A bride wants to leave her sister off of her wedding guest list.
Even though she understands the potential consequences of not inviting her sister to her wedding, the bride explained in aposton Reddit’s “Am I the A——?” forum that she intends to exclude her.
“I know not inviting her will destroy any family dynamic we have left. But I don’t want her there,” she wrote.

The bride, 30, is getting married in March. In recent years, her mom died as well as other family members. While her partner of three years has supported her through the deaths, her sister made things much worse.
Her sister’s greediness has led her to a breaking point.
“I’m tired,” the Redditor admitted. “I honestly don’t view her as family anymore because she has never treated me with kindness and has only ever expected handouts.”
The bride was set on not inviting her sister, but her father has led her to second guess her decision.

“My dad told me I need to invite her because family is the only thing that matters and ‘money doesn’t. Why does it matter?’ " she said. “I wasn’t the one demanding more money from every death.”
She asked the forum: “Should I invite her to keep peace or only invite my dad?”

“She clearly is CHOOSING to be horrible. It’s a choice she made: she chose the money. SHE is the one your dad should be lecturing, not you,” one person commented. “OP (original poster), I would say that the only thing that can be hard and that you need to be prepared for is the fact that your dad will probably throw the ‘either you invite her or I will not come’ card. And you need to reflect on how this makes you feel, and what you want to do about it.”
“Your feelings are valid. It’s your special day and you can invite whoever you want,” another Redditor commented in part. “As long as you’re willing to deal with the repercussions of not inviting your sister (and there will be unfortunately), then you should be fine.”
“I think it might be helpful to think long-term on it,” they continued. “In five years, will you wish you invited her, or will you be at peace with your decision on not inviting her? It’s a cliche, but follow your heart.”
