Damn sorry to hear that, I would tell the family about the wedding, send a card and flowers, and get out there another chance you get to visit with family and such.

that's a tough one.
if it was just a regular wedding i'd say go to the funeral. but in this case id go to the wedding and visit her grave later.

Wedding, celebrate the start of a new life, send your condolences for the passing of one. I personally did not attend my own grandma's funeral and she help to raise me, I prefer to remember people as they were.

Wedding like everyone else said.
The family might not be happy with you, but I'm willing to bet your great grandmother would be understanding. Send flowers and try to visit as soon as you can (or before) the wedding.

Yes, it wouldn't do neither her nor you any god to inconvenience yourself and your friend to go to the funeral. What matter is that you remember/appreciate her, and she'll live forever in your mind.

not a tough one- flowers to show condolences and go to the wedding- your best friend is alive and has been planning this for a while and if you back out it will be a huge pain in the ass to fix that at this point.
wedding and here are the reasons why...
1) grandma is gone and won't know
2) you can send flowers and funerals aren't fun
3) don't have to remember grandma in a casket but during good times in your head
4) being best man is much more rewarding
5) guaranteed bride maid pussy
6) milf hunting at the reception for those cougars wanting piece of a lad while her husband is talking to other dudes about golf
7) you have a great chance of getting plastered and banging other random chicks or making a fool of yourself
wedding > funeral :bump:

Wedding, just because i don't do well at funerals.. but that's just me.
If i were you, i'd send some really nice flowers, and attend the wedding.
