I was told to not invite my aunt to the wedding the other day.
My mom and grandmother said 'your uncle does not want her there, so you can't invite her!'
She is my aunt by marriage, but has always been very sweet and thoughtful with me- sending me little notes on facebook, remembering birthdays, sending christmas gifts- and this is 8 years after she and my uncle divorced.
My uncle, on the other hand, has done some jerkish things to me in the past, and only seems to remember me on christmas, kind of, because I always show up.
I already included her in a save-the-date, so feel it would be incredibly rude to leave her out- plus, I want her there.
My uncle's two daughters are bridesmaids, his youngest (from new marriage) is a flowergirl, and I love his new wife.
Apparently he threw a hissy fit over my aunt being invited- and I just don't know what to do.
I would like her there- and DEFINITELY don't want to be rude- but I know I'll get a ton of flack for inviting her- and the drama will be epically horrible.
Advice, please!
