Family help: How do you feel about Godparents?

How do you feel about Godparents?

My godparents are my mom’s brother and his wife. They stopped talking to me when I turned 16. I’ve sent them Christmas cards every year, but never got any reply. Well, now I’m getting married. I’m not close to my mom’s side of the family, so I’m not inviting any of them to the wedding (they live very far away, and we’re having a small wedding anyway). Should I invite my godparents, simply because they are my godparents? is it wrong not to send them an invitation? I feel like if I invite them, I have to invite the whole side of the family so nobody’s offended. What should I do??

I think you should invite your mothers side of the family; if the are as far as you say and aren’t close to you than they will decided not to come themselves. But if you don’t invite them than you will be the one who was being wrong and rude. Make them be the rude ones for not coming rather than making yourself the rude one for not asking them to come.
