Sister books the same wedding venue I wanted to get married at

Anonymous
This is SO petty but I am so angry this morning. A few years ago I could not get married at my dream wedding venue as it was too expensive for my husband and I.

My sister is wedding planning and has decided she will get married there. She knew how sad I was so I am so angry and annoyed that she would do this to me!

I could not have it so sister should not have it either?
Maybe she thought you would like to be there for her wedding? Maybe she did it for you?

So the world revolves around you and your feelings about something that was supposed to happen YEARS ago?

You can still have an event there. Lol. Renew your vows the week before? Kidding. I’m sorry. I understand it’s painful (and obnoxious) right now - consider it a hat tip to your good taste, but later.

Are you already married? If so, you have NO reason to be upset. This is just petty as you said. You have 2 choices. You can be mad, sulk, etc and throw cold water on your sister's wedding, or you can attend her wedding and enjoy the venue AND her happy day, without having to pay for it. You're not getting married again, right? So your ship has sailed. Accept that and be happy for her, or don't go. But grow up either way.

You need to grow up.

Yeah seems kinda thoughtless of her, since she knew how sad you were not to be able to be married there, but you’ll get over it.

Um...yeah, get over yourself.

Be mad for an hour then let it go. Please don’t mention it to her.

OP here. Also her wedding decor pinterest board is a copycat of mine.

How am I not supposed to be annoyed?

Understand being upset about it, process it and give yourself time to work though it... but don't mention it to her. Who knows her reasons, etc. Focus on what you can control, your emotions and your reaction. Sounds tough, but you can do it!

Because you’re an adult. Maybe be flattered? I’m sorry you’re annoyed but this is very petty of you

If you loved it so much, chances are it's a really gorgeous location, and she wants it for the same reasons. I would not think that a married person could get offended at someone else using their dream venue, but wow you proved me wrong.

You don't sound old enough to be married. Stop embarrassing yourself

She likes your taste!

She wants to minimize effort since you've already done the research.

Do you have other issues with her? b/c if this is an isolated incident I'd think you're incredibly childish and immature.
