So to sum this up in the shortest way possible, I have a very difficult relationship with my family. I’ve never really gotten along with my father, have not spoken to my sister in years, and only really keep in close contact with my mother. When we began planning this wedding, I had decided to be the bigger person and not exclude anyone. I told my mom she could invite however many people she wanted to invite. From our entire extended family (14 aunts and uncles, 46 cousins, countless babies), she chose to invite 10 people. Out of those 10, I don’t think any are coming. My father goes back and forth daily on whether or not he will come, and I think it’s entirely possible my only family member there on the day will be my mother.
