Here it is, short and less dramatic version...
My FH and I have been engaged since July 2015. We had a date set (and let our family know) by August for our October 2016 in Atlanta, GA . My family is all from NJ. My little(!) brother got engaged Christmas 2015 (practically AT my engagement party...) and just this past weekend set his date with his FW..... exactly a month before mine.
Problem is, FH and I have budgeted down to nearly the last penny to be able to throw the wedding WE want to throw and now have to pay $500 for flights and take off work because its a FRIDAY wedding. So not only am I feeling jipped and pushed aside by my own brothers' decisions, but to top it off I have been "bridesmaid proposed" to with a box in the mail... I was planning on saying no if I were asked simply because of budgetary and timing reasons due to my OWN plans (that have been set in stone for 5 months now) but I feel like the gift is making it hard to say no... WHAT DO I DO! HELP!
