Do you think an on/off boyfriend should be invited to a family wedding?

Every time we see the family member, she tells us they are broken up or how much she dislikes him and wants to get rid of him. They are currently together but who knows what their status will be at time of wedding.

Do we need to invite this on off boyfriend?

Just have a consistent rule. Only serious SOs or engaged SO.

And I, I wouldn’t want to see his face. Everyone knows how it’s going to end, whether yesterday, next year or in a 15 year self implosion.

If its mother of the bride wouldn’t her daughter be having a candid conversation with her mom about if she wants to bring BF? In brides shoes I’d ask mom what she wants to do and, if she wants him to come then fine. This is a conversation between the bride and her mom and it should have nothing to do with OP

Just to keep the family peace I would invite the boyfriend.

Then leave it up to them whether or not he attends.
