Stepson v. Wife
by: Dandelion

In the context of the wedding, the emphasis being placed on your husband's attendance is not that he is your husband, but that he is the groom's father.

Presumably most of the guests will know he is not the husband of the groom's mother. If they pretend to be husband and wife, that would be problem, but presumably they are separated parents attending their child's nuptuals. The fact that these people have a child together and would like to celebrate an event in that child's life is not a slight on current spouses.

When wedding invitations are issued, they are normally issued to both halves of a couple. Perhaps your stepson cannot bring himself to do this for personal reasons. His desire for both parents to be in attendance speaks of his love for both of them.

I understand that it's difficult, but try to relax so your husband can attend his son's wedding.
