That’s why her sister started asking other family members for more cash. And while some people did chip in, Jamie has only gotten an extra $5,000.
“And unfortunately, my sister knows I saved the $20,000 from my parents and that my husband and I have a good amount of money saved up because of our salaries,” she revealed.
That’s why she and her husband have become Jamie’s latest target. More specifically, her sister will not stop asking her to either provide $20,000 as a wedding gift or help pay for another event– such as the bachelorette party, bridal shower, rehearsal dinner, or honeymoon.
Apparently, her sister’s reasoning is that she and her husband can easily afford it. Plus, Jamie pointed out how she had already gifted one of her cousins a honeymoon vacation as a wedding gift just last year.
So, her sister believes that if she could do that for a cousin, then she could do the same for her own sibling.
But, while her sister is right that she could easily afford to pay for the wedding, she really just is not interested.
“In all honesty, I don’t want to give her anything after she treated me so poorly following my own wedding,” she admitted.
She wound up being honest and telling her sister that, too– claiming that she just didn’t want to financially support someone who failed to support her on her own wedding day.
Ever since that conversation, though, Jamie has not changed her behavior whatsoever. Instead, her sister has proceeded to tell her entire family that she is extremely immature and selfish.
What’s even worse is that Jamie had apparently put deposits down for various services and vendors and just expected that she would swoop in and help pay for it.
But, now that she is refusing to fund the wedding, Jamie has no way of paying for any of the vendors and will not even be able to get the deposits back.
