Wedding

Quote From: la1219

My only brother is getting married in August but the only person in my family that is going to be in the wedding (besides my brother ) is my six year old neice. His finacee hasn't asked me or my sister if we even wanted to be in the wedding and I don't want to say anything because I don't want to cause trouble. Should my brother's finacee had at least asked me and my sister if we wanted to be in the wedding?
If she didn't ask, its not your place to ask why. There could be many reasons- perhaps they want to keep the wedding party to a certain size; perhaps the bride to be doesn't feel close enough to you or your sister yet to ask you to be in the wedding, the list could go on and on. Don't take it personally, and don't allow this to keep you from creating a healthy relationship with your soon to be sister in law. There are some people who feel they should involve family in their wedding, and there are others who don't feel that way. Personally, I had my closest friends be in my wedding, not my future sister in laws because I simply didn't know them that well.
