Planning a wedding requires a ton of time and foresight, but this baby sister was just waiting around for her family to do the dirty work for her. After eloping last year, she had a baby and decided to have her wedding celebration in 2025. However, after almost a year and no save-the-dates being sent out, her sister, who was engaged in December, decided to move forward with her own dreams of a summer wedding.

  • Since the younger sister had nothing planned yet, surely she'd have to wait until next year—but she insisted on gatekeeping the entire concept of a summer wedding, fuming and retaliating against her sibling after her idea was ‘stolen.’ Sorry, sis, but a summer wedding isn't exactly a groundbreaking, patented concept. 

    After a few harsh words were exchanged, the entitled younger sister decided that burning the bridge with her sibling was a smarter course of action than planning ahead for her own life, removing herself from the bridal party and alienating everyone in the family.

  • oulipopcorn She didn't have a date and she didn't have a plan. Pay her for what? She didn't lose any deposits. Tell you mom to set her straight, it's a parenting issue not a you-issue.

  • MathematicianNew760. She wants you to feel bad, but you shouldn't. How can someone call dibs on 3 months of the year? What a narcissist.

  • OrcEight ⚫ She is just being overly dramatic and delusional. She cannot block an entire summer for her wedding alone.

  • Embarrassed_Wrap8421. I can just hear it now: "THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE MY YEAR!!!!" Ignore your sister, have a beautiful wedding, and good luck.

  • EbonyRazrQueen Girl, if you don't block this girl, I'll do it for you. It's already May, and she still has nothing booked/planned. She sounds like she still would have had you hanging on even next year. Move on from her and this, and focus on you and your fiancé. I hope you all have a beautiful marriage.
