Today, my in-laws decided they were going to stay an extra week during our vacation to Dominican Republic next year. This would be fine, if we weren't travelling for our destination wedding, and the extra week wasn't our honeymoon. They are literally joining us on our honeymoon. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my fiancé suggested we bring his elderly mother with us on our honeymoon. FML
Today, my in-laws invited themselves to stay at my house for a few days. They live out of state and have been self-quarantining for months. The reason for visiting? So they can throw a party for extended family at our house. Guess who'll end up doing all the work and clean up? FML
Today, it's the first day of our honeymoon. My bride just informed me that she invited her ex-husband to come, so he can spend time with the kids. He will be here in 4 hours. FML
Today, I found out that I have to reschedule my upcoming honeymoon because my office will be understaffed that week, due to the boss going on vacation right after my wedding. Oh, yeah, and he's in my bridal party. FML
Today, I found out that my fiancé's parents are refusing to pay for a honeymoon, because they "didn't have one, so neither will we", meaning they won't pay for a single thing for our wedding. FML
Today, I was awakened by knocking on my door, only to find my parents standing there. Turns out, they booked two one-way tickets to visit me from another country. Their plan? I should scrap my upcoming 2-week vacation to hang out because they invested in this trip. Oh, and they didn't book a hotel. I'm 31. FML
Today, my fiancée decided to go on a "vacation." Our wedding is tomorrow. FML
Today, my husband and I are here on holiday in Rome, Italy. We both made chit-chat to an older couple who are staying at the same hotel as us. They've tried to spend everyday with us, even going to the same cafes and museums, where we are. We now try and avoid them; we end up hiding. We're here for another week. FML
Today, my boyfriend bought us plane tickets to Mexico for our "Honeymoon". This would be nice if he had proposed and if we'd been dating for longer than 2 weeks. FML
Today, two days into our honeymoon, my mother-in-law turned up at our Spa hotel and pretended it was a huge coincidence. We are an 8-hour flight away, yet she tried to claim she had a Spa coupon about to expire, from another country. Nice try Linda you nosy, interfering bitch. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

How about just telling them no? you gotta set the boundaries early on, or they'll just do as they please and never respect you.

Just copulate aggressively and loudly the first night and see if they still want to join you for the next six days.

Jesus Christ, grow some gonads and tell them no. It's really not very hard.

Oh the in-laws...can't seem to let go... The advantage of the Dominican Republic is that the island is cut in half...maybe Haiti would be just as nice..

tell them no. if you don't put your foot now, they are going to walk all over you for the rest of your marriage

You have to brick wall them. We believe in you!

I had an island destination wedding too. What we did was tell everyone that if they wanted to have a longer stay, that's fine but to do it at another resort. There usually enough separation in DR between properties that you are insulated from one another if someone stays. You could try this approach so they can still have a vacation and you can be alone on your honeymoon.

Just say no, OP. It isn't rude. They are invading your space! All they want is vacation time, obviously. Tell them to get lost, and enjoy the honeymoon like you deserve.

This should be a deal breaker. Next thing you know, they'll be moving into your house. If you allow it, you deserve it.
