“This has never been true. My dad has always been there. He has never stepped out of my life or taken being my dad for granted.”
So when her stepdad recently asked her if he would have any father-of-the-bride duties at her wedding, she said no.
She explained that her dad is the actual father of the bride, so he’ll be there to do everything. Her stepdad then went off on a whole rant about the importance of the position in a wedding and how he expected to be just as if not more involved than her birth dad.
When she told him she didn’t feel comfortable giving him a role at her wedding, he told her she humiliated him.
Her mom found out and was equally upset. They told her she should be ashamed of herself for “putting blood before real family.”
Her stepdad asked if he could fulfill some of the duties alongside her birth dad but spoiled it by suggesting it would allow guests to see him as the man who raised her next to her biological father.
All the drama has reassured her that she does not want her stepdad involved in any aspects of her wedding other than being a guest.
Do you think she should find space for her stepdad in the ceremony or leave things the way they are with her birth dad?
