Bride Locks Herself In The Bathroom After Learning Her Fiancé Plans On Asking His Sister To Be A Groomsman At Their Wedding

A wedding fight over one groomsman turned into a full-blown breakup, and the drama started with a simple question about the wedding party.

In this Reddit story, OP says his fiancée Sarah has never liked his sister, even though the two siblings are very close. Things seemed calmer after OP proposed a few months ago, but that changed fast when Sarah shared her bridal party plans and then heard that OP wanted his sister to stand with him as a groomsman.

Sarah said it would embarrass her, OP stood his ground, and the argument ended with her locking herself in the bathroom. Now the engagement is on shaky ground, and the sister is caught in the middle.

Sarah has since left her jail, the locked bathroom, but she is still not talking to her fiancé.

She has enlisted most of her family members to guilt OP. They have been calling him and trying to convince him not to invite his sister to their wedding at all.

They said Sarah should be the most important woman in OP's life, not his sister. OP's future mother-in-law joined in on the fun and told OP he was making Sarah depressed, asking him how he could do this to his future wife.

OP talked to his sister about all of this, and she said it would be okay if she wasn't invited to the wedding. OP refused to do that and told his bride's family that his sister would be a part of the wedding no matter what.

Breaking news: Sarah doesn't like OP's sister because she caught them "cuddling," meaning OP had his arm around his sister while her head was on his shoulder.

That detail made the whole situation even messier.

One of the reasons why OP wanted his sister to be a part of his wedding is that she's aromantic and got upset about the idea that she may never get married. When he told her she could be a part of his wedding, she had a look of pure happiness that OP can't imagine ruining.

Bridesdude sounds so cute!

Keep up with the times, Sarah!

But this is definitely waaaaay cuter. Please CC us in the photos when you get them!

For another “family first” showdown, read the sister who got excluded from her sibling’s vow renewal and chose boundaries over attendance.

At this rate, if they get married, OP will have no other people left in his life except for her.

Disgusting behavior from Sarah's corner.

OP will be under the control of Sarah AND her family if they get married. The poor sister will not be allowed to be a part of his life.

Correct, OP has to reassure his sister that if the engagement falls apart, it wouldn't be her fault.

Two major points of concern: first, the sexualization of a brother-sister relationship; second, coercion through pressure from her family.

Is she an only child who can't seem to grasp the boundaries of the sibling bond?

Disgusting behavior from Sarah's corner.

Right? The idea that a wedding is the only bride's special day is absurd.

OP agrees, and he's thinking of breaking the engagement.

They talked, and OP asked why Sarah was so against OP's sister being a groomsman.

Sarah still wasn't giving him a straight answer.

He also asked why she was uncomfortable with his close relationship with his sister, and Sarah implied that the siblings were acting unlike any other siblings she had seen.

As a great brother, OP has already been doing this to make sure his sister doesn't feel like she ruined her brother's potential marriage.

They ended things, and OP's sister will move in with him for the meantime to recover from this ordeal.

Some relationships are not just meant to last, no matter how many tantrums you throw or bathrooms you lock yourself in. From the looks of it, OP impossibly dodged a homing missile when his fiancé showed her true colors.

His sister is lucky to have a sibling such as OP who is willing to stand up for her. They will surely lead better and happier lives now that the immature fiancé is out of the picture.

May this kind of wedding drama stay far away from everyone else.

Sarah’s bathroom lockout and family pressure is intense, but see how one groom shut down his sister’s wedding drama after engagement party chaos.
