wwyd - wedding related

My dh and I just got an invitation to my cousins wedding in may. My sister and brother however did not get invited.  Apparently the bride and groom decided that they would only invite the oldest of the cousins in each family. For some reason I got invited even though my sister is the oldest. Basically it sounds really disorganized and no one seems to know what is going on. Anyways, do you think we should go to the wedding? Should I let them know my sister is the one who "should have" gotten invited?  This is so messed up. Thanks for any suggestions.

  • Well, if you want to go I say go.  But I would not tell them your sister should have been invited - maybe they knew she was the oldest and wanted to invite you instead!?

  • IMHO- that is the tackiest thing for deciding invites!  They should have either invited all the cousins, or none.  I would maybe bring it up to your cousin that you are not the oldest, and see how they want to handle it.
  • That is really tacky!  Family is family, oldest or not and they should invite everyone, or no one at all.  I don't know if I would go or not!  Depends how close I was with them I guess.
  • Is it possible they felt closer to you than they do your sister?
  • It's their wedding, they get to decide who is invited and who is not.

    You only have the choice to go or not to go.

  • Thanks for your opinions ladies. The more I think about this, the more irritated I become. Both my sister and I invited all the cousins to our weddings (my mom has 11 brothers and sisters so that makes alot of cousins) so they should as well.  Family is family, crazy big as it is.

    Same here.?

  • The only decision I can see is whether or not you want to go.  You have no control over whom else is invited.
  • Can you give your invite to your sister instead (if you didn't want to go)? It that wrong???

     True, but still kinda hurtful to pick some family members over others.  I think its all or nothing personally.  Are you close enough to her to discuss the situation?  Its just such a weird circumstance!
