| If you can't afford things, no one else is allowed to have them? So everyone in your family will have a smaller house than you in a less desirable location. No one will have more kids than you could comfortably afford. All vacations will be vetted by you to ensure that they are a notch below yours in luxury level. Sounds like a plan. |
| Divorce your DH and steal your sister's fiance! |
| Dog in the manger. I don't understand why you're be annoyed (wistful, sure, but annoyed and angry?) by something that doesn't injure you in any way. If you can't have something, no one can? |
OP here. I feel like my sister simultaneously tries to one-up me and also copy me at the same time. Its not like she actually compliments me or gives me credit. She is like my shadow I can't get rid of. |
| Tell your sister so she can decide if she she wants you there telling everyone "this was my dream venue!/she copied my pinterest!" and generally pissing on the fun. |
Credit for what? You didn't build the venue, you just wanted to rent it. Like probably thousands of other people. I bet if you bitch about her "stealing" your venue and pinterest boards (LOL) you might be able to get rid of your "shadow." |
You sound more and more ridiculous with each post |
| Imitation is the best form of flattery? |

Is she prettier than you? Is she marrying a well off guy or into a well off family? I feel like this isn't just about the venue and your pinterest.
This sounds like a life of jealousy coming to a head. |
+1 Get over it. |
There was a whole episode of The Office about this and I was 100% team Pam. |
| Take some time to grieve, then let it go. She won’t change. It you’ll be able to enjoy a beautiful day without paying or organizing it. You can decide how much you want to participate in the forthcoming bridezillary |
Imitation is the biggest form of flattery. |
Can you imagine how pathetic you must be to need to "grieve" your sister getting married at a venue you wanted a few years ago? Like how ridiculous is that? |
OP here. Yes. She is the "pretty one" who is marrying a rich guy. His family is footing the bill. |
