[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the last two PP's are the OP sock-puppeting.[/quote]

I am a different poster, not the OP sock puppeting as Jeff can confirm (not that it's that deep for me).  You can talk about my religious/cultural differences all you want but the simple fact is that the OP is hurt by her omission from the invitation.  So clearly I am not the only one with these expectations.  [b]If my parents wanted their names on that card it would be there regardless of what they paid.  How much money and time and effort did they spend to raise their son?[/b]  [/quote]

The host of a celebration issues the invitation to the event.  If you are not paying for the event, by definition you are not the host.

The guests are not being invited to the "raising of the groom" but if they were, then sure, his parents would issue that invitation.  Not the case here, where they are being invited to the *wedding*.  Whoever is hosting the wedding, meaning, paying for the locale, the food and drink, decorations, etc., issues the invitation.  Others are, by definition, guests.

OP, you need to step back and re-think what you are expressing to your son and future DIL.  You are putting your relationships with their family, including future children, in jeopardy here.[/quote]
