Daughter refuses to let 2-year-old brother to stick around for her wedding ceremony after he presents the rings, her mother tries to guilt her into a compromise

In life, there are certain choices one must make to prioritize their wants and needs over others. No one needs to be selfless 100 percent of the time… If humans did so, we probably wouldn't have survived all of these years. One situation that allows for peak selfishness (mostly because of the large price tag) is weddings. As long as the bride or groom is not financially taking advantage of their guests, they get to call the shots. Former brides, I'm sure you agree with this sentiment. A wedding venue, florals, catering, outfits, photography, and more cost an arm and a leg in most cases… and that's only for a few hours on one day that you will (hopefully) never have again. If you don't want kids at your wedding, for example, what you say, goes!

The soon-to-be bride who posted this story does not want her two-year-old brother to stick around for her wedding after he brings the wedding rings up to the altar. She told her mother that she'd rather have her undivided attention during the celebration and suggested she hire a nanny to watch over him during the festivities. Her mother goes down guilt-trip lane and even leaves the soon-to-be-bride to second-guess herself. Not on the internet's watch, though. Scroll to read.

The future bride's concerns are valid ones… Who wants a fussy human in their terrible-twos era crying while trying to exchange vows? I'm waiting…
Even if her brother stays, the bride raises a good point: Her mother will not be all-in. Instead of watching her beautiful daughter on the altar, she'll be watching her toddler-aged son, making sure he's not getting red-eyed and blue. It's not fair to the bride because she likely put a lot of money into this and refuses to look back on such an important (and PRICEY) day with any regret.
