I sent her a nice card, but no reply. Any other ideas of what I could do?

Old people are a little bit sensitive. You should give her more than a card. Maybe a visit or two might make her change her mind. I would advise you to visit her alone first. Then bring your spouse. Your spouse should be nice to her too. No matter how fake or insincere. If your grandmother's approval means a lot to you, you should go an entra mile.

Let her stew. I don't know how old she is, but some of the old ones get pretty selfish, actually I would say most of the older people do. You've done nothing wrong, and if she can't accept your husband, then let her be. There's not much you can do otherwise, I know I have a mother in-law like that. If you're quiet, she'll start thinking, sometimes reversed psychology helps, sometimes not.
Good Luck

Give a chance, just listen to her points of view,This will make her come down and comfortable. Then discuss each point and tell her how you feel happy and list good things and your reason about this marriage
I think , she a grandmother still living as her generation, she like you and wanted to play any role in your life.

If you love the one you married you will not let her upset you too much. I would continue to keep in touch with her even if right now she does not approve . Maybe when she sees that the marriage is a solid one she will accept it. But I would not worry about it do not let it effect your happiness in your marrage just let her know that you still love her even if she does not approve

If you already tell her everything bout the love that you fent with that man,maybe she will understand but if not just stick with what you feel, after all your the one who will live with that man forever not your grandmother!the point is,you should be happy and never lose anyone.

I know you probably love your Grandmother, but if she doesn't like who you married, that is HER problem. She is still your grandmother and shouldn't treat you that way. Let her come to you.

I say call her up and tell her that you are sorry that she is very closed-minded to whom you love. But you will love him regardless of how she feels. And that you will still love her too, but you'll just stop coming around if she continues to be that way. Also beyond that you can't change her mind because she has already closed her mind to him.

Tell her t\how much the guy makes you happy and why you fell in lve with him...see they don't understand why we grow up and make our own decisions....but if you told her why you love him and you are marring him she should understand and accept it as your Grandmother...I know it is hard for her to comprehend it but sooner or later she has to accept it because he is apart of your life too.....

for whatever reasons you didnt say just continue trying to include her in your life dont beg her but if you guys take photos or have things going on like events invite her if she doesnt participate at least you will know that you tried to make your relationship better, thats all you can do right.
