My fiance and I will be married in 5 months and are having serious difficulties with family (some of which I won't get into here). Some members of our families are not speaking to each other for various reasons, many reasons not known to us, and we are aware of the fact that their attendance of our wedding may be contingent on who else attends. We are worried that some will simply not rsvp and not show up, others will rsvp and show up, others will rsvp and find some excuse for not having shown up... basically, these family quarrels are promising to put a definate damper on our celebration of unity. Another worry of mine is that there will be a much greater attendance from my family than from his (my estimation is... maybe 5:1 or worse) which i know hurts him greatly.
What can I do to drive home the importance of this day, or at the least, lessen the pain of rejection that I know will follow the wedding? Please; saying that we should rejoice in who attends is far easier said than done.
