My sister is trying to steal my spotlight, I'm super hurt.

Honestly, if my sister tried to pull that crap, I'd be angry too. And our parents would be angry.

Side note, is your wedding really at 7 in the morning?

A wedding at 7am? You've lost your marbles. I can barely get to work at 8am. No thanks.

I'm usually a supporter of the "you only get one day" thing but with it being your sisters wedding the day after I feel like it's too much. I would be annoyed about it too. If she just announced it though does she realize how quickly things book up for July weddings? She may not even get to book what she wants for that date.

Also, your wedding is at 7 am? That's quite early..

I guess at least she didn't pick the day before yours. Everyone who goes to both will probably be tired at hers. Speaking of which, how much of your guest lists actually overlap?

wait you're getting marrieda at 7am on a friday? they probably won't be tired then unless you're from a culture that does a day-long affair..

My wedding is @7pm in New Orleans hers is in Mississippi

ETA: oops I misread

As the oldest of 5 girls I can't imagine doing that to one of my sisters. Heck my sister got married 2 years ago maybe 3 (I am bad with dates) and I still refused to have mine in even the same MONTH she had hers and we are getting married years apart. That is disrespectful and selfish and I would be upset too. I just don't get that I mean her guests could even be hungover from your wedding during hers and if your family is helping at all financially that is a lot on them.

Taylor- LOL thank you.. haha I didn't even catch that. I read your post and was like, Why is she telling me that?

You guys are the best!! Lol @ 7am I'll be snoring. It's 7pm

Yeah I'd be like "sorry I'm gonna be on my honeymoon/spending them with my new spouse that day so I can't attend. . . "

OP, your other comment says yours is at 7AM and hers is at 11 AM the next day, that's where all the confusion is coming from.

Sounds like your overlapping guests may be too exhausted to attend hers, then!

Okay that makes more sense. That'll be tough for guests, especially if you're having a party atmosphere. I guess she'll just have a lot of no-shows/declines.

Hell, I'd even be bleary-eyed with an 11 am wedding!

Ok OP to be completely honest...if I were your guest, that means I would have already received the STD for your wedding. So if I got one for your sister, for the very next day, I would be judging the hell out of her and sending my regrets to her immediately. I'm not gonna spend all night at a wedding, then wake up to drive 3 hours to make it in time for an 11 am wedding the next day, especially in this situation.

A lot of them may not attend hers then. If you already sent save the dates and yours is at 7, and then hers is at 11 the next day three hours away? The guests will be exhausted and many would choose one or the other.

Which one is local to the majority of mutual guests?

They're already calling me. Asking why is she doing this..

Maybe have a sit down with her and explain that you want her wedding day to be special for her just as you want for yours. Because of the overlapping guest lists, many guests might skip out on her wedding since they are mere hours apart. That might be a better angle to come from than, "Get your own weekend" (which is what I would want to say).

Yes, she is being rude.

This is definitely the exception to the You get "one day rule" It's not fair to your family. They'll be tire as shit, and not to mention you'll be tired as shit! I don't think she thought it through all way. Talk to her and explain that its not a logical date for her to pick.
