Pricey Annie: Ought to we simply let this go? My spouse and I have been invited to my solely sibling’s son’s wedding ceremony in August. We didn’t attend. For background: My solely sister and I’ve lived our complete lives inside minutes of one another. Three years in the past, I retired and moved throughout the state, 240 miles away from her and her household. We have been all the time shut throughout these instances, having fun with household occasions and celebrations.
My nephew’s wedding ceremony ceremony was on a Sunday night, with a pre-celebration slated for Saturday night. Each have been at an out of doors venue (a park). To attend the weekend meant that we’d’ve both pushed 5 hours or flown. And because the invitation specified, there have been rustic cabins to “camp” in for the weekend, or we might’ve discovered our personal lodging. This was my nephew’s second marriage, and he and his now spouse have lived collectively for at the least 5 years and had a baby shortly earlier than the marriage.
