In every wedding party, there is at least one person who manages to make the entire ceremony about themselves, and it's often not the person getting married.

For those of you who have had the sometimes fortunate and oftentimes unfortunate experience of being a part of a bridal party, you likely know that the organization of a wedding with a group like that can reveal people's true colors. Sure, we tend to discuss how this manifests in the bride and groom's behavior, but it can also come from friends and family from childhood, school, and everywhere in between.

In this instance, the author's bridesmaid insisted that her sister come to her friend's wedding, despite the fact that the two barely knew one another. At first, the author was fine with it because she thought the sister would be the bridesmaid's plus one. Then, the bridesmaid revealed that her spouse was, in fact, coming as well. So this was an additional guest that she just felt entitled to invite.

Eventually, as the wedding approached, the bridesmaid needed to pull out of the ceremony because she was very pregnant at the time. Not a problem, but the sister decided that she still needed to come. This drove the bride understandably insane.

    We had a large wedding this fall and had to be very specific with our guest list because of space limits. One of my bridesmaids,

  • Stacy, told me her husband would be out of town for our wedding and asked if she could bring her sister instead. I've met her sister but we're not close.

  • Since it was an adult for an adult swap and we allotted two spots, we said sure and updated our online RSVP platform with her sister's name.

  • A few weeks later we get their RSVP and all three of them RSVP'd yes. I asked Stacy if it was a mistake and she said "Good news! My husband can come now, so all three of us will be there yay"

  • My husband and I hate drama and since a few guests had already RSVP'd no, we let it slide. In hindsight, we should have shut it down.

  • Fast forward to a month and a half before the wedding, Stacy tells me she's not sure she can come anymore because of how she might be feeling in her pregnancy. Totally fine - her call.

  • I told her I support whatever decision she makes, but we did need final numbers soon.

  • She said, "Okay ya I'm probably not coming, but my sister can still go. She will represent us."

  • I had to tell her straight up that her sister was never on the original guest list. I don't know her that well, and she won't know

  • anyone, and I don't feel comfortable having her there by herself. So I told Stacy I'm going to put all three of them as a no.

  • And now Stacy doesn't talk to me anymore. How did we go from a simple guest swap to "my sister is going in our place to represent us" to cutting contact lmao. The audacity is wild.

  • PearGlum1966 · 15h ago . That would be so strange. If I were the sister, I wouldn't want to come. It would be the most awkward of weddings to be on your own and know no one. Weird!

  • RobynNeonGal 15h ago • Weird! Why would her sister still go?? That makes no sense. She's not close to the couple. And why would she want to go to a wedding she has no connection to anymore? Free meal? Lol.
