this will be my second marriage, i have two children with my ex husband, we still get on really well and he gets on with my h2b. I am going to invite him to the church so he can see our boys as pageboys and to the evening reception so he is there at the end of the night to take tham home and i dont have to worry about phoning him to come and get them. But i dont know if i should invite him to the whole lot, we do get on really, and i would like him to come for the boys sake. Also we are only having a small top table and they wont be on there, our family is kind of close but generally only get together on family occassions, so the boys dont know the rest of the family that well, only my parents but they will be on the top table, my chief bridesmade will be on there to but she is my h2bs niece. so my boys who will be 11 and 9 on the day will have to sit with the other two pageboys, my brother and his girl who will be 8, i just thought it would be nice for them and make them at ease, but i dont know what everyone else would say. just wondered what your opinions on this would be, should i invite him to the whole lot or just the church and the evening reception. xx

I think as you get on great and you want him there I don't see a problem in it ;)
And can I just say I love the fact you get on and are so great to be able to have a good civil relationship with your ex husband ;) it's not usually like that
Don't worry what others think just worry wha you and your new hubby to b will think ;) if you want him there go for it ;) x x
CommentAuthorWeeMintyMonkie
If you get on and your h2b has no objections then why not. You have your reasons for him being there and would seem a shame to have him go somewhere else to eat to just return to the wedding. X x x

I think it's so great they get on so well ;) I am inviting an ex of mine to the wedding as we where friends before our four year relatioship and friends after ;) x

as long as you and your h2b are happy with it that is fine. make sure your ex is ok with it as well. he may feel uncomfy. i had an ex at my wedding as we are really good friends still and me and eddie and ed were fine about it. we are act
there is no way though me or ed would have felt comfy with ed's ex being at the wedding though
CommentAuthorVintageChic
I say considering the cirsumstances go for it, it makes your day easier and makes the boys more comfortable so I say do it x

Id have a long talk with your h2b if I were you. Its one thing gtting on, another thing having him at the wedding. If your H2B really doesnt mind then go for it.

CommentAuthorPB
I think its wonderfull for your children that you get on so well.If you and your h2b are happy with your ex-husbamd being there then do it x
CommentAuthorAnnette
If it's alright by the h2b then it's all good. Don't care what others might say, they should be admiring you two for getting on so well even though you've broken up! xx
Breathe in, breathe out...
CommentAuthordolphin
my other two pageboys are my h2bs children from a previous relationship,well one is his biologically and the other is his ex's from her previous relationship but he brings him up as his own, so she will probably come to as we all get on to. thanx for the advise people. xx

I agree with all the comments.. if your H2B is happy and doesnt mind then why not... x
CommentAuthorJules

Fortunately I don't get on or see my ex-husband (my 3 boys biological father), but I'm inviting his soon to be Ex-wife (my kids step-mom), because we get on really well, Suppose we've got a lot in common. So yeah defo invite them all xxx
I'm marrying the man of my dreams xx
CommentAuthorSweetchilli
I have invited my ex to my wedding. He's my 7 year olds Dad and he will be able to look after him throughout the day and take him home at night. I wasn't going to invite him but he got a bit upset and couldn't understand why I wouldn't invite him in the first place.
CommentAuthorleah
ooh definatly! espiecally if it means your not worrying about the children and enjoying the day. Your children will always remember how civil you were later in life which i think is a big thing as my parents have not seen each other for 14 years!! and i dread the thought of them being in the same room now lol Bugger everyone else, if you and your h2b dont have a prob neither should anyone else xx
CommentAuthordolphin
ive decided hes definatly coming. thanx everyone. x
