Her Sister Wanted To Use Her Wedding As A Free Venue For Engagement Photos And Even Brought A Change Of Clothes, But She Wouldn’t Let That Happen
This 30-year-old woman recently tied the knot and married the love of her life, but unfortunately, her 28-year-old sister created some drama on her wedding day.
For some context, she claimed that her sister has always been the more “demanding” member of her family. Her sister loves taking centerstage, being in the spotlight, and asking for whatever she wants – even if it’s at the expense of others.
“Despite this, we’ve had a decent relationship until now,” she said.
Her wedding, which took place a few weeks ago, was at a beautiful venue, and she and her fiancé saved up for over two years just to afford the event.
In her eyes, everything turned out perfectly, too, and all of their efforts made the wedding a “day to remember.”
However, during the reception, her sister approached her with a shocking request. Her sister – who is currently engaged – asked if she and her own fiancé could take their engagement photos at her wedding venue.
“I was a bit taken aback because it was my wedding day, and they hadn’t mentioned this plan beforehand,” she recalled.
“My sister had even brought a change of clothes for the shoot.”
Quite frankly, though, she just was not comfortable with the idea since her wedding was supposed to be her and her fiancé’s special day. Not to mention, they’d hired their photographer specifically for their nuptials.

That’s why she told her sister, no, and a ton of drama ensued.
Her sister became super upset, claimed the engagement photos wouldn’t take very long, and accused her of being selfish. Still, she refused to budge and told her sister to find a different time and place for the engagement pictures.
Well, this caused her sister to storm off, and her mom actually took her side – saying she should’ve just let the engagement photos happen in order to keep things peaceful in their family.
Ever since her wedding, her sister hasn’t been speaking to her, either, and her mom just keeps pressuring her to apologize!
“And I feel conflicted because I believe my wedding day should have been about me and my husband, not an opportunity for my sister to hijack the spotlight,” she vented.
Still, she can’t help but wonder if refusing to let her sister use her wedding as a free venue for engagement photos really did make her a jerk.
Was her sister’s request inappropriate and disrespectful? Can you understand why she wouldn’t allow the engagement photos to be taken during her big day? Should she be the one who apologizes or not?
