"it's complicated. i have four parents, she has two that are divorced and don't even speak to each other..."
My parents hadn't spoke to each other in over 10 years. At my sisters 1st wedding they both went with their new spouses. There wasn't assigned seating and the only place for my mom to sit was at my dads table, He bit the bullet and invited them over to sit with them. I'm sure it was hard but now another 10 years have passed and they all go out to eat with each other and spend holidays together with their grandchildren. They even retired to the same city to make it easier for us to travel and see them. It's not like they're best friends but they tolerate each other for the sake of their children and grandchildren. Hopefully your family will have the same luck.
