my cousin is getting married next year. they are on a tight budget so numbers have to be kept down. we have a huge family never mind his fiancee's family so he has said that cousins aren't invited except for a few. i was close with cousin growing up and i along with my dcs have been invited, my parents have also been invited but my sister hasn't (i only have 1 sibling). i understand that he is on a budget, i really do but this means my sister will be the only one not going. to make matters worse, the wedding is in england (we all live in NI- cousin moved away as a child with his mum) so we will all be flying off for the weekend, so Dsis can't even come along to the evening part.
now here's the bit i feel realy bad about. Dcousin hasn't actually explained that my dsis isn't invited so right now she and my parents think she is invited. i know she isn't invited bcause he told one of my other aunts and her DD (who is my best friend) told me. mum has recevieved a 'save the date' card and mentioned that Dsis's name isn't on it. i told her she would need to check with Dcousin what was happening because i dont want to say the wrong thing and start a row. it is better for them to speak to Dcousin about it isn't it?
i feel bad that she wont be coming. most of the cousins aren't coming but she is the only one whose whole family are going. i love my cousin and i dont want to miss his wedding,i want to be there for him but this is like a bit of a cloud hanging over it for me.
