So I am spending the week with my fiancé and soon to be in laws and it's been hard... Very hard! His Father is contributing a large amount of money for our wedding and he told his son it's a "wedding present" use it for the wedding, use some of it for the honeymoon, whatever. Very sweet and generous man. We were thrilled! Well, ever since we have been here we have been getting comments from the stepmom and stepsister on how our wedding is too expensive ( it's not going to be cheap but its far from extravagant, just really nice) and no one expects people like "us" ( whatever the blank that even means) to be having such a nice wedding, my favorite horrible comment was directed at me, "isn't THE BRIDES Father supposed to pay?" which was especially unkind because I had thanked his Father for his contribution and said how sorry I was my Father was not still alive because I know he would have contributed as well and not to mention my Father passed away and won't even be at my wedding, then there was ALL the "suggestions" made about how the wedding should be, " I know they dO it differently in the states but WE hate sit down dinners and find them very uncouth", HUH? The whole week of nasty comments has been hard and it makes me miss my own sister so much who would have been appalled by the rudeness and would have just LOVED to go on and on with me about how awful they are, hehe. this just proves that just because you have money you do not have class... I truly have been shocked by some of the things they have been saying. Ok, thanks for listening... I am just laying low and trying to support DF and I am profoundly grateful that they live out of the country, lol. My Fiancé's other sisters are excited about the wedding and are lovely people so that helps! We are leaving here on Saturday so I am going to continue to support DF and focus on us spending time with his sweet Dad who is not doing so well which is why we are here. Ok, thanks for listening, just needed to share I guess. Has anyone experience something like this?
)). I do not like to complain its just been a borage of nasty lil comments to me about the wedding, me, my fiancé etc etc and all of this is coming from two incredibly difficult and snooty people.....I am not used to this kind of aggression and rudeness from people, thank goodness 
who knows--- people are funny in highly charged emotionally explosive situations. Just stay strong - and sounds like you'll have great people to rely on. I wish you all the best!
