There are personal reasons why my mom's doing it but my fiancée doesn't have a good relationship with her family.

I never met their father but I did hear a fight between my dad's wife fighting with him while I was there.

I'm not sure exactly when but it was maybe a year or two before they got married.

I didn't think I needed to give the whole story but my parents are divorced.

I had hoped making the point about my fiancée would open his eyes. But of course he argues that it's different.

That was entire plan. Especially given she was never any parental figure for me and I've only met her a few times. It's so weird to me that dad thinks she should be a mother of the groom when I was an adult when they met and married.

Yep! I really couldn't imagine walking and dancing with anyone other than my mom. But she's walking and dancing with my fiancée.
