[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. In response to 18:21, we did not miss the party hosts wedding! It was my husband's brothers wife's brother whose wedding we missed. [/quote]

Do you people honestly thing OP's husband's brothers wife's brother was really upset that OP and spouse were not there?  I'm not sure they were anchoring the head table or anything!  I'm sure folks will argue the expense or whatever but if the happy couple is inviting relatives by marriage 4 times removed, I don't think they're micromanaging the guest list.[/quote]

I think people are really missing the point here.  Once you RSVP yes, regardless of whose wedding it is, it's not okay not to go unless you have a true emergency.[/quote]

Fine. But for it to be such a big deal that it caused a huge fight between DH and his brother shows a serious lack of perspective and boundries on brother's part. Be sorry they missed it. Be disappointed. A fight?  Holding a grudge?  That's cray cray. And expecting the OP and DH to do penance by driving 7 hrs round trip for a two hour kids party?  With family like that who needs enemies. [/quote]
