[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can they stay at a hotel? I don't know if that would help or not. It's hard to give an opinion w/o really knowing what it is but wouldn't itbe easier to have them there that weekend...you can put them to work or you can skip out on the visit altogether by being busy the whole time.[/quote]

+1.

I would say that while you would love them to be there for the event that that weekend will be a difficult time for you to host any houseguests.  You would love them to come and stay at the house any other time of their choosing or come to the event and stay elsewhere, but that you won't be able to provide any hospitality that weekend as you will be fully committed to the event on that weekend.  Then let them decide whether to come and stay in a hotel or plan to come visit another time (or both).

The last question is would you be willing to have them stay at your house if you didn't have to provide any hospitality for them?  e.g. they had to take care of themselves and fend for themselves?  This might give you that option.  They could come and stay at the house, but would be expected to rent a car for their own transportation, to make arrangements for their own meals and would see you and the family at the event or between jumping around to whatever needed to be done that weekend.[/quote]
