AITA if I don’t attend my girlfriend’s sister’s wedding?

Me (21f) and my gf (22f) have been dating for two years and our families are extremely close, our mothers are best friends as well.

Recently her eldest sister (34f) got engaged and the wedding will be held this year possibly in 4 months or less. My family will definitely be attending the wedding and she has invited me as well and I expressed that I don’t wanna attend because weddings here are very overwhelming for me for a number of reasons such as being heavily tattooed which is not accepted in our society at all and I would have to spend weeks finding a nice dress that covers up my body entirely. Weddings in our country is also kind of like the met gala , everyone wears over the top dresses, full sets of lavish jewelry, makeup done professionally etc and It isn’t enjoyable to me at all especially because I am more masculine presenting and I just got done from two of my brothers weddings that were just a few months apart last year so I feel exhausted. My girlfriend isn’t taking it well and is extremely upset and she’s insisting on me attending, called me selfish & unfair since she attended both of my brothers wedding even one of them after a 9hr flight.

I also wouldn’t be attending as her plus one or anything like that because of two reasons; lesbian relationships are not accepted in our country/society and her family is unaware of our relationship, my family are the only ones that are aware of us.

AITA?
