Just to be clear, keep the kids in first position around this

Easter is just the bunny and egg hunt for us, but also family dinner which was/is important. I am still on the fence about what to do. Invite not invite they both seem correct. On one hand I don't want her to cake eat on the other hand I don't want to punish her.
It's not our job to mete out consequences. If you felt a boundary (for your protection) was appropriate, that's understandable. That doesn't seem to be the case in your situation.
Why do you think she doesn't trust you? How can you begin to build that trust?
I think we ARE supposed to show what they will be missing. It's not like he told her she can't come to Easter. He can let her come if she asks; he just doesn't have to invite her unless she tells him she wants to try full on for R.
