Pretty much any family that is alive and in the US is super important. Family to me means people who love you unconditionally. Friends come and go but family is forever. It probably makes it easier for me that I don't have a large extended family, especially in the US. I'm assuming we're talking about family members that you see regularly when it's someone's birthday or wedding anniversary or anything like that. If it's a family member you don't see more often than once a year, then yeah they don't have to be invited to the wedding.
For my wedding I would want the x many people I like most in the world there, not someone I don't overly like but am related to by an accident of birth.

If you don't want drama, don't invite family. Seriously, listen to the voice of experience here.

How can you *not* invite family? Family is all that matters. *NM*

That entirely depends on how you define family.

In your opinion. For me, as an example, it is the people I care for and respect that matter.
