Worried about fiance's family objecting/causing a raucous during the ceremony.

I know this website caters to mostly people about to be married (like me), but has anyone ever had or experienced this happen to someone else where they had someone actually stand-up and object to the couple getting married during the wedding ceremony?

I ask this because I'm already having nightmares about this happening to me. My fiancé was raised by his great grandma who is 94, and strongly dislikes me. She's extremely old-fashioned and a racist (I'm Hispanic and my fiancé is White). Additionally, my fiancé's grandmother (his great grandmother's eldest daughter) is crazy. Literally. No one else in the family gets along with her, not even her siblings.

His great grandma wants me to invite this woman to our wedding, and I'm worried that if I do, she will literally stand-up and object to us getting married. She's so crazy that I am sure she would do this. I'm worried his great grandma will do the same (after all, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree). The nightmares I'm having about this happening keep coming.

I'm tired of stressing over this. And I don't have an option but to invite both his great grandma and grandma because it'll look really bad to the rest of his family if I don't (since the great grandma is the matriarch of the family, etc.). If I could I wouldn't invite either of them to our wedding.

Has a similar experience ever happened to you or someone you know?
