I'm sure your uncle will understand and after all the ceremony is the most important part which you will be attending. One thing I would do is try and speak with your uncle or the bride today asap as they probably have to had their numbers in and usually whether a person turns up or not you are charged for that meal which is expensive. Your uncle may still have time to phone where his reception is and inform them there will be one less. Also I think if you explain at the interview why you are in this attire they will be very impressed with the efforts you have made to attend the interview,especially being a close family member being married. Enjoy the wedding and really hope you get the job.

Absolutely, you are not missing very much of the day, and you are attending the most important part the ceremony. There are lots of hard decisions to make in life, and sometimes you may feel stuck, but you ALWAYS have to look at the long-term. Is this going to destroy all harmony in the family... my guess is no. Will a job lead to a positive long term effect for you.. yes unless its turning tricks or selling drugs. Go to the interview, do your best and then have a wedding reception to keep your mind off waiting for a call back!

Personally i think your family will be understanding. They will know that getting the job is important to you and that you may not get a second chance. Explain to them and go for the interview and the evening part of the wedding is the best anyway. Good luck to you and enjoy the wedding as well.:)))

If you are honest with your uncle I'm sure he'll understand, see him married get on the photos then go to the interview and return for the evening celebrations.
Good Luck with the interview

If you really want the job go for it, and I am pretty sure the people dealing with the wedding will understand as long as you tell them right away. but go to the interview, or you can loose that job to someone else. good luck.

Go to the job interview , would you be able to make the wedding meal after the ceremony ? You will still be able to party all night and with any luck it can be a joint celebration , celebrating your new job ..
Best Of Luck xx

Go to the interview... A job is more important than a wedding...

Go to the interview - keep your wedding gear on with the buttonhole in your lapel and they will be impressed you want the job so badly that you came out of your Uncle's wedding for it.
Good luck!

Just talk to them about it. They will understand. I would think it would be worse to come for the meal then run off straight after. The main thing is you'll be there for the ceremony but won't be taking the P by eating and running and not coming back, and you're letting them know which is really considerate and respectful.

Of course you go to the interview... but if the RSVP date has already passed, I would pay for my breakfast....say $20 in a card that says so sorry I missed the breakfast, hope this covers the cost...I will keep you posted on the outcome of my interview.
