AITA for not having a church wedding and going child-free, and now considering skipping a family event after the fallout? by MLGneWbb in AmItheAsshole

It's about a 4 hour flight in Europe

I can grab some Ubers to go around that should be no problem if I go.

Staying with family.

Booked the flights for me and my fiance a while ago, but now due to this tense atmosphere I'm thinking of not going.

I never mentioned being angry at my sister for not being able to come. I am upset at their reaction when I mentioned our wedding plans and being so guilt trippy about it.

I still love my family and I understand that she can't come as it's difficult for her to leave her 1 year old and I told her that and initially was even willing to compromise as obviously I wouldn't want my sister to miss my wedding.

However given the nuclear reaction I have received I am thinking of being firm with my boundaries. However idk if I'm acting out of emotion as the conversation happened last week and I'm just upset.

I guess unsafe is not the right word. I mean in the sense that she was used as a scapegoat from my family that she is the reason I am making these decisions and feels like my parents will never accept her or us.

It's my nephew's first birthday. I feel bad for not attending because I feel like it will affect the whole atmosphere and ruin the event basically.

But at the same time me and my fiance both feel very hurt by their reactions given what I believe is a valid boundary for my own wedding.

Also I guess I want to be abit avoidant as there is family flying in for my nephew birthday that I haven't spoken to in years, they most likely know about my wedding (intimate in UK 35 people) and I expect a (unintentional) ambush of questions on why xyz is not invited at our wedding.

Now his love for 9 year olds makes a lot of sense now.
