[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The same thing happened for our wedding. We got married in my hometown, which was about an hour from where we lived. My husband's parents and siblings were there, along with several of his good friends. None of his aunts, uncles, cousins (his parents also had several siblings each).

The thing is, people have their own lives, and you can't necessarily expect them to drop everything and spend a fortune (and a bunch of leave time) to attend your wedding. It was a little hurtful for my husband, though, when the whole family traveled to his sister's wedding a few years later. Some of the family was close-ish to her wedding, but a bunch of then traveled farther than they would have for ours.

Again though, all you can do is invite the people you want to be with you and accept that some of them won't be able to make the journey - for a lot of different reasons. And never get into the mindfuck of judging whether their reasons were good enough. [/quote]

Thanks.  Needed that.  You are right.
