I never do this but I need some objective advice. My wife is 5mo pregnant and my sister is getting married. Wedding was adjusted because of COVID but she set the date knowing I might not be able to attend as I’d have to fly there.

Would be stressful for her but I’m getting immense pressure from my parents to attend the wedding. Advice?
