I'm in sort of a predicament. My husband's adult son from a former marriage of his will be getting married in Spring 2022. He and his fiancee have already postponed the wedding date once, which was supposed to be this past April due to the ongoing pandemic. They have several wedding attendants on each of the bride's and groom's side, and I surmise it will be around 100+ people due to the bride having an extensive extended family and social circle. The wedding will be held indoors (both ceremony and reception). I work as a nurse practitioner, so I am wanting to be extra cautious and don't want to attend any large events. I suppose that the pandemic may be at a turning point by Spring 2022, but my husband wants to buy air tickets now. I'm not ready to make that decision. I would say I'm not extremely close to the bride nor do I feel comfortable approaching the groom about their safety plan. I have asked my husband to find this out from them. But if it turns out that it is a 100+ guest list, outdoor nuptials and reception, and not voluntary masking, I would be very wary of attending such an event. To complicate matters further, my MIL is indirectly pressuring me to be a dutiful wife to my husband and attend the event no matter what. How are some of you handling situations like this, particularly those of you in healthcare?
