Everything has been going wonderfully with the wedding so far and invites havebeen sent but now ive run into a big problem! My parents split 5 years ago after my dad left my mom for another woman...needless to say she hates h and basically his whole family.

Heres the problem...i was only inviting my dad and nanny from his family and only doe the ceremony, come to find out my aunt is expecting an invitation...i love her and im really close to her but i do not want to upset the reat of his family by not inviting them but letting her come.

I cant just say no to her, shes done so much for me and would be sooooo hurt!

What would you do??

    Honestly its yours and your FIs wedding. I think the two of you should invite who you want. I personally am only inviting the people I want there and anyone else can just get over themselves. Some times you just have to stand your ground.

    Honestly, despite the fact that your Dad left your Mom, they are still your family even though they are on "his" side.  Its your day...its all about you and your FI.  Your mom is going to have to understand and perhaps bite her tongue that day.  If you want your auntie there, the go ahead and invite her.

    My mother can't stand my daughter's other grandma (my ex's mother) but she is like a mother to me to this day, I still call her mom and she would do anything for my daughter and myself.  Well, guess what?  She's coming to my wedding and my mother just has to deal with it!

    Agree with PP's. This wedding is FI and yours. Your mom can't get over it for one day? If you want your dads family there on your special day, I would most definitely invite them. I am sure your mom will understand. Although!! Who is paying for the wedding? If your mom is, then maybe you can limit how many people from your dads side, but if you are, she definitely has no say. Good luck, do what u want.

    Do you want any of your dad's family at your wedding (ceremony and reception)?  If so, you should invite them.  If your mom is paying, yes she could limit number of people from his side, but she should really try and be an adult about it for a day and realize that you deserve to have people you care for there at your wedding (provided there wasn't any abuse).

    I agree with PPs.

    Also, is there a reason you're only inviting your dad to the ceremony? That might be hurtful to him.
