She was very rude.

OP, why don't you reply all something along the lines of:

"Thanks for the suggestion Cousin. Why don't we plan for brunch on Saturday at my house at 11:00 and whoever wants to see the Christmas village can head that way afterwards. We are happy to be the staging/meet up place. Anyone who wants to stay and relax at my house is welcome to, and everyone else can head out around xyz time. Can't wait to see everyone!"

She was rude as hell, but I think this is the best response.

I HATE IT when I invite people to a movie, and they say, "Oh, let's not go see that, let's go see this instead." Same with a restaurant. If you want to plan a group outing to a restaurant, do so, but don't try to hijack my outing!

Agreed.
