who says i have to invite ...

ALL my cousins?
What if my uncle has 5 kids, love my uncle, love his wife, love FOUR of his children. Do i have to invite the one i cant stand? (dont worry, no small children are being excluded, they are all well in there 20's & 30's) ... ugh so many formalities!

Tell me about it. I hate the 'you have to's.' I really don't HAVE to!!! What if I can't stand the person???

Sorry I think you have to bite the bullet on this one unless there is a MAJOR issue with the entire family (including your uncle) and that cousin.. otherwise if it's just that you don't like him/get along I think you have to just invite him/her.

I ask this all the time and feel the same way. I think if you invite one, you have to invite them all. Sorry, I'm no help!

Re: who says i have to invite ...

iam thinking of sending the invite with the RSVP already filled out with a NOT ATTENDING
maybe he wont show up. we've never gotten along, and i didnt go to his wedding because, i cant stand him. i told my father 'o well if the whole family doesnt come i can move onto my B list' ...

Yeah, I think you have to bite the bullet.

I have to invite my cousin that just got out of prison. That should be a crowd pleaser! hahahahah

FH has one of those. I have started telling my female guests not to leave there bags unattended. I told FH 'if something so much as looks out of place i promise you i will grab the mic and have one of the many detectives i invited pat his *** down' ... he would steal something with our names and try to sell it back to us!

ehhh I think unforrunately you might need to invite this one. I don't think youo can invite an entire family and not invite one of them.

I actually disagree with this one. I have family members (yes plural) who have just gotten out of jail and are not invited. I do not ever speak to them they have never met my fiance and I am not going to put the rest of my guests at risk for being robbed or even if they steal from the place to make me look bad and have to pay for it! I discussed it with my parents on the way they would like to handle it and my dad (his family) completely agreed and said he will take blame and say HE did not want them there if anything is said which i doubt they even care!

it depends, is you don't talk to them I wouldn't. Unfortunately I'm in the same boat, but my cousins a under 18, some 5years old. Don't know what to do yet.

Odds are this cousin feels the same way about you (sorry!!) and prob won't come anyway. I would send it for the formality of it...but I wouldn't expect a yes.
