Woman Offers To Host Family’s Wedding, Changes Her Mind After Bridezilla Shows Her True Colors

A wedding can make or break a family.

A wedding is a significant event that can have long-term implications for family dynamics. It can either strengthen relationships and bring loved ones closer together, or it can expose underlying tensions and cause rifts that are difficult to heal. A wedding’s planning and execution can reflect the family’s values and priorities, setting the tone for future interactions and relationships. Even minor details, such as who sits where and with whom, can have a long-term impact on how your family member treats you in the future.

I wish social interactions, such as weddings, didn’t have to be so complicated, but this is one of the reasons why bridezillas exist and the worst side of everyone comes out when it comes to weddings. I understand that there is a lot of pressure and responsibility to do everything perfectly when it comes to wedding planning, but that is no excuse to trample on everyone else’s feelings and boundaries. But that’s exactly what one bridezilla did after OP generously lent her property to her cousin so she could hold a rustic wedding there.

Hosting someone’s wedding at your house sounds quite hectic.

OP got married to the love of her life a year ago, and they have both renovated their dream home to perfection.

OP’s family and her cousin’s family are quite close, but the same cannot be said for OP and her cousin themselves.

OP’s cousin is also getting married, and while her husband works an average job, they do want to throw a huge wedding.

It is ultimately their decision as to how big of a wedding they want, but they also want help from their families.

OP and his husband eloped, and they had a very intimate reception at their house, which sounds beautiful with a natural pond and is situated in the middle of the woods.

While it is a beautiful space, it is not as big as it may sound and isn’t fit for a huge wedding.

However, OP was nice enough to give it to her cousin and even invited her over to talk about the reception.

OP was very clear about what the cousin was allowed to do with her space, and her house was off-limits.

OP’s mom has access to her house as well, and she told her cousin to only come in when her mother was there, even if they were out travelling.

One day, OP came to learn through her mother that the cousin had decided on a bigger wedding and wanted to use the space within the house as well.

OP’s mother was very clear that some areas were off-limits, but that only upset the cousin, and now the cousin’s mom is calling OP selfish and spoiled.

OP’s husband does not want to open his home to such disrespectful and ungrateful people and wants to revoke the invitation.

This is why the OP is on Reddit, asking if she will be in the wrong if she rescinds her invitation to host the wedding at her house.

In an update, the cousin is now apparently okay with hosting a smaller reception, but the OP isn’t sure about it anymore.

Don’t get me wrong; I understand that pressure can get to you and you may make a decision that you later regret, but the OP wasn’t vague. The OP was very clear about what was acceptable and where her cousin could hold the wedding. It wasn’t like the OP cancelled the wedding on a whim. Her cousin disregarded what OP had told her in the first place.

Did the cousin really believe she could get away with it? This demonstrates how entitled some people really are. I hope OP does not allow her to have a wedding at her home because this is not going to end well for her.

The cousin and her mother do indeed sound very entitled.

I do wonder if they would get everything cleaned up or whether it would fall upon OP.

The cousin doesn’t sound like a very respectful person to me.

The cousin intentionally stepped upon OP’s boundaries, and that is never okay.

This is entitled behaviour at its finest.
