Should the bride have honored my requests, both for the privacy of the website and the use of my daughter’s full name? Or did my divorcing her relative relieve her of that responsibility?
My daughter was recently part of a wedding party, acting as a flower girl for a relative of my ex-husband. My ex and I were still married when the bride asked for my permission for this, and I agreed.
I also asked the bride to use my daughter’s full, correct name anywhere it appeared; my ex-husband’s family and friends all began calling her “Mary” years ago, ignoring my requests to use her full name. The bride agreed. I asked my ex-husband about this, as he has made it clear that our daughter’s privacy is important to him. He said he knew nothing about the website, though he had been sent a password to access it. He offered to ask the bride, after her honeymoon, to make the site private and correct our daughter’s name. The privacy request, yes, she should have. The name change, no: If the rest of the family is using the short version, it will feel quarrelsome to insist.
