My Niece Uninvited Me From Her Wedding the Night Before — Then Blamed Me for Ruining Everything
We like to think that marriage within the family is a great way to expand on family and build new relationships, but that’s not always the case. Sometimes the person we feel happy for ends up stabbing us in the back. One of our readers shared her experience with this.
My entire family has been looking forward to my niece’s wedding. Even though we knew she couldn’t invite everyone, we were happy for her. I was one of the lucky ones who got invited and since I was going I agreed to help her with a few things.
My niece couldn’t afford much so she was having a small ceremony with only her nearest and dearest. And she was trying to cut costs wherever possible. So I agreed to bring a cake with me, since the bakery on my street was very well priced.
The wedding took place last weekend. A day before, my niece called to tell me that I was no longer invited. I was shocked and even though I tried to hide it, she could hear it in my voice. “It was a tough decision, but there’s a catering issue, and we have to trim down the guest list,” she said.
It stung and even though I tried to be understanding, it still hurt. I told her it was okay. That I understood and respected her choice. She seemed relieved, but then she mentioned the cake that I was supposed to bring with.
