I was born and raised Catholic, but became Wiccan a few years ago. My fiance is Catholic, but neither of us wants a Catholic wedding. We've decided on a secular ceremony, neither Christian nor pagan.

Most of the people in my mom's family are Catholic extremists. They claim that because my fiance and I are both baptized, if we don't have a Catholic wedding then by Church doctrine they're not allowed to attend. (As you can imagine, this is creating a lot of heartache.) Is there any truth to this? If not, is there any evidence I can show them that might convince them otherwise?
