Buddies complaining about how I didn’t ask them to my Christmas party after they didn’t invite me to their wedding

I throw a pretty big Christmas party every year. A few years ago at one I threw my friend Tara met my former co-worker Tony and they also hit it off. They dated for some time, and two years later, once again at my Christmas party, the lady showed up with a ring on her behalf finger and they announced for the first time that they were engaged. I had been super happy for them.

These people got married this past spring. We didn' t get invited.

When I was sending close to invitations this year, I didn' t see any reason to invite them back again if they didn' t believe I wasn' t worthy of making their guest checklist. I have known them both for years, basically introduced all of them, and they literally announced their engagement at a party inside my home.

It got back in my opinion today that they' re very upset with me for not inviting them this year, that will my party is something they consider special and they also think I' m being petty. A couple friends talked about it was a smaller wedding and so they feel like I' m just punishing them.

It wasn' t though. I understood at least 50 people with that wedding, and I was obviously a little surprised at some from the names that made the particular cut over me. I actually didn' t make a stink about it or anything, yet I don' t see why I should welcome them in to my home again right after being snubbed like that.

Our partner thinks I should simply let it go and invite them back, but I don' t see a reason why I should.
