    I'm devastated after what happened at my wedding and need your help to determine if I'm in the wrong. I'm from another country, and we had our ceremony back home, where traditions are very strict. My sister, who lives abroad and is always treated as the golden

    child of the family, turned my special day into a nightmare.

    She showed up in a breathtaking wedding gown—an over-the-top design with a floor-length train, intricate lace, a glittering tiara, and a veil that seemed to go on forever. It felt like she was trying to overshadow me on my own wedding day.

    treated like major media events, while my own wedding planning was sidelined.

    Despite my frustration, I decided to let her stay because she had contributed significantly to the wedding preparations, and I didn't want to create drama right away. I hoped that eventually, the focus would return to my partner and me. That was a huge mistake.

    "Baby on Board" cake that looked like it belonged at a fancy event, and insisted everyone raise a toast to her future child. My wedding, which was supposed to be about my partner and me, became all about her.

    At that point, I reached my breaking point. I couldn't let this farce continue, so I asked her to leave. This led to a massive family blow-up. My parents, who have always treated her as the golden child, are furious and claim I overreacted. They think I should have let her have her moment.

    Meanwhile, my friends and in- laws are on my side, saying I had every right to protect my wedding from her disruptive behavior.

    I apologize if my English isn't perfect. So, AITA for kicking my sister out of my wedding after initially letting her stay, considering her nearly identical wedding dress and her dramatic pregnancy announcement?
