My BIL is getting married in March and I am not attending the wedding. There is another family member getting married on the same day.
I have never met my SIL to be, but I was invited to her bridal shower. It is at a time that I could probably go and I will be close by that weekend. The only people I would know would be my other SIL( who I get along with) and my step MIL (who I haven't spoken to or seen in almost 2 years)
I have absolutely nothing against my BIL or his wife to be, I just don't want to be awkward or cause any drama. I can behave myself but not sure my SMIL can.
rere, SIL feels the same way I do, but they live a lot closer so harder to avoid. They eloped to avoid having to deal with her at their wedding.
My soon to be SIL and BIL can't afford to live on their own so SMIL pays for everything. They play nice with her because they can't survive without her. Plus she is also BIL's mom.
Just found out that SIL is not going either so I am definitely out.
I want to organize a dinner, but I have been holding back because they just had a miscarriage and my pregnancy was not planned. I was thinking of waiting until after baby or until they announce she is pregnant again. I know they are trying again.
xctsclrx, I wouldn't tie your dinner to her potential pregnancy. You could be waiting a while. It's nice to be conscientious about her feelings regarding her miscarriage, but I think that's probably a step more than necessary.

This. Does she know you're pregnant? I wouldn't show up to dinner without her knowing and surprise! I'm pregnant.
supertrooper1, She knows but hasn't acknowledged. We found out a month after they had the miscarriage, so I am guessing things are raw emotionally right now.
I think I am going to try and plan something for after the wedding. It is a only a few months away and I am sure they are busy.
