I know we are suppose to buy a gift for his parents, but I am having a hard time doing that when they have not done anything to recieve a thank you for besides buying a few things for us from our registery. Just like your parents, my mom/dad keep buying us wedding gifts along with paying for the wedding. |
I'm really sorry you're having to go through this. Did his parents' say their excuse for not paying for their additional guests is that the bride's parents are supposed to pay for it? Tell your fiance that HIS parents are supposed to pay for the Rehearsal Dinner and Honeymoon! They can't just get off scott free!
If I were you, I would NOT put his parents' names on the invitation. I would not. AND I wouldn't buy them a present. I would give your parents a present in private.
