📝 I feel very alone right now

Hello, so I am getting married in two weeks from now, to the love of my life. The thing is, my big sister has never really liked him, especially after he proposed to me. Fortunately, she hides it well and is always nice to him, but she has discussed with me in private that she is upset he isn't Italian like us. My parents agree, and seemingly my other sisters too. According to them, he doesn't know how to cook, there is a "language barrier" between all of us and he is "lazy." Whenever they say things like this I feel hurt and embarrassed. I never have a good argument, and I feel guilty for not defending him on his behalf. Just a few days ago, my parents told me to "stop playing around, and drop this man already." I felt seriously disrespected, I had enough, and I yelled at them before I could stop myself. I called them names I regret. It got very loud and doors were slammed. Afterwards, I ended up crying alone in my room. I believe when someone is truly in love, they become happy. From the moment I met him I have become the best version of myself and I will always be shocked how they can't see that and just be supportive, and happy for me. Another thing I kind of regret was the morning after that I disregarded everyone, my mother's food, their conversation attempts with me, and I told them and bluntly I was going out with my fiancee. Which I was. We had a relatively fun afternoon but I felt myself stressing about the wedding like I have been these past few days. I had always invisioned my whole big family coming to my wedding but I can't see that happening right now. Just yesterday my sisters told me mom and dad are feeling betrayed and shocked at how I acted and what I am doing but I don't care. I feel betrayed as well. I have a bad temper and I am only briefly speaking with my sisters and parents. I pretty much cut them off. I feel sort of bad but I also kind of think my feelings valid. So, am I the a-hole here?
