Planning A Wedding In 6 Months

Why doesn’t my fiancé want his family at our wedding?
We started planning our wedding 6 months ago & have put things on hold as I am very likely going to be made redundant soon. We are also trying to start a family. However, in conversation recently, my fiancé has said he just wants his parents there not any of his siblings / their families. They are a close family (he’s one if 6) and it is not about money becausebhe still wants me to have my family & friends there. I’m questioning whether he’s ashamed of me, yet he really wants to start a family with me. I just don’t get it! If hardly anyone is there on his side yet loads on mine, I will feel awful.
I know someone in a very similar situation…and her fiance didn’t want part of his family there either. Hmm, If I were in his positions these are some reason why I would say something like that:
1. They were very mean & cruel to him growing up..and they haven’t said sorry so he still felt bitter towards them. Why would he want people who treat him poorly to be a part of the biggest/ happiest day of your lives.
2. They have expressed to him they don’t like you. In which case maybe your fiance is trying to protect you. It’s your special day as a couple & he probably doesn’t want you to receive any dirty looks or have anything happen to you that would make you feel uncomfortable.
3. They don’t support you as a couple. I mean it’s your wedding, you only want people there who are genuinely happy for BOTH of you.
4. He has a lot of bad things in the past & he wants you not to know about them. He’s trying really hard for you to avoid his siblings who might tell you something. Especially if you are serving alcohol at the wedding…people can get really sloppy after a few drinks & just let secrets slip out.
This is YOUR wedding, he is most likely weeding out the people who are mean, rude, cruel, or just plain don’t support the future union between the two of you. This is supposed to be the happiest, most enjoyable day for you both, maybe he’s just trying to make sure this happens by getting rid of all potential drama.
I hope my answer helped you. I would suggest flat out asking him why…even though I gave a lot of suggestions, only he would know the real answer.
Also don’t think he doesn’t want them there because he’s ashamed of you….silly!!! He asked for your hand in marriage!! Of course he loves you & is proud to be with you! So much so that he wants to make you his WIFE. And Start a family with YOU. Don’t even think about him being embarrassed about you again…it’s not true. Besides, men mostly want approval from their parents over siblings…he wants his parents there, so he is proud to show you off. A man wouldn’t marry a woman & try to start a family with a woman he isn’t proud of & into.
If he didn’t want to be with you he would leave you…it’s as simple as that. But that’s not the case here…not only is he NOT leaving you, he wants to MARRY you!!!
Just enjoy planning your wedding together, this is an exciting time with your future husband. Have fun!!
