My answer would be, “Young lady, you need to change that or I will be having a party for my friends at that venue I paid for, with food from the caterer I paid for, and the DJ will have to modify his playlist by a generation.”
The photographer will jut be cancelled. We will take the cake, though. I like cake.
My wife’s parents are divorced, and they have still managed to maintain that hatred for the 50 years since the divorce. When our oldest got married, we invited both of them. When her mom found out her dad was coming, she gave us the “him or me” ultimatum. Sorry you feel that way, but the invitations are what they are. We will post some photos online for you if you can’t ignore each other and/or be civil for a couple of hours.
We set the invitation list. The guests come or they don’t. (I’d be lying if I said we were heartbroken she couldn’t make it.)
Would it change it for you, if one of the step parents were responsible for the demise of the parents marriage/adultery.
“.. we will take the cake, though. I like cake..”
Hysterical! :)
