Aunt’s wedding

Ugh that is so annoying! Why ask basically to be invited to someone's wedding if you won't do the same and invite them? She sounds like a peach

Yikes, sounds like some basic ettiquite is missing! Some people just genuinely don't understand why those things are put in place, and it sounds like she doesn't understand because she thinks the day is only about her and not about her guests in the slightest. Of course the bride and groom should be highlighted, but goodness your guests came to celebrate with you and they matter!

Sounds like something you wouldn't want to go to anyway, OP. Sorry she kind of invited herself to yours and couldn't extend an invitation!

What craziness!!! My cousin recently was married she became quickly engaged to a guy she met, my cousin is in her late 40's she's never worked a day in her life has a handful and more of children and is a loud, complain about everything person. I became engaged before she did and she was not very publicly happy for me, no Facebook shout-outs, etc. As soon as she proposed to the guy, yeah I know, she started tagging me on all sorts of things for weddings and bachelorette parties and other things. I am usually quiet on social media so I just ignored it all. She literally sent one invitation per person, my mother, sister and myself were living together at the moment and she sent 3 invites to the same address for the same people basically. She began telling people that although she was moving out of state right after the wedding that she didn't want wedding gifts instead cash. Other family members were telling us about how she would persistently call and text them saying things like hello, how are you? I hope you're well. God Bless. (things she never did before) and would then start with oh I need to find someone to pay for the champagne for the toast because no one wants to pay for it......... (silence)............... !! Or something like, I am so frustrated someone was going to cook all of the food for my wedding maybe like 60 or 80 people for free because I don't have the money to do it. Finally her Fiances family arrives from out of state about 2 weeks before the wedding only to find out that my cousin and her soon to be hubby were broke and had not planned absolutely anything. The only reasons that they had invitations go out was because FH sister had offered to pay for them. Sister of future hubby planned, paid and ran the entire wedding. Sadly as I was leaving she complained to me about every single thing that those kind people did for her, she told me to make sure my wedding was 100 times better than hers. It really broke my heart, I personally know the amount of work, stress, sacrifices that one makes to make something special like this come true and here is someone so ungrateful that had everything done for them and paid not one cent of the costs back just throw all of that away like if it mattered nothing to her. **Karma though is a big B***c my cousin is now living in a room of her hubbys sisters house and hubbys sister is very much pushing them to get the heck out of there and be on their own feet. Needless to say she's not getting invited, you don't want bad vibes on your special day. I may have gotten off track but I think it makes sense.

Well, it sure sounds iike you are lucky you didn't make the invite list!
