Entitled Mother Brings Rowdy Children To Sister's Wedding, Gets Kicked Out Of Ceremony

Children are a wonderful gift to this world. They are adorable, inspiringly optimistic, and often restore our faith in humanity by being so kind. But that being said, no child is perfect all the time, they could be chill half the time, but you can never really predict when their evil side is going to make an appearance.

A woman shared her story on the 'Am I The A-Hole' page on Reddit. She explains that she wanted a child-free wedding. Meaning, even though she had nothing against children she didn't want the possibility of them throwing a fit while she says her 'I do's.' Everybody respected her rule, except for her sister... And the end result was some big fat juicy family tension.

    via u/Adorinina

    It might seem evil at first, for someone to kick out their sister based on something they can't control, aka her childrens' temperament. But what she could have controlled was bringing them at all in the first place. You can never predict when a tantrum is going to take place with children, and that is exactly why the bride set her boundaries in the first place.

    Font - I got married this past Saturday. It was a very small affair with less than 70 people in attendance. I opted for a childfree wedding due to both costs and convenience. I like kids, just not at my wedding.
    via u/Adorinina

    It was an informed decision that this bride made. She wanted a smaller wedding with no children. Her definition of small is a bit questionable. 70 people to most people is a large group. But that's not what this story is about. I digress.

    Human body - Most people were fine with the childfree aspect. The wedding was announced a year in advance so most people could find accommodations.

    Font - The problem is my sister who was one of four bridesmaids. She has two boys, one is 2 and other is 5. Thursday she drops that her sitter fell through, and she asked for them to be allowed at the wedding. I felt pressured, but she begged for them to come. I told her as long as they behaved and her husband kept an eye on them.

    Facial expression - She was late getting to the venue cause the boys were fussy getting ready, so she's only in a handful of the "getting ready" pics. Fine, ok. Then the ceremony itself happened, and my nephew (younger one) began to act up during the vows.

    Font - My husband and I wrote our own, and about halfway through mine he begins to cry and fuss. My bil grabbed him and very awkwardly made his way out, with my older nephew behind telling his brother to shush. I had to restart my vows twice due to the disruption, and I was already so nervous. The venue was outdoor as well, so we could hear my nephew fussing for a while until my bil got them a good distance away. I didn't see this at the time, but according to the best man my sister was dramatic

    Font - After the ceremony itself my sister vanished for a while, so we were held up with wedding party photos again. After the pictures, my sister didn't even say anything, no apology, nada. After the first dances she finally came up and was like "haha sorry about [nephew], it was nap time! He's settled now."

    Font - It was such a non apology and I was so upset. I told her I didn't like how dismissive she was of my wedding and how I broke my own rule to accommodate her family and she didn't seem to care. She said she was sorry again but I was blowing things out of proportion, and how it wasn't as big of a disruption as I was making it out to be. I was just boiling at this point and asked her to please go, I didn't want her there anymore.

    Handwriting - She and our mom was upset, and she was acting like a victim. She and I still haven't talked, I've had a lot of people (mostly friends) say I was in the right, but my family seems to think l'm a bridezilla cause the disruption had already happened and I was just "punishing" them.

    Font - I'm not angry at my nephew. I'm angry at myself for bending on my childfree rules and my sister for everything, esp her half assed apology.

    Font - CZT1991 · 4h Partassipant [3] She is an asshole for bringing them and making you feel pressured when you already set up boundaries and preferences for this situation exactly. NTA Maybe it's me but I would've told her "sorry if you can't find a sitter then you or BIL have to miss out -I already am anxious enough I don't need to risk a speech disruption" - maybe then you'd have been made out to be a bridezilla too, though It is a big deal; a deal that only happened because she made you (whi

    Font - BlorpBlarp · 4h Asshole Aficionado [10] NTA. It's unfortunate she couldn't find accommodations, but couldn't her husband just have taken care of them at home?? You held up your wedding multiple times for it and honestly l'd want to be done with it all, too. She knew it was nap time and instead of having her child sleep it off somewhere with her husband, she brought the child to your vows so he could scream...like every child does when they're tired?? The wedding was over, she got to atten

    Font - aquasaurex• 4h Colo-rectal Surgeon [33] NTA You asked that she keep the children quiet and yet they interrupted your vows at least 2 times. She was then late for getting pictures of the wedding party because (instead of her hubby taking care of the kids) she had to go make sure they were settled in. So she made you WAIT to enjoy your wedding until SHE was ready to have the wedding party pictures taking, holding up EVERYTHING because of her needs. Sounds like a stellar wedding. G Reply 1 1

    Font - Last_Minute_Lulu · 3h My brother tried to have a child-free wedding until a cousin suddenly showed up with their 4 sons (at the time, all under the age of 6) without explanation and then caused a scene when my brother very politely tried to ask what was up. Some people just don't think the rules apply to them. G Reply 4 52 3 ...
