Ordering items that say “the smiths” when you don’t want to change your name
I’m pretty sure I do not want to change my last name and it’s making it hard for me to order things that say “The Smiths” on it or anything that has my fiancés last name on it. I always thought I’d have no problem changing my last name but my fiancés family makes me feel like an outsider, like I’m not one of them. Now that we’re getting married it’s a little bit better but I still feel like I don’t belong to the Smiths. I don’t want everything at my wedding to say the Smiths. Socially if people call me Mrs Smith I’m not going to care but the idea of everything being plastered with their last name makes me uncomfortable and I feel like it’s taking away from my excitement of wedding planning.
I know theirs options that don’t include a last name I guess I’m just bummed about my relationship with their family that is making me not want to have items that say The Smiths when I always thought I wouldn’t have an issue with changing my last name.
