'My sister uninvited my boyfriend and twins from her wedding because we're not married'

A woman was left fuming after finding out her sister had uninvited her boyfriend of ten years and two kids from her wedding. The mum-of-two took to Reddit to explain her older sister is getting married in two weeks time and she had been getting ready to be Maid of Honour but the recent incident has seen her pull out from the wedding.

In the post, the woman, who decided to remain anonymous, said: "Her wedding is in 2 weeks time, I was meant to be a Maid of Honour and had my final dress fitting and everything about a week ago.

"Because I'm her only sister the bride said she couldn't imagine anyone else wearing the Maid of Honour dress."

All had been going to plan with the wedding until some news left the mum shocked and upset.

She explained: "Last week I found out that neither my boyfriend nor my twins are invited to the wedding as my sister has cancelled their invitations (the wedding is not child free since her kids and our nephews and nieces are going to be there).

"When I have asked her what is wrong she said she doesn't feel comfortable having my boyfriend at her wedding because we are still not married and since the twins were born outside of marriage, they can't come in too."

The mum-of-two was furious with her sister and stated that she too has children 'out of wedlock' from a previous relationship. But the sister would still not them come to the wedding.

"She said she 'understood her sins and is working to redeem them', but her word is final," explained the author.

"So me along with a few others bridesmaids have pulled out from the wedding and told her we will not be coming since she decided to uninvite our boyfriends and kids.

"I have also said I will not be giving back my Maid of Honour dress either since I have fully paid for it and for all the fittings."

Many were quick to support the mum-of-two author as one person wrote: "So they were invited, and you made plans, then she “uninvited” them? Does this apply to all guests? That’s your dress. You paid for it? It’s yours."

While another said: "That’s cruel of her. Especially to uninvite at the last minute. "
