“We wouldn’t be able to afford all of this”

A woman walked away from her sister’s wedding when the bride became too legitimate.

She shared what happened on the Reddit “Am I the A ******” forum. She had planned to attend the wedding at first. Then the bride insisted that the Reddit poster pay for expensive clothes and gifts. She finally got fed up when the bride asked for a $ 2,500 honeymoon.

“My sister is getting married in January,” the Reddit poster wrote. “She sent out the invitations last month, and I said yes. But soon after, my husband and I regretted our response. My sister chose the clothes for every immediate member of her and her fiance’s family to buy and said we would be turned away if we didn’t comply. My dress is $ 350, my husband’s costume is $ 290, our daughter’s dress is $ 120, and our sons were going to wear $ 80 costumes. She informed the family, in addition to the cost of our clothes, that she passed the discount on to the rooms so that she could invite more people to the wedding, and a single room costs $ 200 for the night, double rooms $ 300, and the family room is $ 500, and she already made the effort to book us those rooms, and we had to pay the money. I told him that was a lot and that we couldn’t afford all of that.

But the final straw for the Reddit poster was when the bride demanded that she pay for the honeymoon.

“My parents offered to pay for our hotel room, then she sent us the link to the gift we * have * to buy for her,” the Reddit poster said. “It’s $ 600 and can only be purchased online and includes shipping, or we’ll have to travel to another state to pick it up.” My parents told him that it was unreasonable to expect so much from all of us. She said it was reasonable to expect your family to make your special day a good one. My husband and I strongly debated whether to opt out of marriage altogether. We agreed to ignore the requests and show up anyway. But then she announced that my parents, husband and I were responsible for paying for their honeymoon. Their honeymoon package was $ 2,500. Right after that I sent another message stating that our RSVP was going from a ‘yes’ to a ‘no’ and that we wouldn’t be able to afford all of that, and how demanding she is on our money. , we think it is best that we are not there. “
