She Got Kicked Out Of Her Brother’s Wedding After He Said Her Dress Was Too Flashy, Yet He Still Expected A Wedding Gift
This 26-year-old woman’s brother Jake, who is 30, recently tied the knot. But unfortunately, there was a lot of drama at his wedding, and she actually wound up getting kicked out!
For some context, while they were kids, she and Jake were pretty close. Then, as they grew up, they drifted apart and had different values.
“Jake has always been a bit more conservative, while I’ve always been more into fashion and expressing myself,” she said.
She is actually engaged, too, to her own 32-year-old fiancé named Jason. Apparently, Jason also loves buying her new dresses and helping her feel stunning.
So, after she received her invitation to Jake and his fiancée Emily’s wedding, she was super excited and wanted to select the perfect dress.
But, her brother’s wedding had a dress code of “formal eveningwear,” and after seeing that, her fiancé Jason claimed that he had the perfect gown for her.
He’d bought her a dress and was planning to save it for their own engagement party. However, Jason ultimately decided to give her the dress early so she could wear it to her brother’s wedding.
“It wasn’t white or anything. It was a deep emerald green with a slit that came up to my mid-thigh and off-the-shoulder sleeves,” she explained.
She loved it as well and showed up wearing the dress on the day of her brother’s nuptials. She also arrived early to help set up and mingle with her family.

Yet, while she thought everything was going well, her brother ended up pulling her aside, saying that her dress was “too flashy,” and accusing her of drawing too much attention to herself.
“I was shocked. He said it was Emily’s special day, and I was stealing the spotlight,” she recalled.
At that point, she offered to wear a shawl over her dress or tone down her makeup. But her brother refused to budge and said that unless she found something else to wear, she couldn’t stay at the wedding.
She had no other outfit options, either, so she was forced to leave the wedding in tears. After that, Jake and his now-wife Emily went on their honeymoon without another word. Still, once they returned home, they hit her with a shocking question.
More specifically, they asked where her wedding gift was!
“I told them that because I wasn’t at their wedding, I wasn’t giving them a gift,” she revealed.
Jake didn’t take that well, accused her of being selfish, and said she was just punishing him for something that was “already over and done with.”
Her parents have since taken her brother’s side, too, and think she should just “let it go” and buy him and his new wife a gift off of their registry.
Nonetheless, she just doesn’t want to give them anything after getting kicked out of their wedding, and she’s not sure if that makes her a jerk or not.
How would you feel if your own sibling kicked you out of their wedding? Do you think asking for a wedding gift after that is ridiculous or not? How would you have reacted in this situation?
