A woman caused a rift in her family when she did not allow her siblings to attend the wedding due to a lack of seating.

In her Reddit post, she explained that her family lives far away from where she and her husband are getting married and that she hasn’t heard from everyone yet on whether they’re coming or not.

“I (25, female) am getting married to my future husband (28, male) in a month. We can invite a maximum of 70 people. We sent the invitations a few months in advance because my entire family has to drive three hours to our current residence and wedding venue. Two days before the deadline for RSVPs, I decided to send a text message to the last few who hadn’t responded yet,” the woman wrote.

The problem arose, however, when the woman’s biological father announced that he would bring his five children from his current marriage.

“When my biological father (48 M) replied that he was coming with his fiancée (33 F) and their 5 children (ages around 15-3 years), I was a little taken aback because I had specifically addressed the invitation only to ‘Mr. (biological father’s name) and Mrs. (fiancée’s name)’ and not to ‘Mr. (biological father’s name) and family’. The background is important here because I do not have a close relationship with my biological father. I have met my step-siblings a few times and my half-siblings only twice. I also did not invite my mother’s current husband’s children (all 6 are adults, I am not close to them),” she revealed.

The fact that the woman did not invite her siblings angered her father and an argument broke out.

“My biological father is completely freaking out because he can’t bring his kids and the kids are devastated to ‘not be able to see their sister’s wedding.’ I didn’t budge and told him multiple times that I have limited seating and can only feed a limited number of people. He said ‘this is MY proposal’ and offered to come to the ceremony with the uninvited kids and then leave so they can see my wedding and I can ‘save money.’ The wedding is already fully paid for but okay, whatever you say… He said he had to protect the kids – I asked ‘are you forgetting I’m your damn kid too?’ and ended the conversation by telling him that he and his fiancée can come without the kids or not come at all,” she concluded.

In the comments section, users had strong opinions about the situation, with many of them siding with the bride and blaming the father.

“We didn’t invite certain families because we knew they would show up with children, even though they weren’t included in the invitation,” one person said.

“He’s just trying to portray himself as a victim,” another person chimed in.

“While it would have been nice to be more explicit outside of the formal invitation… it’s a small room. There’s not enough space,” another person commented.

“I suspect they won’t be at all devastated that they have virtually no relationship with you. They probably just came for a free meal anyway. You’re probably doing them a favor,” wrote another.
