    Font - My (32f) daughter Chloe (4f) has a fascination with princesses. She loves the color pink, wears only dresses, and has an array of tiaras she wears everywhere except at pre-school where she can't (but she does have it in her backpack).

    Font - My cousin 33m 'Alex' (fake names) invited us to his wedding, which was this past Saturday. Chloe was excited because she got to dress up and stay dressed up the entire time. She also couldn't wait to see the bride's dress. She asked if she could wear her princess tiara and I said of course.

    Font - We got to the wedding on time. However, the start time was delayed for unknown reasons. 15 minutes after it was supposed to start, one of the bridesmaids came out and told me that the bride Jen (31f) was refusing to come out because my daughter was wearing a tiara. I thought she was joking but she wasn't. Apparently, the bride was also wearing a tiara and wanted to be the only one wearing it.

    Font - I told the bridesmaid that Chloe loves tiaras and always wears them. The bridesmaid said "not today she isn't" and told me it needed to be removed. I said no. The bride is a grown woman and was being petty over a child's tiara.

    Font - The bridesmaid left for a couple minutes and then Alex himself came out. He told me to leave. I asked why and he said because I won't tell Chloe to take off her tiara. I said this was ridiculous and Alex said it's not my wedding and when I get married then Chloe can wear one to mine, but that I'm officially uninvited regardless. Others around me told me to just take it off and I wouldn't. Alex's mom came over and escorted us out.

    Font - Chloe was upset and crying because she feels she did something wrong and I'm upset because I can't believe someone would be jealous over a literal 4 year old. I also feel bad because Chloe was really looking forward to seeing Jen's dress because she loves wedding dresses. But literally no one is on my side. AITA?

    Font - Edit: someone asked if my cousin has a mental illness. I said no but the bride has Aspergers and they said that's important for you all to know.

    Font - OP has offered the following explanation for why they think they might be the asshole: I might be TA because it's tradition that only a bride wear a tiara and I didn't make Chloe take hers off.

    Font - snewton_8 · 22 hr. ago Pooperintendant [56] YTA for not complying with the Bride's request/demand. It is their wedding and their rules. There is a reason "Literally no one is on my side" in this. Because you were wrong.

    Font - Odd_Trifle_2604 · 22 hr. ago YTA, if your daughter is able to understand she can't wear a tiara at preschool she can understand that she can't wear it at the wedding. Once you were asked politely to remove it you should have done so. Let your daughter hold it on her lap and just tell her today's Jen's special day and she wants to be the only princess. You can wear it in the car and all day tomorrow. You made a stink over it, held up someone else's wedding and there's no indication your ch
