‘Lena tried to force her way into my bridal party and to replan our entire wedding’: Bride’s intimate wedding plans almost ruined by her fiancé’s sister, who demands to be bridesmaid, and take over the event, turning it into over-the-top Las Vegas trip

Weddings are supposed to be about love, unity, and, if you're lucky, a decent tier cake. But in reality, they're more like auditions for who will attempt to hijack your milestone for the sake of their own ego and Instagram feed. Announce your engagement and, like clockwork, someone emerges from the extended family tree clutching a vision board and a burning desire to turn your first dance into their personal spotlight.

It doesn't matter if you want an intimate dinner or a backyard barbecue; suddenly, you're fending off unsolicited color palettes, teary monologues about "family unity," and group texts suggesting your first dance be replaced with a flash mob. Assert your wishes and you're instantly accused of being cold, controlling, or, my personal favorite, "jealous of confidence."

The phenomenon of wedding hijackers is as endless as the open bar. There's always someone fueled by equal parts entitlement and bridal magazine delusion who views your wedding less as a celebration and more as an untapped branding opportunity. And this bride's case, a sister-in-law who unilaterally creates group chats without the bride, and pitches PowerPoints with "elevated" themes that would make Versailles blush

And so, while some brides walk down the aisle to wedding bells, others have their ceremony overshadowed by a rogue relative in a black sequin dress, determined to prove that no wedding is complete until someone tries to rebrand it as "Lena's Big Day."
