What do you do when family plans an event that’ll throw your baby’s bedtime schedule off?

My fiancé and I are really big on keeping our daughters bedtime schedule strict and my FIL and MIL consistently are saying “she will be fine. Just don’t follow a schedule” and that’s not how we work! They’ve now moved 35 minutes away and have scheduled Christmas to be pretty late in the evening so by the time we’d be on the way home she’d fall asleep and it would ruin her bedtime schedule and we’d be stuck with the cranky, not wanting to sleep baby. My fiancé and I both don’t know what to do. We can’t ask them to change their times but with Christmas being an hour before our daughters bedtime we can’t do it.
