Upcoming Wedding

I have been divorced for over 6 years. My youngest daughter is getting married this June. I`ve been remarried for over 5 years, but my x is living with a man. She has put in the invitations her, her boyfriend and me and my wife request the presence at the marriage of THEIR daughter. She isn`t Their daughter, he`s not his daughter either by blood or marriage. I`m I wrong to want this changed?

I dont think so Eddie. I believe the proper way is to list you and your ex`s names seperately. For example, Mr. Eddie Smith and Ms. Jane Doe (your ex) request your presence. . . Married or not you two are her parents and thats whose names should be on the invitation. Just say, your ex and her boyfriend dont work out, your daughter wont want some man her mom used to date`s name on her wedding invitations when she looks back 10 years from now. You two will always be her parents. Hope this helps.

I think you need to call her out immediatly!!!! I am a woman and if my and my ex husbands child was getting married I would use our names. It doesn`t mean that we are together it just states that our child is getting married. Unless and I mean no disrespect, he has done more for her or been there for her longer than you have. Then I`d have to agree with her. Ask your daughter how she feels about the whole thing! Good luck
