A woman sought the advice of the Reddit community after banning her sister from her wedding. According to the bride, her sister wanted her wedding dress and tried to destroy the gown a week before the wedding. While many Reddit users took the woman’s side, they were more surprised by her fiance’s reaction.
A 24-year-old bride opened up on Reddit about falling out with her sister before her big day. An unfortunate incident led the bride to uninvite her sister from her wedding, leading her to seek advice on the platform.

The woman and her 32-year-old sister, Jamie, were both engaged at the time of the incident. While the woman was set to wed her 25-year-old fiancé, Daniel, her sister was engaged to a 36-year-old man named Aaron. By the time their dispute happened, the woman had already been engaged for a year. Her sister had been engaged for three months.
Admittedly, the woman and Jamie did not grow up close to each other. In fact, they have a complex relationship plagued with bad memories.

As the woman recalled, “[Jamie] has made my life as miserable as possible for as long as I can remember.” Sadly, the woman’s wedding wasn’t spared from Jamie’s antics.
In preparation for her wedding, the woman, her mother, and Jamie went wedding dress shopping. The woman found a white lace dress with flower details and fell in love with the piece.

After trying the dress on, the woman knew she found the perfect piece, so she immediately bought it and took it back to their house.
A week before the wedding, Jamie went to her sister and told her about a wedding dress that she fell in love with and wanted to wear for her own big day.

To the woman’s surprise, the gown her sister was talking about was the same bridal dress she chose for herself, and to add insult to injury, Jamie asked her to get a new gown instead.
The woman narrated, “I obviously told her no because my wedding was in a week, [and I] already bought it and had it fitted. She then continued to throw a fit and tell me how it wasn’t fair, and I always ruin everything for her [sic].”

Hours later, the woman found Jamie in a private room where she wasn’t supposed to enter. She saw Jamie holding her wedding dress, ready to cut it into pieces.
Immediately, the woman scrambled and tried to take her dress from her sister, screaming. Meanwhile, Jamie tried her best to hold on to the dress and destroy it. Jamie blamed her sister for not choosing another dress. She reasoned that if her sister had given the gown to her, she wouldn’t have reacted that way.

“I told her she was crazy and that she was no longer welcome at my wedding,” the woman revealed. Unfortunately, the woman’s fiancé believed uninviting Jamie was too harsh, despite the woman thinking otherwise.
Several Reddit users shared their thoughts on the matter, with most of them siding with the woman and calling Jamie crazy. One person noted that Jamie may be clinically diagnosed with something based on her behavior and should be cut out of the woman’s life completely.

Meanwhile, other Reddit users called out the woman’s fiancé for taking Jamie’s side. “Does he make a habit of dismissing your feelings in favor of others?” one person asked.
