Not only were those “gray” and “blush” dresses WHITE, they’re ruffled in a way that resembles a wedding dress. Sis knew exactly what she was doing

[taracitti]

My friend had her four year old son walk her down the aisle. When he handed her over to her husband to be he said “ here’s my mom!!” He was so proud to lead her down the aisle. He told everyone after the ceremony “ we’re all married now! I have have a daddy now”. His bio dad left before he was born cause he had Down’s syndrome and his mom wouldn’t terminate the pregnancy. It doesn’t matter who walks you down the aisle, as long as it’s someone who loves you.

[ShelmaReactions]

I would be proud to walk a sibling down the aisle.

[kookyjoeb]

I’m surprised no one mentioned the fact that the parents of the first bride were going on a TWO YEAR vacation. Is there any reason they couldn’t fly home for a week for their daughter’s wedding?

[xchrysantha]

One of my best friends got married last month, and her parents decided not to be at the wedding (for s****y petty reasons and I will never stop being angry about it). So the day of the ceremony, she walked herself halfway down the aisle, and her husband met her halfway and walked the rest of the way to the front with her.

WHEN I TELL YOU I F***ING SOBBED lol. It was so beautiful to see, it was like my friend had walked alone for such a long time, and her husband was coming in to pick her up and take care of her for the rest of her life. F*** it was beautiful. <3

[supercalifragilisticex]

The siblings from the first story were selfish and shame on the parents for missing their youngest daughter's wedding for that. Caring for your siblings doesn't make you old.

[yasmin]

I mean, whoever can afford a two YEAR vacation could easily afford plane tickets to attend a wedding, just saying.

[pmb]

The sister dress story: Dress aside, the most disturbing thing is her attitude towards op's fiance & child. A good person with no hidden intention does not behave like that.

[georgiawilliams]

For those saying she should have told her parents she wanted them at her wedding, frankly, OP shouldn’t have to tell her parents that it hurts that they won’t be at her wedding. I think it’s common sense that them not being at their daughters wedding would be hurtful.
Also it’s not like their holiday is only a week and she’s making them miss a day of it. It’s 2 years. They can travel back for a couple of days to see their child get married. Would you want to postpone your wedding for people who clearly don’t care enough about you?

[venusbleu]

I love that it's easy for everyone to tell her speak up but also does this story not reek of the fact that she was probably never greatly considered or prioritized...that doesn't magically change with age or circumstances. It's not hard to understand that that's part of the problem.

[dantesos]

Charlotte theres a wedding story i just read yesterday, not sure u have covered it or not. A MIL who was co dependent on her son & didnt like the sons bride to be. Insisted on wearing white to the wedding cause it was her special day too so the bride switched things up, wore a pink wedding gown and the maids wore white gowns & the MIL was furious cause no one told her & it ruined her moment 😂

[heleninglis]

1st story, i understand her not feeling like she can't stand up for herself. I feel that way because when i was younger i was either ignored, told i was being stupid, or i was screamed at to the point i was in tears. Now i feel terrified to speak up for myself most of the time.

[twilightnyteshaed]

I read the first story back when it was still up, OP's parent's "trip" was between 2 and 3 years in length, just to add some context. Due to the length, it simply is not feasible to put the wedding on hold, and given the length of the trip, the parents could potentially fly home to attend the wedding and go back after. This is why they needed full visas and not just passports, they are going to be living in another country for a long period of time.

[xDarkTrinityx]

As someone who's been with my boyfriend for 16 years, unmarried, that last one pisses me off. Not everyone needs a piece of paper or a wedding to be committed to each other.

[letitialuffman]

As the mother of 6, , I can't imagine missing one of my children's wedding for any reason, , I can't imagine not having a close family.. I'm so thankful... my heart aches for these children who don't get the same love and affection as their siblings 💔💔

[sarahw]

I've apparently been stewing about this for nearly 30 years:

My wedding, while not awful, was actually my *mother's* wedding. She chose the venue, menu, bridesmaid dresses, colors, table centerpieces, flowers, etc.

My husband and I were allowed to choose the cake, because Mom was a die-hard Weight Watcher and didn't want to do the tasting.

Mom also insisted on a Episcopalian Mass ("Or you might as well not get married!"), even though my husband's family is Catholic and half my mother's family are Jewish.

My request for a hairdresser, among other smallish things that weren't budget-breakers (like wanting a vegetarian entree for several of my friends and SIL) were vetoed with the usual, and frequent, "No, honey, you don't want that."

I finally mentioned that found this strange, as I could have sworn I'd just heard me say I did want that. And she told me that because HER mother had decided everything at HER wedding, she deserved to do the same for mine.

After I suggested that she should understand how I felt about having my wedding be, you know, mine, she said, "But then *I* won't ever have a wedding!"

😐

I mean, my sister's been married four times, but okay...

[SloppyxJoe]

as someone who comes from a very invalidating and abusive household, i'm willing to bet there is a lot more history in the family of the one bride whose family was going on vacation instead of going to her wedding than she let the world know. i wouldn't be able to stand up to my family either for fear of ridicule and potentially even verbal/mental abuse and manipulation as that's something they've done to me for voicing my opinion and sticking up for myself my entire life.

[racheljenkins_]

If I was in the first girl's situation, I honestly think I'd just be petty af and uninvite them all and have my father-in-law walk me down the aisle. If y'all don't want to be my family, fine, I'll pick a new one.

[MsHalabaloo]

I can relate so much to the first girl. ‘Speak up’ seems like such an easy solution. But when you’ve been raised and conditioned to essentially keep your mouth shut and cater to everyone’s needs other than your own (which she absolutely did) for your whole life, speaking up can feel debilitating and impossible. You don’t know how to bc you’ve never had any practice at it. Or been given a chance. Having to start finding your voice as an adult is the most daunting thing. But it’s bc what was supposed to your safe space (your family/home) engrained in us how invisible and invaluable we are, that we start to believe it ourselves, and accept the treatment that comes from it thereafter. I hope she finds peace and joy in her spouse and new family she builds for herself.

So, a couple of things. 1. I love your bridezilla videos. They are marvelous. 2. I got married in 1987 to my high school love, after dating for 5 years. Our entire wedding, including my dress, cost less than $2000. We had the very best time, and best of all I was misidentified as a princess when I got out of the car by a precious little girl! We are still married, and still happy. Didn't require a dress code, only had a cake reception, and everyone went dancing after. Best. Time. Ever!
