My sister is getting married & I am her Maid of Honor. She has been VERY difficult with everyone throughout the planning.
She is having a combined bachelor/ette party in Nashville, where bridal parties will stay in a shared house and vacation together, with the exception being Saturday night, when guys and girls will do their own thing. All sounds great, except she has decided that family members outside of bridal party are not invited, including significant others. My boyfriend and I have been together for a couple of years, live together, and regularly hang out with the bride and the groom. At this point, I am not comfortable attending (and paying for) a vacation that will be spent with the groom, several men I dont know and my brothers while excluding my boyfriend.
My family agrees that this is unacceptable and says I don't have to go to Nashville under these circumstances. If I wish her tons of fun and offer to still help plan, do I have the right to not attend?
