Wedding ceremonies are very special and memorable events to everyone. So, planning a wedding can be stressful, especially when you want to keep it private and intimate. m_abbatello was planning for her outdoor mountainside wedding for over a year and it happening in two weeks. She invites close family members only 9 people to ensure a private and intimate ceremony. The family members who are invited are flying in from out of state. Parents and other close friends were not invited but they will attend the grand reception later. They rented a house, hired a private chef, and arranged everything carefully by headcount. Everyone was so excited for this special week.
The trouble starts when her 42 years old brother insisted her to include his new girlfriend and her 8 years old son in the wedding plans. When m_abbatello said no he threatened her to skip the wedding. After some discussion it was agreed that she can come after the ceremony.
The situation gets worse when m_abbatello’s brother said that his girlfriend not only joins them for ceremony but she also brings her 8 years old son to the rental house. He also demands for an outing with m_abbatello’s other brother and his kids so they get to know each other. m_abbatello finds it inappropriate to introduce a young child to the family under such circumstances.
She completely understands her brother’s excitements about his new relationship, but his demands are problematic. Her brother’s reaction makes her feel that she is being so rude and unreasonable.

Let’s finds out what the AITA community says about this story:
9. You are not wrong, but it is strange your family and close friends are not invited. But you need to talk to your brother and explain to him that his new girlfriend cannot come in this close family event.
10. You should just say we’ll miss you and avoid all the drama.
11. His relationship is so new he should not be asking for a plus one for such a private event.
12. He is just very excited and also new to the relationship. But it is your special moment not a family gets together. So, its okay he asks but he should respect your decision.
13. You are not at fault. He invited someone without getting permission, which is wrong. And even crazier that she wants to come in such a close family wedding event with someone she barely knows.
