My side of the family was great, totally supportive and mellow. Bruce's biological mom, all three of his sisters and his step-mother were amazing.
You've read the stories of my maid-of-honor. However, HER mother was pissed at the ONE time I snapped at my mom, that Margy didn't end up with any one and that "no one noticed" when Margy "overheated and almost fainted" at the rehearsal. For the record, my mother was completely cool about everything and Margy was acting up for attention. In fact, I was invited to her sister's wedding to keep Margy from acting out.
The set of in-laws who hosted the shindig were all right but mom decided how she wanted my colors to look and how much alcohol we were going to serve (and proceeded to get drunk the day of... fortunately she's a happy drunk so it wasn't as bad as it could have been) and dad decided HE deserved to be best man (that now makes three guys who are pissed at Bruce because they thought they "deserved" it. One of the three brought it up last weekend and picked a fight with Bruce after getting drunk off his ass at 2 AM.) His biological father wore a tuxedo pouch thong thing under his kilt and proceeded to flash everyone- deliberately- during the reception. And he was sober.
