Man allows friends to host wedding in his garden, protests when they tell him we can't attend because his ex doesn't want to see his new girlfriend: 'This request is ridiculous'

It is no secret that weddings are perhaps one of the most notorious social events for causing soap opera levels of personal drama. Despite being touted as one of the happiest days of a married person's life, there are often plenty of unexpected things that can go wrong on the big day or during the planning that leads up to it.

The thing that causes all the problems varies from wedding to wedding. More often than not, the event brings up old resentments or disagreements between family, and other times, the bride, groom, or one of their bridal party starts to cause problems. However, there is a whole range of things that can go wrong with the nuptials and the party to celebrate them. Sometimes, something as integral as the guest list becomes an issue that it seems to be impossible to get past, no matter how hard the organizers try.

One man felt like he was being unfairly discriminated against when he agreed to let his friend host his wedding in the sizeable garden that belonged to his grandparents' house, which he had recently bought.
Problems arose when he wanted to bring a plus one, as his ex, who is the bride's cousin and who he almost bought the house with, was also attending the wedding and did not want to acknowledge that he was dating other people.
As a result, the bride and groom asked that he didn't bring a date. He strongly protested the request, annoying the couple. He wanted to be assured that he wasn't in the wrong.

AITA for not letting my friends use my backyard for their wedding because they do not want me to bring a plus one?
