    How about when your mother in law and father in law don't get along with you? That would be my world.

    I'm on the future mother-in-law's side. The rich British man took his poor girlfriend to Grand Canyon long before they were married. She wants a big wedding without her unemployed parents paying into it. She's a slob who feels entitled. Probably Labor. I'm with the Tory mother-in-law.

    What's wrong with saving money and eloping? Worked for me. Worked for my parents. Eloping just means that you go to a minister or Las Vegas wedding chapel and get it done and have no guests.

    She isn't a Tory. Tory's were British sympathizers during the Revolutionary War. She's just a good old fashioned English snob (like Ronan).

    The mom is pretty accurate with her points of concern. She is also a horrible person for presenting them in such a manner. The son/fiance needs to man up and tell his mom to back off, and also needs to tell his woman that much of her behavior was boorish.

    After reading that i'm appalled that the mother in law would send that, but if whats in that e-mail true the bride has some problems too. Sounds like both are kind of stuck up and I defiantly wouldn't want to be the groom in the middle of that.

    The mother-in-law is a hypocritical bitch. She pounds on the future bride for basically not being tactful (lacks manners) as a guest and not having common sense about the wedding. Yet here she, her son loves this woman and is ready to commit to her for the rest of his life, writes an email that will clearly divide famlies and put her own son in a position noone would ever want to be . . . basically creating a living nightmare for her own son.

    Very tactful there mom, you showed just as much common sense as someone wanting a wedding in a castle. Maybe your son should point this out to you in an email and have it posted on the internet.

    the lesson is, dont ever tell anyone your true feelings, because they are dumb, and everyone will make fun of you

    "Tory" is a nickname for a member of the Conservative party.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    The letter was hardly "soul-crushing" as the article alleges. It's certainly lacking in class. I don't think it's a huge deal, but it certainly doesn't get that relationship (wife/mother-in-law) off to a very good start.

    All fault falls on the rude old british hag for not only being a lousy host but also for stabbing her son in the back.

    If he's smart he uninvites her and has a blast at the wedding.
