[quote=Anonymous]op, agree that you have a good emotional handle on this. I just want to underline that what this really exposes is your nephew's role within his own family. Please do what you can to make him feel included in your wedding--events earlier in the week or later, something. These events are important to families because of the symbolism of people being there or not, and because of a mistake the symbolism will be disrupted--so do what you can to counteract that by creating other symbols whereby nephew can know how important he is to you and that you accept whatever decision he makes. signed, child of a stepfamily who has been on all sides of this wedding-as-symbol-of-where-you-are-in-the-family game.[/quote]
