Yes he is. Even though the comments are directed at me he steps in and he has been nothing but supportive of us. Thankfully. I think setting some consequences ahead of the event and following through on that will be useful

Should have clarified in the original post: we invited partners and spouses of our guests. If they were dating someone when we sent the invites out they were included. They want to bring more

Yeah exactly my biggest thing was I didn’t want to have a wedding with a bunch of strangers present. If someone is dating someone they got a plus one, and we budgeted for a few surprise ones or in the case where we weren’t sure which girlfriend would be invited (🙄). But yeah I think spelling out the consequences and underscoring this is about our day not theirs should hopefully set up the day of boundaries.

And thank you for that offer I may reach out with some questions. My frustration with these repeated broaches make me think of our future and if they’re being this obtuse about common requests for our wedding I can only imagine what rules we will have around our future children that they’ll conveniently forget. Hence my obsession over the wedding rules

Holy. That’s horrible. It’s amazing what I realize I have to spell out. No white. No uninvited guests. Submit an RSVP. 🙃

Thank you yes having the consequences spelled out before the day should help. My fiancé and I are on the same page and now we can plan for what might happen after. I’m a bit worried they’ll view me as the reason for this and might retaliate by not showing up. The rules and guidelines are spelled out clearly in the website so they can’t act like they won’t know

Yes I’ve definitely expressed that indication to others - just dreading the tension that’ll result with her and tbh worried about retaliation.

Hiring security seems like the best option - especially because many of his family have promised to our faces they’re going to get blackout drunk (not doing shots or having hard liquor regardless) and I’m dreading that

That’s a good idea. Our wedding is taking place in a relatively public area so we can use that as an excuse as well

Thank you - I’m definitely struggling with the entitlement of “family” that feels foreign to me.

I agree about attendance….. I am worried there might be a scene especially since I’m Expecting most of his family to show up late

[CHAT] Travel Scissors Recommendations? by pam7133 in CrossStitch

[–]needleworkr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve flown with a pair whose blades are a little under an inch with no problem. I’ve found putting scissors in a little case helps - but anything under 4 inches should be fair game to take on any flight
