So my fiancé and I got engaged after a year, we have been together for a year and a half now. We moved to my home state a few months ago for better careers. We planned our wedding and sent his mom the wedding colors, date, ideas. Everything. (We’ve had awkward moments of her trying to make our quest count larger and change our ideas) anyways.... His sister started re-dating someone from high school a month ago, they’ve had weird issues on and off and got engaged randomly last week. They decided to make their date a month before ours in another state and use our colors. I’m kind of pissed off but at the same time I know we each have our own date. I’ve been working so hard to make this the wedding of both our dreams. I just feel angry and uncomfortable with this. Am I wrong for this? Does anyone have any advice?

You’re not wrong for feeling the way you feel, but honestly it doesn’t do you any good to dwell on it. My MOH got engaged two months ago and is now planning a wedding for a month after ours. I’ve stopped telling her things because somehow they magically become her ideas. It is what it is. Focus on what you can control.

I have a cousin who proposed to her man 2 weeks after my fiancé proposed to me and I’m livid especially since she is planning to have her weeding 3 weeks after mine I understand we get one day but I feel like my wedding is going to be over looked and inadequate, than I remembered that I’m going to have the perfect wedding because it’s my wedding and I get to make all my decisions based on what my fiancé and I want, focous on your wedding you’ll be okay

Stop telling your FMIL things. Especially if she's trying to change it or add to your guest list... but not help pay.
I'm sorry your FSIL is acting this way.
Vent if you need to, but know that most people don't remember color schemes and stuff like that for more than a day or so.

You're not wrong in how you feel but at the same time is it possible that you two have similar taste in colors? I personally wouldn't worry about it Your wedding will be perfect and just focus on your special and beautiful day.

Things like this happen, unfortunately. I would stop talking about wedding details with FMIlL. My best friend got engaged months after me; she got married two months later; AND will have a vow renewal before my FH and I get married. At first, I was shocked but there isn’t anything I can do. They had their reasons for choosing a short engagement we have our reasons for choosing a long engagement.
