Dear Queenie,
My sister got married without a big ceremony because of the pandemic. Now she wants to make a party to celebrate her marriage and she is planning it for the same day as my wedding anniversary. The problem is I am planning to have a party on that day to celebrate my anniversary.
Queenie, what should I say to her?—Conflicted
Dear Conflicted,
Would it be possible to combine the two events? That way, you will not miss your sister’s party and none of the mutual invitees will have to decide which event to attend.
If that is not possible, talk it over with your sister and see if one of you can change the date of their party.
