I've never posted on WW before, but I feel like I'm going crazy and I don't know what's right or wrong anymore. My sister is getting married 2 months after us in Disney World and we were planning on travelling from Toronto to FL for it. A few weeks ago she told me that due to monetary constraints...

I've never posted on WW before, but I feel like I'm going crazy and I don't know what's right or wrong anymore. My sister is getting married 2 months after us in Disney World and we were planning on travelling from Toronto to FL for it. A few weeks ago she told me that due to monetary constraints (which isn't the case as my parents are paying for the wedding), she is not inviting my new husband. I later found out that they decided to cut her fiances siblings and anyone outside our immediate family (which I guess doesn't include my husband) because they can only have 18 guests. All this is doesn't add up because they can have up to 18 guests, but have decided only to have 10. I eventually gave in and said I would go to the wedding. She then said they had 'alternate arrangements' made because I said I wasn't going. While my husband isn't invited, he was going to travel to FL with me as it's a bit of distance and uses up a good portion of my vacay time. more int he comments...

    I've skipped a few pages of posts for this thread, but Arianna, I sincerely hope that you do what makes you happy. Do yourself a favor, and confront your sister. It will suck, but you will be better off in the end. Simply tell her how you feel. Tell her, that while you love her, you feel very upset and uncomfortable going with out your husband. Put your foot down. Please, for all of us who are rooting for you. Show her this post if you must. My whole family has a "dislike" button for my sisters husband. He's a little odd, and socially inept, but he's invited. Whatever, he belongs to her. That's just the way it is.

    @Karen - thanks so much. I did have a good conversation today and I'm not going. Due to the issues surrounding this and her fiance's siblings not being invited, my brother has decided it's not the right thing for him to go. I feel good to have stood my ground, but at the same time can't help feeling a bit sorry for her. She really needs help......Smiley sad
