My sister is getting married and she wants me to go to her wedding! I'd forgotten all about it until she sent me a text last night. Weddings are the worst. There's so much noise and way too many people, half of which I wouldn't even know! And I'm not a dress wearing girl, more of a wear my jumper and jeans and stay in my room kinda girl.
How am I going to get out of this? It's the middle of February and I can't go. I get car sick. People freak me out. I have panic attacks and meltdowns.
I can understand why your sister would like you to be at her wedding, but I can also understand your reasons for not wanting to attend.
HP35's suggestion of a polite reply declining the invitation seems a good one.
Just to add... Unless one is asked to be a bridesmaid, or there's a strict dress code/cultural/religious reasons, there is no rule that states female guests must wear dresses at weddings.
