Siblings not attending my wedding

Do they not want to travel because of Covid? If so I understand where they are coming from. But I get why you're sad. Can they zoom in on the wedding?

View Quoted Comment I agree with Yasmine's suggestion! Can they watch the ceremony on video chat? I'm sorry that they aren't able to attend in person! It unfortunately comes with having a COVID wedding that some people will not feel comfortable attending. I've seen posts from people whose wedding party, family members, close friends, etc. had to back out due to COVID. It's definitely disappointing, but by including them virtually, they'll still be able to celebrate with you.

View Quoted Comment One is Covid, the other because mask refusal on a plane due to a heart condition and airlines are making no exceptions and the 3rd her dog is old but doing well and doesn’t want to leave the dog.

View Quoted Comment Aww I'm sorry to hear that, Covid is changing and messing with so many things 😥 I know it's not the same as them physically being there but maybe you could facetime with them or talk to them on the phone before the ceremony

I'm so very sorry this is happening. I totally understand the disappointment. I'm currently pregnant and my husband hasn't been able to attend appointments with me and I haven't been able to see my family in months. Unfortunately, though this is what happens when you choose to get married or have a baby during the pandemic.

I'm so sorry, love. Thats a tough spot to be in. My FH and I opted out of siblings attending. We are only having our parents present

Yasmine has a great alternative for them attending. That’s going to be the next best option. My fiancé just asked what we’re going to do about the restrictions- we will proceed as usual but our guest list will be changed.

But the sorrow is there. Sure, they can see a 2 camera view of your ceremony, some consolation for them. But they are not there with you.
Be glad they are at least safe, and enjoys your friends, and maybe spend more te with hos relatives than you would, Also a good thing. 😟 But I am sorry, you will miss them.

Can’t blame them... as we are in a terrible pandemic. Hopefully they’ll watch virtually!

I'm sorry you are feeling hurt. I love my siblings but, due to the pandemic, I wouldn't travel for one of their weddings either. I would be sad; they would be sad. But each of us would have to live with our choices.

I'm sorry. This is a hard time. I hope they can watch your wedding virtually.

I really feel for you but the situation is just awful. I feel like there is no winning with Covid.

I think the best you can do is respect their decision not to come (its for safety reasons after all) and make the most of your day with your partner. Weddings are really about the couple - everyone else is extraneous. Make the day about the two of you and your love as best you can.
