[quote=Anonymous]OP, there's some weird hater on here giving you a hard time- ignore that person.

Here's my advice, though-  you say you have siblings.  Is it possible to assign someone to deal with her?  That is, have someone who sits with her, who runs interference, who prevents her from getting to you?

Is she this way to your siblings?  Is she different with you?  Is this just how she is and for whatever reason your siblings cope with it in different ways?

I have no experienced anything like what you have posted, so take my advice for what it's worth.  But for your family, maybe having her there (with several people in charge of keeping her away from you) might be worth it.  tYes, she'd be in some pictures.  But you can tell the photographer ahead of time about the issues and a skilled photographer will work to make her feel included while actually excluding her from some photos.

I had a tough experience with my MIL before the wedding.  Several of my husband's friends knew, and simply ran interference whenever she was headed my way - they'd swoop in and take her to dance or distract her.  It was awesome of them.  [/quote]
