AITA? Reaction

10. Kick sister out of wedding because she didn't follow the colour scheme.

AITA for kicking my sister out of my wedding because she did not follow the color scheme?

No? But I guess it depends on how strict your colour scheme was.

**Update at the end

When I 25F was 9, my parents adopted my sister “Jen” who was 7 at the time. Jen was thin and fearful due to being neglected. We did everything to make her feel loved. We bought her lots of toys. Everything Jen wanted, she got.

This isn't good.

When my parents asked me to move to the smaller bedroom so Jen could have my room,

I'm sorry, what?

I was happy to. When they asked if I would let Jen pick the decorations and cake for my upcoming birthday, I agreed.

Not another one...

I was so happy to have a sister, and I understood why my parents gave her special treatment.

I don't honestly.

Like, I understand wanting her to feel loved and wanted, but that's not how it works.

Only the treatment didn’t stop. For years, every trip we went on, we had to do what Jen wanted to do.

Yeah, because they raised her to be an entitled brat.

We had to eat where she wanted to eat. And she got to plan all MY birthday parties.

This sucks.

If she didn’t get what she wanted, she threw a tantrum.

Of course she would...

I still felt loved and cared for by my parents–they drove me to practices, bought me things, cooked meals for me, spent quality time and gave me advice,

Girl, this is the bare minimum.

but I was always second to Jen.

As I got older, I did anything I could to leave the house. I got my first job when I was 12. I vacationed with friends instead of family. I played three different sports and did band. I took my driver’s test the DAY I turned 16 and bought a car the day after. I went to college on the other side of the country.

Now that I make good money, I do things I missed as a child. I take fancy vacations and throw elaborate parties as I please. My wedding was no exception. My fiancée “Kip” and I wanted everything to be perfect. We thought it would be fun to have a color scheme. My favorite color is yellow, and his is blue, so my guests would wear yellow, his would wear blue, and mutual friends would wear green.

That's cute.

I picked out a dress with green embroidered details, and he picked a boutonniere with green flowers.

When Jen found out about this, she was mad. I didn’t know this, but she hates yellow and it “washes her out.”

Oh no... Anyway...

She told me under no circumstances would she wear yellow.

Too bad, guess you won't be at the wedding.

I shrugged and said that was fine–I would just kick her out if she did not wear yellow.

You go girl!

There was no further discussion, but on my wedding day Jen came in a purple dress. I told her to leave immediately. The color scheme was perfect and she ruined it. Jen refused to leave until I threatened to call security.
