AITA for not allowing my stepdaughter to bring her boyfriend to our wedding?

My fiance and I are having a small wedding next montg with only close family friends. We recently finalised the guest list.

My soon to be stepdaughter (21f) was not happy to find out that her boyfriend would not be invited but her older brother's girlfriend is.

What? Why?

She's trying to make it seem like we're are being sexist/agist by not inviting him. I explained to her my reasoning for not wanting him there.

They've only been dating 11 months

11 months is a long time.

whereas her brother has been with his girlfriend for over 3 years. Also neither her dad or I really know her boyfriend that well whereas I have become quite good friends with her brothers girlfriend.

Maybe she'll still be with this guy in 20 years and it'll be kind of sad we didn't invite him to the wedding, but most likely they won't last

This is a horrible thing to say.

and i will be thankful i didn't invite basically a stranger to my small wedding.

We want our wedding to be small and intimate. My partner already has 7 kids and 3 grandkids which takes up an already large part of our guest list.

My younger sister is also not being permitted to bring her partner of 1.5 years for similar reasons.

What? I'm sorry but what's the minimum exactly? 2? 3? TF?!

Shes mad at me for drawing the line and has been complaining to her dad trying to get him to change his mind. Aita?

YES! YTA. Not only towards your SD, but your sister too. They aren't 1/2 months relationships. They are long lasting relationships you idiot.
