I got married last year, sister didn't attend, sent text at last minute as "too much on", also didn't show to another family event later that year - posted the whole story here www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/1447557-to-think-my-sister-should-let-me-know-if-shes-coming-to-my-wedding-or-not?pg=1
Anyway, so today out of the blue both myself and my brother have received a wedding invitation for her wedding, which is taking place in 5 weeks. Although she is engaged, she has never mentioned a wedding despite being in fairly regular text contact (yesterday in fact) and this has taken us by surprise.
Am I being unreasonable to think if she really wanted me to attend she could have mentioned the date before sending out an invite? I feel particularly hurt at knowing nothing about a wedding until today. The invitation is very impersonal and just quite tersely demands an RSVP by 12 Feb (ironic given the subject of my previous thread). Neither of my children are mentioned on the invite so assume not invited - my youngest is 7 months, not sure where she thinks i could leave her - also 5 weeks is not much time to arrange time off work - she is 250 miles away and wedding is 11am on a weekday. She doesn't really want us to go does she?
I should add I last went to visit her in November...
