Question I am on very distant terms with my mother and father who are both divorced very nasty experience and feel it is right to give them their place at my wedding.
My mother has raised objections regarding being invited as she has never had another partner since, however, i did suggest inviting a friend to ease the problem.
My father has indicated that he and his new wife will not be in the same room as my mother ever again!!
So I either have one or the other or neither.
What would you suggest?
Answer I am sorry but I cannot answer this question for you. As a suggestion, you either need to try and convince them that this day is about YOU and not them and their drama. If they still don't see a way to be humane to each other then it might be better to not invite either of them for your own personal sanity.
