My wife and me have two kids. We, along with my two other brothers and two other sisters (and their families) were invited to my niece’s wedding (my sisters daughter). The wedding became a big competition to spend money.

A month or so before the wedding all of us were uninvited because (we were told) that the grooms parents wanted to have so many people in attendance from their side of the family and the cost to have us there was too much.

So I don’t know what to think or believe and I’m not upset about not going to a wedding but still being uninvited from your sisters kids wedding is disturbing.

There’s probably going to be problems in that marriage! Seems from what you said the priorities are not “family”

I married into a large family. I would be celebrating the money saved on gift and travel expenses 😉 I'm only half kidding. The local gift/home decor store has a loyalty rewards system in which you receive $20 gift card for every $250 spent. I received that reward three times over a few years and never once bought something for myself(no money for that!). I also never spent more than $30 on a gift.
