I'm stumped. I know we don't *have* to invite anyone to our wedding, and anyone who has been downright abusive never has to be invited. But if you invite one part of a couple, etiquette dictates you must invite the other.
I I am in a bit of a predicament. My uncle married the mother of his children when I was little. I was their flower girl. They separated (but did NOT legally divorce) in 2007.
He he is now living with another woman, who has been not only abusive to my cousins but downright nasty to our family.
They claim he is divorced, but according to the government, divorce was never filed. They even had a "wedding" in Cuba, but have no legal marriage here in Canada.
Is there a way to only invite my uncle and not his new lady? I think my only option is to not invite him, for fear she will show up anyways. This sucks, because he will be the only uncle not invited.
