So I (28F) was invited to my sister’s, let’s call her Emily, (30F) wedding. The thing is my sister is the golden child and you all know what Golden Children are. My whole life has been around her. My parents are constantly comparing us and I’m fed up, to be honest.

Her wedding is the last straw. Turns out she left my husband Jake (29M) out of the wedding. She said there weren’t enough places but my other sister’s husband has been invited. I was fuming and considered not to attend, but my parents threatened me to cut me off if I did it, so I sucked it up and attend the wedding.

When I was there, I found out the real reason my husband was uninvited. He is a professional chef, the best I’ve ever met and my sister asked her to cook the menu for free because “family helps family”. Jake obviously refused it, so my sister and parents forbade him to attend and asked a friend of her to cook it. The friend is a terrible cook and no one liked it the food.

Saying I was raging was an understatement, so I phone my husband and told him to bring McDonald’s when the dance started. When he arrived with the burger, The Imperial March was sounding, since my sister and BIL chose it as the dance song. I did it purposely.

My parents and sister were so angry that they kicked us out from the wedding and all my family was bombarding me the phone accusing me of being petty, jealous and not let my sister shine at her wedding. I told them to go kick rocks and block all of them. Only my other sister was on my side.

However, days later I think if I overreacted. My family has ostracised my husband and I for good. I don’t really care, but, AITA?
