YT 1000 Club Member | Your daughter looks so beautiful in the picture! It's all done and over now and probably not allot you can do now exept hope that your new son-in-law doesn't think your aways there to foot a bill. My daughter was supposed to get married last October. Luckily in the month of June she had big second thoughts and came to us crying and upset that she coudn't go through with it. With the family that guy has we were relieved. He was becoming quite controlling of her and I'm so glad she saw the light. We now have her whole wedding attire. I'm having it preserved for the day she finds the right guy. We lost allot of deposit money but figured it was probably nothing compared to what it would have been to get her out of a messy divorce sitution. DD's ex's family was good at adding to the list of invites and never offered up anything. We knew we'd end up paying for ALL of it. Just hope now that your daughter will be happy and know in your heart that you did all of this for her and no one else. You wanted her day to be special and that's why even though you were upset you did it anyway. Look to happier days and keep peace for the sake of your daughter and any future grandbabies. That's what's important, not the money. It's sad the way it worked out and I don't blame you for being upset. You can come here and vent if you need to. Wishing you peace of mind from here on out!

| No I didn't say a word just sucked it up. I wasn't going to upset her day. I would never do that.I will always be there for her and she knows that. I forgot to mention the DJ we hired ,he didn't play any of the songs my daughter wanted and the dad daughter dance the song we picked out two years ago he did not have that song either so we didn't get to dance to that. It will be ok in time. I am blessed with three beautiful children. I have my oldest daughter getting married in three weeks so I have that one to look forward to. When I got home one thing I knew my little brown eyed buddy Pocket was there looking at me. I spent time with him, he always puts me in a better mood.

| Ughhhhhhhhh...I would be so far beyond angry as well. Actually, my in-laws did pretty much the same thing 15 years ago...on a slightly smaller scale though. My family isn't affluent by any means, my mom pretty much raised myself and my brother alone as my dad passed when I was 11. She spent every last penny she could to make sure I had a nice wedding. I wanted small as BIG is not my style. Anyway, my mother-in-law pretty much demanded all 5 of her children be in the wedding in some way. We ended up having to pay for their tuxes and to have the girls' dresses made. And to top it off, they didn't do a d@^^n thing for the rehearsal dinner...my brother and his wife paid for everything. If it weren't for my family (and the fact I had 2 jobs while in college to help pay), we would have probably have had to go to the JOP. I was appalled at my future in-laws lack of responsibility and respect but am so thankful to have a family that went out of their way to make sure my day was special. I am sure your daughter feels the same... you are a wonderful dad and a class act not to have blown your top when all this was taking place. Most importantly, your daughter was gorgeous...I am sure she will never forget all that YOU did to make her wedding day so very special. HUGS!!

| Wedding Yes........you should be very disappointed Congratulations, your daughter is beautiful and looked very happy. This groom's family was rude, and sneaky. Parents should want to share in their son's wedding day, if they couldn't afford to pay their share there would be no shame in them telling you before the event. The shame is dumping it on you and your family with little or no warning after it is too late. . Hope the other daughter's wedding was better!
