‘My Sister Won’t Invite My Husband To Her Wedding Because He’s In A Wheelchair’
Weddings are meant to be celebrations of love while in the midst of the people you most care about, the ones who support you the most on this planet. However, family drama can pop up even in the run-up to what’s supposed to be someone’s happiest day in their life. Sometimes… it’s the bride who’s at fault.
Redditor u/FungalBroth went on the AITA community for a verdict on whether or not she was in the wrong to consider not going to her sister’s wedding. You see, the redditor’s sister didn’t send her disabled husband an invitation. According to the bride-to-be, she didn’t want the wheelchair-bound man to be in the family photos. Supposedly, he would “stand out” and “take attention away from her.”
You can read the full story, in the post author’s own words, below. When you’re done, let us know in the comments what you think about this entire bizarre situation and what you would have done in this particular case.
Bored Panda reached out to Anna and Sarah from The Wedding Society for a few comments about family disputes before weddings and how to move past them, as well as why discrimination of any sort is not okay, under any circumstances, even if it’s linked to a bride’s request. Read on for what they had to say.
A woman was furious that her disabled husband didn’t get invited to her sister’s wedding for a frankly ridiculous reason

Here’s the story in full, dear Pandas. Odds are that this will make you very mad
It’ll probably surprise none of you Pandas that the AITA community was overwhelmingly supportive of the woman and her husband, not the sister. As some redditors put it, this was definitely an issue that was worth fighting for. It wasn’t something to simply let go of.
The bride-to-be said that her sister’s husband could come to the wedding on the condition that he wasn’t in any of the photos. Probably the most heart-rending part was the fact that the family has known and liked him for years and that the husband was even prepared to make the sacrifice, so long as they could go to the celebration together.
Anna, from The Wedding Society, told Bored Panda that when it comes to family disputes, everyone has to do their part to reconcile. “Family disputes really require the work of everyone involved to remember the bigger picture and work towards a higher goal, and also to remember their love for each other above everything else.”
According to The Wedding Society, marrying couples can have expectations that “others might consider strange,” and that’s all fine and dandy, as long as they don’t cross any obvious boundaries. “It’s their day and they’re allowed to be a little more particular than those around them. Just try to understand how long some people have been envisioning their day and remember that some particulars really mean more to them than might seem normal to you,” Anna said. However, it’s vital to stress the fact that under no circumstances should discrimination be allowed.
“That said, the line needs to be drawn at discrimination,” Anna told Bored Panda. “It is never okay, no matter the occasion or circumstance, to discriminate against anyone of any race, age, color, gender, or ability. If that occurs, a kind, honest and firm discussion needs to take place in order to stand up for the person or people being discriminated against.”
Here’s what some people thought about the entire situation. The author of the post replied to quite a few comments
While it makes sense to invite your closest family members and their spouses (unless there’s some major drama or toxicity going on there, of course), you can’t invite every single one of your friends, acquaintances, and colleagues. Unless you’ve got an unlimited budget. Though most do not. What this means is being selective about who makes the cut and gets a formal invitation to your wedding and those who, unfortunately, won’t be participating.
“Please remember that you don’t have to ever explain yourself to anyone. It’s your day and your choice,” Anna and Sarah from The Wedding Society previously told Bored Panda that the happy couple shouldn’t feel guilty about restricting guest lists when it comes to acquaintances.
“There are a hundred reasons why you might have to restrict numbers and none of them are anyone else’s business,” they said that the couple shouldn’t have to feel like they have to explain themselves over every tiny decision. “Simply saying, ‘As much as we’d love to have all our loved ones be with us on the day, our numbers are restricted so we hope to celebrate with those who can’t be there at another time’ is enough.
Anna and Sarah added that one thing that ought to change for sure is the culture of expecting cash and other gifts during weddings which has turned them into business transactions of a sort. “We really need to change the focus and intention around wedding celebrations in our culture. Your wedding is about you and the person you are marrying, nothing else. Don’t base your guest list on what you’ll get from them—it’s just tacky and wrong,” they shared.
“Invite your loved ones because you want them to be surrounding you both and change the narrative in your head about what you are owed from them. You’re the one throwing a party and asking them to be there. Their presence should be enough. Anything they gift you on top of that is exactly that—a gift.”
They continued: “That said, if you are the guest and cash is your gift of choice, consider what the marrying couple have invested to have you there—if you are accepting the invitation, do so on the condition of gifting them at least what it cost them to include you.”

What is it about weddings that awakens the narcissist in women (and statistically it's nearly always the bride)? Is this just a western society thing? Am I missing part of my self that lets me identify with these witches? Most of my favourite pictures from my own wedding day don't feature me at all! And those that do have my husband right there beside me as my partner.
The wedding industry has spent a fortune into brainwashing people into thinking that weddings are a big deal and get people to spend massive amounts of money on a stupid single celebration instead of saving their money for a home, kids college funds, a business, a vacation or anything else that's more useful in life. Hollywood is also carrying a big portion of the blame.

That's not being bridezila... It's being a shitty human being! A love my sister so much and her husband and if I was in this kind of situation I would organize my wedding in a way that I would be sure that my sister's husband could easily attend
Exactly! This is beyond being a bridezilla! This is total lack of whatever makes us human. And I have seen a wedding where everything was (lovingly) modified and adjusted for the needs of one of their cousins who was in a wheelchair.

Why do brides need so much f*****g attention?? You're getting married, entering a union and partnership, not winning a Miss Universe pageant! I feel like if society didn't call single women "crazy cat ladies" and put a stigma on them, they wouldn't act this "pick me" and treat marriage like a damn competition.
mostly because the wedding industry says "let's make it about you" and then they make more $.

I am in my aunt's wedding photos and I was in the middle of chemotherapy at the time. She was happy to have me there and given care that people fussed over me at her wedding because she still got to marry her husband and have a great day, and because it's not a competition.
Most weddings are just like that. People need to stop dissing all weddings, just don't go to any that has a bride like that. I

I don' get it - don't you take pictures in different groups anyway. just couple, just with parents, just with close family without significant others. She could have just choosen a picture without him without saying a word. - that being said - it's such a horrible thing to expect someone to be excluded from pictures because he's in a wheelchair and might take some attention away from the bride. in this case, she should just post pictures of herself - problem solved. no other people to take her precious attention
Well, that's the other thing, actually. Wedding photographers know how to work with disabilities, if for no other reason than we have to be careful about interpersonal relationships AND we know what we are seeing behind the lens. The BiL isn't supposed to be in that many shots to begin with AND any decent wedding photographer will simply delete the excess photos OR just crop them a bit.

I've often been that excluded or degraded or abused disabled person, the 'burden' to everyone, but I've never had anyone stand up for me like this wife is. She is so absolutely 100% NTA here that it's sickening to have to even say it. The fact that her family actually treats her like the bad guy, because to them disabled people are just worthless subhuman trash, just unfeeling objects that need to be stomped out of the way, and to stand up for her husband needs an apology, is just... heartbreaking, and way too common and familiar. Why do so many people think this is okay? How are people actually this horrifically shameless in their cruelty and selfishness?
The bride is quite bad enough, but the fact that her family isn't trying to talk some sense into her is utterly deplorable
Load More Replies... OMG that 'I'D SHOW UP IN A WHEELCHAIR' comment made my day. If I were her, that's what I'd do!
The woman getting married sounds like such an insecure airhead. Her soon to be husband must be taking mental notes on how to take advantage of her derpiness in the future cause I've seen it happen b4. What a child.
If I were the 'soon-to-be-husband' , I'd worry ( a lot) about what would happen if I were to become disabled or godforbid one of the kids is born disabled. What then?

As a full time wheelchair user this makes me both mad and sad. So much so I can't form a proper reply
Lol! Does this woman think people want to look at her wedding album? Friends over for drinks? Break out the album! Boss for dinner? Show him the album! Oy.
I know, right?! I've never looked at anyone's wedding album other than my own parents'.

Like she can't just floof out her dress in front of his chair? Heck if it were my wedding, I'd demand all photos be taken of us sitting so no one is below anyone else!
If I were the prospective spouse of the sister, I'd be disgusted. It would also cross my mind to have some concern about her reaction if I became differently abled or our potential children were other than perfect. . My advice to OP, go to the wedding with your wonderful husband, making every effort to look spectacular. Professional makeup and hair, etc. Be happy, knowing your husband is twice the person your sister is.
Easy solution. Don't go, cut out everyone from your life who had the gall to side with your sister, and move on happily with your wonderful husband.
I wouldn’t go either. She’s being ableist. Also the fact that— depending on if this is an option for them— they could always help him into a chair for a few photos of it’s such a problem. They shouldn’t have to and I’d still be annoyed but at least everyone can go. Clearly this sister didn’t even try to think of alternatives besides complete exclusion. Also, they’re married. If people asked where her husband was she’d have to explain that her sister didn’t want him to come because he’d “steal the attention from her”. That’s just BS.
Go to the wedding! How else can you hear whether she includes "... in sickness and in health" in the vows, and laugh loudly either way???
What is wrong with bridezillas and their constant need for feeling unique and noticed on their wedding day? I put equal effort in choosing the groom's outfit, if not bigger, because his suit and cardigan were tailored (also same shade of white as my dress, because I wanted him to equally stand out) and my dress was the first one I tried on. If getting married to your loved one doesn't make you feel special enough, there is something very wrong with you. And treating a disabled relative in such a way... I am beyond finding the right insult for this woman...
How about...Idiotic brain-damaged booger-pickin' chicken butt. ;)

There was a groomzilla one - the groom insisted that his fiance return her $400 gown (paid with her own money). Luckily, she refused and many people advised her to keep the dress and chuck the controlling asshole.

Here in India we never have perfect wedding. In the sense that we want all of the invites to come though in wheelchair,old age,disability whatever. We even try to bring our great grand parents by carrying them in chairs if we don't have wheelchair. All the family should be there no excuse and in pics too.
I am going to be very blunt. Your sister should be ashamed of herself and as for the rest of the family, what is wrong with them. Weddings are about the coming together of friends and family to see a couple married and to join in their happiness of their union, not how perfect everyone looks. I am disgusted by her attitude and even that of family members. Even if she had a complete change of heart, though obviously is too immature to do so I would not attend the wedding on principle. Stand up for both of you firmly and proudly
The sister is a horrible person. Did she call all of her family members to bitch about the OP?? I ask because they are calling the OP to make her apologize. If I were in a similar situation I would not attend the wedding. Better leave the sister to explain why her sister and husband are not in the picture than go and the OP explain why is she in the pictures without her husband.
It's not about the wedding it's about the marriage. I give it six months.
Horrible bitch. I'll give her marriage 6 months to a year. She's too selfish to think of others. Pray god she doesn't get children !!!
I never understand bridezillas who are obsessed with having all the attention. Sounds shallow and immature. It's about joining two families together, not making everything perfect. I don't get why other family members who support these bridezillas when it's so clear brides are in the wrong. I wouldn't go and probably distance myself from those who are willing to co-sign that BS. Toxic family.
NTA. Your sister behaviour is unacceptable and makes me question which is easier to believe, that this story is fake? Or awful people like do exist in this horrible world?
Unfortunately for us, awful people really exist. :(

1. That's stupid are rude 2. If it's SUCH a problem do pictures where everyone is sitting
Wait, wouldn't people ask MORE questions if EVERYONE was in a wheelchair? I feel that in 2021, most people know what wheelchairs are now...
Usually with these things I am very skeptical that this actually happened, just someone making up a story to be a Victim and get likes. This one I believe, because it's the type of insanity that happens with Instagram narcissists
A couple we regularly double-dated with dropped us instantly when my husband started using a wheelchair.
My immediate thought is this is a prank. (Her screen name is fungalbroth? May we please?) I can't imagine that this is not a joke. Inventing the most vile sister/bride possible and asking wedding etiquette of the masses. Come on! Even someone THIS vain would never be so socially suicidal as to cop to this. I don't think it's possible for anyone to be this arrogant and this ignorant both.
This type of awful behavior happens all the time at weddings. This isn't a stretch.

Lol what is it with weddings that brings the absolute c**t out of people?
Your sister is a major c**t and your family is equally c**tty. Don't go at all and remove yourself from your family as they support toxic behavior. Also your sister's husband should run! And fast!
Some people care more about the wedding than the marriage. If you're engaged to one of those run. Run fast, run far.
NTA!!! The only a-hole here is your sister! She is the one who owe you and your husband an apology.
Wtf, he can't be there because people ask about him being in a wheelchair? Then people need to stop asking about him being in a wheelchair and start minding their own damn business.
I don't know whether to believe these stories anymore because I just can't imagine having people in my life that are this awful. Some of my relatives are selfish self-centered people, but they would never behave this way. What makes these situations even sadder is the fact that people try to excuse the rude person's behavior and that is why they continue to do what they do.
well, there is a solution to him being the 'ONLY ONE IN A WHEELCHAIR'' ya know..
If it was my sister, I would simply never talk to her again. F*cking narcissistic degenerate. Family means nothing at this point. Weddings are supposed to be a heartfelt celebration of two people getting together, not a perfectly performed theatre play...
I 100% agree with all the NTA comments. OP's anger was righteous and her sister is ableist. Moving forward, though, how do the sisters mend this horrible wound the bridezilla has inflicted if the bridezilla doesn't want to change, grow, apologize, and make amends? It's so sad. The bridezilla really wrecked things this time. I hope the OP will keep reaching out so the bridezilla can get to know OP's husband better as a full person and so the bridezilla won't be so dismissive, intimidated, jealous, or whatever twisted issue she has about him. I hope she sees the error of her ways and does the right thing in the future.
I have kicked my mother out of my house for much less than this. Screw the sister and her wedding.
She knows she's NTA. What is with brides wanting everyone to only focus on them. It's not just the bride's day.
Never heard this before or the terrible stories one hears of bridezillas untill they appeared on TV. I think this must be an American thing because I am sure British brides would know they have nothing to worry about and the few that may would have family against them, total selfish idiots.

Let your sister have her damn photos. Go eat her food, drink her wine, enjoy the company of your family and friends. If she doesn't want your husband in the pics, I'm sure he will be relieved not to have to sit there and fake a smile. He can be having fun or whatever else there is to do. I wouldn't worry about it, but I'd NEVER forget it either, and I'd be wary of her in the future. Have the fun. Screw her.
I'd never speak to that ignorant c*nt again in my life. But, on the other hand, I can't understand how someone can be so shallow and useless and her sister not already knowing it and being prepared for it.
Weddings are becoming source of the most ridiculous issues. It's not "perfect photo" competition!
First you do not need to apologize to her, she is letting herself down by throwing an adult tantrum. Let's hope her marriage lasts as long as yours has. Shame on your family for sticking up for her.
Getting someone with this sort of disability to use a prop is not unheard of. But since the bride and her sister are at odds with each other the suggestion itself is probably not worth it to the photographer.
