Not to invite my sister's boyfriend to my wedding

Hi. First time ever posting!
I love my sister. We are close and live in the same town! She is with her partner 4 years. Roughly same time as I am with mine. I cannot stand her boyfriend. Nor can my partner. He is exceptionally rude and ignorant towards us. He isn't particularly nice to my sister either. But she just doesn't see it. I have often had private conversations with her, pointing out different things that were offensive. Or behaviour towards her even that I didn't like or think was fair. She deserves so much more but for some reason she just doesn't see it. All my family are on the same page as me. We don't like him. I recently got engaged and I am actually dreading him coming to my wedding, being loud and obnoxious. Making it all about himself or he'll behave like a spoilt child and sulk.

Can I invite my sister and not have him at the wedding?

Not inviting him will be the quickest way to make you wedding all about him. Choose a drama free life and invite him.

Probably not without really hurting your sister.

Well you can but she may not come and it will cause upset, so if you are ok with that then go ahead.

It's going to be messy, but yes you can leave him off the guest list.
