daughters wedding posponed

[Guest]

Some of you might remember earlier in the year I wanted to give my daughter a shower and her future mother-in-law had a fit over the date. She also told me that it was tacky for a family member to host the shower. She also talked her daughters out of standing up in her sons wedding.

Then the kids moved the wedding date. She did not like March date, it might snow (but all of their families were within 1 1/2 hrs from the wedding place). The kids didn’t have enough time to plan the wedding so they changed it to May 29.

I thought she would be happy. But the problem was she didn’t like my daughter. She is too young (21) she told me, still in collage.

Doesn’t drink, smoke or has ever done any of it and is an all round a good mature young lady. Her son of 27 is
still not done with collage and living at home with his parents.

One of the differences is our religion and his father thought of us as colt. The boy fried (now fiancee) had told my daughter from the beginning that he wouldn’t mind changing to her faith, since they didn’t practice theirs and we have been practicing it for over 70 years. He volunteered to take bible study with her and get baptized.

About a month or so ago he would come over and was distant with us. When we asked him if something was wrong, or if he was upset with us he repeatedly told us that all was OK. Then 2 1/2 weeks before the wedding my daughter tells us that he is not getting baptized and that he has some problems with a profit that we believe in.

When I asked her if he has been talking to anyone of a different faith she told me that his mom, and then i didn’t hear much of anything else she was telling me. my blood pressure must have gone through the
roof. i thought this woman has used her last straw to stop this wedding.

as with some other religions same goes with ours. the pastor can’t marry if there are 2 different faiths. So the wedding was postponed indefinitely.

The wedding dress is done, the hall, flowers, cake, invitation responses were all inn etc. But no wedding. My dad flew in from Europe for the wedding.

Her best friend had her plain tickets and is here visiting.

We both have been crying and upset over the whole thing. I feel that if it was Gods will she would have been getting married tomorrow. But I feel her pain and sadness of what should have happened.

I feel that he has distend himself a bit from her. Tomorrow he is going to spend 2 days at the cottage that was intended for their honeymoon, and is going alone. Didn’t think of inviting her to join him, not that I wanted her to go.

I am so sad I just felt I needed
to ask for help. How do I help her with the pain.
