Esther is continuing to take over the wedding preparations. She told Ethan that she wants Leyna to cut back her guest list even though it’s her wedding. Esther wants to invite 40 more of her friends. She thinks Leyna should be the one to compromise since she’s paying for the wedding.

“We’re at full capacity with our guest list,” says Esther. “I have like 20 friends from tennis, and I had 20 friends throw her shower. You can’t have people throw her shower and not have them at the wedding. They entertained for her.”

Ethan thinks it’s OK for his mother to have a say over the guest list because she’s paying for everything. He told his brother that he will do whatever his mother wants him to do.

Ethan talks to Leyna about cutting the guest list

Ethan isn’t looking forward to talking to Leyna about trimming the guest list, but it’s something his mother wants him to do. Ethan does it because he enjoys making his mother happy.

Leyna was upset when Ethan told her Esther wants her to cut her guest list. He told her that guests are being cut on both sides, but that doesn’t seem like the truth. During his conversation with his mother, she only spoke about cutting Leyna’s guests.

According to Leyna, Esther has 80 people on her guest list, Esther’s husband has 50, and Leyna just has 75. Esther still wants her to cut the list even though it’s her wedding and she has the least amount of people.

Leyna says this situation is “pushing her over the edge” and she’s upset Ethan didn’t stand up for her. Says Leyna, “I want to talk to Esther because I’m worried that it’s going to be two against one for the rest of my life and I think I need to stand up for myself.”

At the end of the episode, we learn that Leyna and Ethan postponed their wedding. We’re not sure if they’re going to make it.
