Let it go.
This would have been it for me. I would have been irritated that DH picked his work thing over my parents 50th wedding anniversary, but I would make peace with it.
Why would you expect him to care at all about your parents 50th anniversary? Getting an oil change is probably more important to him than that.

She went with our 3 kids, her brother and his family, plus the in laws.
I had a work conflict when the cruise was booked. DW booked 2 rooms for her and the kids plus paid half of my in-laws’ suite.
My work conflict cleared 2 weeks before the cruise which I let my wife know immediately to see if I could join.
DW let me know before the cruise that there were no extra rooms and there wasn’t space to add me to one of the rooms. So I stayed home and went to work as usual and binge watched movies.
She just told me her brother got these really small rooms that only had space for 2 people apiece but the rooms she booked could have accommodated a 3rd person.
I’m left with the thought that my wife really did not want me to go. Odd to me because I usually spend all vacation time dealing with the kids. Money would not have been an issue either.
So does she hate me or is there another explanation?
