what is their obligation? I am 29 years old, and am getting married in Mexico to my beautiful wife, we already had the civil wedding on April 8, 2005, where we got married on 1 weeks notice, my wifes 2 sisters who live in Los Angeles, went on such short notice, none of mine showed up. My siblings have known for over 6 months that the wedding will be in Mexico and on July 16, 2006, and none have made any effort or talked to me about attending. The only ones so far that will accompany me are my parents.
My mother has told me that they too feel hurt that I have never formally asked them to join me, I havent really sat down with them because I feel I dont have to tell them their invited, they are my siblings. Out of the five 3 can afford to go, the other 2 have financial problems and I understand them. I have never seen eye to eye with them and feel they are totally disrespecting this special occasion, I would have made every possible effort to attend their wedding. Should I feel this

If you want them at your wedding, of course you have to invite them! It doesn't matter if they are your siblings or not...people don't feel right about going to something like that if they weren't invited.

The most important persons on your wedding day are your wife and yourself - not your siblings, not even your parents nor anyone else. It's supposed to be the most joyous day of your life, after all. If others can share your joy, so much better, if not, it's their loss.
Forget about everything else and enjoy the moment because, hopefully, this moment only comes once in a life time.
It's YOUR day, don't let anything spoil it.
Congratulation.

Clear your head a bit and think....
How can they go if they have never been invited? What is it going to hurt to send them a note and ask them to come, giving them the details of the trip (such as hotel accomodations). If they are unsure whether you want them there or not, why would they go through the expense of being there?
Stop being stubborn and just put the invitation out there......
