 just like you and I wouldn't even think about getting married. Don't care how much I'm in love. I don't want to end up 20 with a kids and no baby daddy around. Good luck!!!

I will be 18 next month so I wont need a parent to sign me off. im not planning to have kids right off the bat. I want to wait 'til im done with college and have a stable job. and he knows that and agrees with me. we arent in a rush to have kids. we just want to get married.

Maybe you should wait until you're done college and have a stable job to get MARRIED. As much as we hate to admit it, 95% of the time, parents know what's best for us. You're not ready to get married yet if you don't realize that. Your dad only wants the most respectable guy and one who will treat you right..not blow smoke into your face.

As for your fiance, it doesn't sound like he's mature enough to get married if he thinks it's still cool to smoke weed all the time.

P.S. Who's paying for the wedding?

He does treat me right and is very mature and doesnt "blow smoke in my face". He is trying to stop smoking, though he has cut down a lot from when we first met. he has a great job being a nurses assisstant. He is responsiable We dont want a big wedding either, its just going to be our family and some close friends.

parents or fiance? thats the question...

either say to your parents, I'm inviting you to the wedding. If you want walk out my life don't come, but if you want be part of my life come and be happy for me.

or say to your fiance, stop the weed and prove to my dad your not the druggie he thinks you are.
