After all, who would blame you? It's just difficult to plan a wedding but still, the OP of today's story ended up fighting with her sister over it.

The OP doesn't like surprises, so her now husband revealed he was going to propose at her birthday party. OP told her four bridesmaids then, including her sister.

Before then, Kayla had said that she would never marry again, but a week before OP's party, guess who announced her boyfriend had proposed? You guessed right, and that was just the beginning.
