Getting married in 5 weeks Grin all good. Husband to be asked to invite his cousin (that I have never even met in 6yrs) and kids. Of which he had 5. I though there was 4 and that too were actually 'children' turns out they are all adults 26plus do charged full adult meal price (â?¬55pp). I should have double checked the ages before he sent the invite but I didn't.

Anyway cousin RDVPS that he his 5 adult children and his 'partner' would be delighted to come. We didn't even know he had a partner. And she certainly was not named in the invite.

Now he had just rang and asked could partners children (14& 16 do again adult prices) come too and husband to be said yes!

Oh my fucking god just worked out it's going to cost �495 just to feed them never mind wine extra canapés & evening buffet....

Is this beyond a joke it AIBU?

Maybe the cousin thinks that you are made of money.

After all, you invited him plus his 5 kids, when you've never even met him.

So you must be having a "big wedding", and a couple more won't hurt.

Luckily we received word today that 2 2 of the 5 originally invited cousins can't make it! Dhtb is goin to call back and politely revoke the request to have the partners 2 children. He is goin to say that he messed up the numbers & the venue can't accommodate but that they can come to the afters. Very relieved Grin
