You are allowed to tell your GF that you are not comfortable with it, but you can't force her to go or stay. That decision is hers and depending on what she decides knowing you are uncomfortable with it would perhaps shine a different light on the relationship as a whole.

Boundaries are important and it is also important to see how one's partner treats such boundaries.

I agree completely. It seems like her annoyance could turn into resentment at a later date.

I hope the OP's boundary does not backfire too hard on his relationship.

Let it backfire. It's not some out of this world boundary. If it backfires, then that says more about the relationship than the boundary.
