I’m Jeana (32F) and at my engagement dinner my wife Zoé (34F) made a toast to new beginnings. Everyone happily clinked drinks except Zoé’s father. He just sat there with has arms crossed staring daggers at me. I looked at Zoé but she was to busy talking to her brother. 20mins into the dinner I over hear a conversation at the end of the table where we sat the older people like our parents and grandparents. I heard my mother say “Excuse me?” Then I heard Zoé’s father say “It just isn’t natural”. I asked what was going on and the whole end of the table got silent. Zoé’s father said that he was happy for us but he doesn’t like that I’m a girl. I asked him what did he mean by that and he told me our whole engagement was a joke. He actually started to look around for some type of back up. I laughed and told him if he felt that way not to come to the wedding. He got very upset and told me I can’t tell him what to do and he is going to go anyways. I put my foot down and said no your not. For years I had to sit and listen to him talk down on me and Zoé’s relationship but this time I wasn’t letting it happen. But now I regret it because after the party Zoé’s mother told me that her family isn’t attending the wedding because I told Her husband he couldn’t come. Now Zoé is extremely upset and has been crying since we got home AITA for uninviting him?
