Getting married is about the bride and groom and bringing two families together.

Does no one teach decency any more. And no I'm not a grandma.

According to OP there is one brother and one sister (OP). That could never be described as lopsided.

And who the eff cares about the bride and who’s important to her, right?

Again, it’s a mature life lesson. If you really mean your vows, this person will be in your life forever, and you’re going to slight them so your sorority sister that you see once a year can be in your wedding party because you want your bachelorette party to be so lit!

Maybe OP’s brother doesn’t care all the at much about OP being in their lives forever.

I would hope her future husband’s family is important to her!!!

Get over it, OP.

I’m not the OP, idiot. The OP said thanks and left several pages ago.

No, it's not. In fact nowhere in your vows does it say anything about that, at all. Marriage is about two people starting their own family together. Again, I'm sure you're the type of SIL who just can't stand that her dear brother is making another woman his priority now.

OP said thank and good bye pages ago, you idiot. She agreed it was no big deal and chalked it up to being older than the bride.

Jesus, people, read and try to comprehend before posting!

You are ridiculous. If anything, be pissed you weren’t included on the grooms side. My best friend was a groomswoman at her brothers wedding and I’ve seen this a lot. If you’re important to the groom’s side, he should have you there. Don’t expect to usurp her friends.

Stop. You're making a huge leap. Bride has her own friend or cousin or someone close to her. You have no idea and no basis to belittle who she has chosen as her attendant.

Someone with any mature life lesson would counsel OP to give grace, not automatically assume ill intent or slight, and be relieved.

I wasn't asked to be in my brother's bridal party. I didn't mind one bit.

+1. At the end of the day, OP’s brother did not think it was important to include her. That’s on him, not his future wife.

Yeah, one of her best friends at age 24 that she won’t speak to by the time she’s 35. 🙄 This a life lesson for this bride. Your spouse to be has 1 sibling, you include that person in the wedding, because if you are lucky that person will be in your life forever, as opposed to the fleeting friendships of your early 20s.

DP. Maybe you can't hold on to friends, but some of us can.

I’m calling BS, most people who are between the ages of 35-55 do not have a cadre of friends whom they have been friends with since their early 20s.

I realize that the typical DCUM poster considers her kids' friends' parents and her work colleagues to be her best "friends," but that doesn't apply to all of us.

Sure, but most people who are 45 are not still friends with the people they were tight with when they were 25.

I initially thought she didn't want you to come to the wedding!

Not being part of that ridiculous nonsense called the bridal party is a relief, OP. You can just show up as a guest without lifting a finger! And if someone dares to ask for your help, you can just shrug and say you can't, because you're not in the bridal party...

Win-win.
