WIBTA if I cancelled our wedding?

A couple is facing significant family drama as they approach their wedding date. Engaged since April 2019 and initially planning a modest ceremony in September 2020, they have encountered a series of complications involving their families. The bride-to-be and her fiancé had originally agreed to keep the guest list small, inviting only close friends and family. However, the situation became contentious when they had to negotiate with his side of the family, which demanded more invitations, threatening to withhold financial support.

The bride’s family dynamics have also been a source of stress. Although she initially decided not to invite three of her four siblings, she agreed to include the one sibling with whom she has a minimal relationship. Recently, her mother’s falling out with the sibling they planned to invite led her to demand the inclusion of one of the estranged siblings, under threat of not attending the wedding if her demands are not met.

Feeling overwhelmed and disheartened by the ongoing conflicts and unable to enjoy the engagement, the couple is now considering canceling the wedding and opting to elope instead. They have already invested a considerable amount of money and effort into planning but are increasingly disillusioned by the constant family drama.

In summary, the couple’s journey towards their wedding has been marred by intense family disputes, leading them to contemplate eloping as a simpler and more peaceful alternative. They are seeking support and perspectives on whether canceling the wedding is the best course of action.
