My sister in law asked me to be chief bridesmaid and the kids to be flower girls/pageboys
That was fine
What wasn’t fine is the fact she turned into bloody bridezilla
Her mindset seemed to be ‘I want this that and the other but I don’t want to pay for it-it’s my day and everyone else should pay for it’
She forced/guilt tripped me into buying outfits in one colour-then changed her mind (I almost got into debt)
Had me running round town for her-at my own cost-for whatever it was she wanted that day
I could fill the thread with everything but you get the idea-this went on for 9 months-every bloody day brought new demands at a cost to either me or someone else as she wanted it all for free
So anyway-I had to sort the hen do
At the time I was a single mum to 6 so not had loads of spare cash-I was also bringing up kids/school/nursery runs/collage/working part time
I organised a lovely day at a spa (her idea)
I got (forced) all her mates to cough up as I didn’t have the money to pay upfront and some of em thought I’d sub them-I’m talking about 12 hens and over two grand (I paid almost £300 out of my own money on top of everything else I was forced to pay for)
Went to a lot of trouble to sort all this out and make her day special-in fact I made myself ill over the stress of it all
She then uninvited me on the day-an hour before we where due to set off for this spa day cos ‘you’ll find it hard to get childcare’ (I had in fact sorted childcare) and invited a mate of hers to take my place at my expense-she hadn’t lifted a finger to sort any of this apart from to ring me all the sodding time with more demands
so on the day itself I stood on her dress (accidentally) and tore it a tiny bit-I’m talking a few stitches
She screamed at me for being ‘an idiot’ and how ‘she could just punch me’
I made it to the wedding breakfast without punching her-(tempted tho) then I saw red-and I stole their wedding cake-snuck it out the building and gave it to my kids for breakfast the following morning
We don’t speak anymore...
