cabbageweevil, glad to hear things went well, and that Ivan
accepted the situation. To me, unless family members are really
awful, you accept them.

I would decide how close I am to my nephew's girlfriend and
decide if I wanted to attend.
The only choices are "I am sorry I cannot make that"
or "I would be delighted to come"
Saying "can't believe you are not paying for this" is not an
option.

Thanks ! I agree with your second sentence: "our lot" are a
very long way from really awful.
Ivan has started talking about a retaliatory invitation for them
to come to a restaurant with us, with them all paying for their
own meals; but I think he's joking...

If he does, just remind him that, as mentioned previously, if he
calls that an "invitation", he will be blatantly in the wrong!
