  • 02
    Human body - My SIL is 2 months pregnant and she's due in August 6.
  • 03
    Font - Mine and my fiancé's wedding date is July 30th. We've saved the date and booked every venue about it since May. Booking a wedding these days can be really hard since everyone is rescheduling after two years of constant postponements.
  • 04
    Font - My SIL announced that she's two months pregnant last week. She also said her due date. We congratulated her and we were really excited.
  • 05
    Font - After few days, yesterday we met with her again and she said she wanted to sit me and my husband down and discuss the cancellation or postponement of our wedding because of her due date. We were shocked and surprised since we never discussed or even implied the wedding would be postponed.
  • 06
    Font - We kindly said to her that we won't cancel the wedding and we won't be mad if she won't be able to make it because her due date will be close. She said she won't accept not attending her brother's wedding so we have to make it work and look for another date.
  • 07
    Font - We explained we can't do it right now since every other date will be booked and if we cancel or postpone then next wedding date available is after February 2023.
  • 08
    Font - She said fine so be it we should book it for then. My fiancé and I were clear that we cannot and will not postpone. We have already prepaid some aspects of our vendors and we won't get all of our money back if we cancel. Also I'm gonna be honest. We don't want to cancel or postpone either.
  • 09
    Font - The wedding has been booked since spring 2021 we've almost finished all preparations for it so we will have the last few months before the wedding more relaxing and chill.

    Mammal - Also my SIL doesn't have an active role in the wedding. She's the groom's sister but she has no duties she'll have to carry out.
  • 11
    Font - She can attend and sit in a chair to feel more comfortable and leave whenever she gets tired. She can also choose not to attend all together if she doesn't feel comfortable. Even if she had duties I'd find it perfectly reasonable for her to back out.
  • 12
    Font - My in laws have all gotten involved now and they're trying to pressure us to postpone the wedding because if we don't my SIL will probably not attend and she thinks it's unfair to not be present in her brother's wedding.
  • 13
    Font - My fiancé and I have not changed our minds but my SIL claims we are very selfish for not thinking about her feelings too and changing the date. AITA for not postponing/cancelling the wedding?
  • 14
    Font - OP has offered the following explanation for why they think they might be the asshole: I may be TA because I refuse to compromise about the wedding postponement to make my SIL happy so she can experience our wedding too.

    Font - keiko1984 · 13 hr. ago NTA But holy heck why is everyone enabling SIL That seems like a issue all on its own. It sucks she won't be able to attend but these things happen & she'll just have to accept it.
