Help! I've got a situation!
As I've mentioned, we're keeping our wedding uber-small. After the ceremony we are having a dinner with our immediate families (parents/siblings) and a few close friends...less than 40 people. We decided we weren't going to invite cousins, aunts and uncles and all that. We want to just share our day with the people we are closest with. Everyone was going along with that plan...until now.
We sent our invitations out this past week. Last night my parents called and insisted that I now invite my dad's two sisters. One of them I don't mind, but the other one I don't get along with at all. She never has a nice thing to say to me, and the last family function I saw her at she didn't even know who I was! When I corrected her about who I was, she actually made some rude remarks to me and to my mother.
I don't know what to do. My parents are saying that as a "matter of respect" I should invite them. But the thought of seeing my aunt's scowling face and hearing her unkind words on our wedding day actually made me cry last night.
Thoughts?
