    AITA for not inviting my siblings to my wedding?

    My sister (34F) and her husband (36M) just got married 3 months ago. I (30F) was appointed MOH. I was so excited to help her plan her wedding and I took on most of the work since i was unemployed at the time and she's a doctor. I wont get into

    details but take note she didn't have a wedding planner. It was all me. The time leading up to the wedding, I was miserable because of how the bride treated me. I felt like her own personal slave that she felt she could kick around because "she's the bride".
  • 05
    Just because youre a bride doesnt mean you get a free pass to be a b ch. Many times I wanted to just step out of the wedding party but i kept telling myself to just bite my tongue and keep the peace because she's probably just stressed.

    After doing SO MUCH for her, she refused to invite my fiance even if we've been together for 12 years but invited my siblings' partners who have been around for only 2-3yrs. My sister and her guy dated for a year before they got engaged so we don't really know

    him too well. She said she didnt want my fiance around because people would be asking about my own wedding since they've all been wanting us to get married for a while. I refused to do any more work for her wedding until she apologised to me and invited

    my fiance, which she did. Not exactly sincerely but whatever. I was hurt she wasn't even grateful for anything that I had done for her and her dream wedding because it was EXPECTED OF ME to help. Cut to the day of the wedding and everything was fine. The
  • 09
    ceremony was beautiful and the couple was happy. I was happy for my sister. By the time we got to the reception venue, I noticed that my fiance and I were on a separate table from my family. They were at the vip table and I was cast aside to sit at the
  • 10
    furthest table right beside the kitchen. I figured there was a mistake and i calmly asked the bride about it since she handled the seating plan. She looked me dead in the eye and said there's no mistake, that's where we belong. At the kids table and far away. (We were seated with 7-

    14yr olds). The groom overheard us and agreed with me but kept quiet when my sister gave him this 'don't you dare disagree with me' look. (At the end of the night, the groom apologised to my parents for what happened to me and said he had no clue his bride did that. But he didnt say a word

    to me as his bride told him not to) Because of this, I decided to not make an issue and just try to enjoy the remainder of the night with my partner but I wouldn't make a MOH speech. My parents noticed where I was and got upset at the situation as

    well. My siblings knew very well I wasn't at their table but didn't bother looking for me or wondering why I wasn't seated there. When they heard I wasn't making a speech, my 2 brothers walked to my table to tell me off saying I had to understand my sister and the stress of being a
  • 14
    bride, be nice to her because it's her special day and you're only a bride once (yeah right I bet they'll divorce), that I'm a disgrace and a disgusting disappointment for not doing a speech for my sister, that I would make my sister sad and I was being selfish making

    the night about me (when I was literally quiet in our corner). Needless to say, I wasn't having the best time. So we got up and left. We ended up in McDonald's for dinner and I posted a story of us getting burgers saying "post wedding meal". I made sure I

    posted it after the reception ended to not make it look like I ditched but my siblings saw this as an attack to my sister somehow. Up to this day, the bride says she did nothing wrong and her reasoning for putting me there

    was (1) I didn't plan her wedding exactly like she envisioned during the process so I deserved to sit there (when i was doing everything she told me she wanted), (2) she didn't like that I looked pretty in my gown and (3) I needed to be punished for insisting on bringing my fiance...
  • 18
    I didn't plan for my own wedding yet as I wanted to be 100% focused on hers (plus she banned me from getting married before her since she's older...again because i didnt want the drama, i agreed.) But now I just don't want anyone there except my
  • 19
    parents and a few close friends. My parents agree with me but my siblings are upset calling me childish but to be completely honest, I just don't feel like paying for s t people. Mine is a destination wedding and my fiance and i are paying for
  • 20
    everything. These are our savings and I don't feel like splurging on these people. They along with my grandparents and cousins are all saying i'm wrong. But hey if I was excluded from being a sibling at my sister's wedding and no one cared, then why would you be upset if I excluded you in return?

    Junglerumble19. 3 mo. ago NTA. You can't choose your family but you can choose who you spend time with. Your sister, and your sibs are AH. The fact that an educated doctor can state that you 'need to be
  • 22
    punished' and not realise how middle school she's being really shows her garbage person character. She also outsourced the entire wedding planning to you - for free - and then thought it was OK to use you as a punching bag.
  • 23
    Good for you for standing up to her about your fiance, what an absolutely ridiculous reason to exclude him (again how anyone with any basic self awareness can say these things is just beyond).
  • 24
    I personally would be going NC with all but your parents and then build your own family from friends who actually appreciate you and treat you with respect.

    wedding and that are supportive of you and your partner. Your siblings clearly don't meet this criteria.
