Woman Kicks ‘Goth’ Sister Out of Wedding for Ruining $300 Dress
A lady on Reddit kicked her “goth” sister out of her wedding immediately after she allegedly “ruined” her $300 flower girl dress.
“I got married last weekend. My sister is 16. I personally do not like her style of dressing, it is very gothic/emo (really I don’t know how to describe it, very dark colors with spiked jewelry or skulls) but I don’t care what she wears almost any other day,” the lady wrote in her post in the Am I The A–hole forum.
She explained that initially she did not consist of her sister in the wedding mainly because they are “not very close” but her sister was “upset” to be excluded.
“I decided to give her the part of flower girl since my now husband was having his younger brother be the ring bearer. She was excited and very picky about her formal wear. Originally she wanted to wear her [usual] outfits but I told her she can’t be part of the wedding party if she does,” she stated.

“We went to six different store[s] to find something she was comfortable in. In the end we got a dark green long dress. I spend time helping her pick out jewelry that would match her style and not be over the top. I spent so much time to make sure she was comfortable and still expressing her style in a tasteful manner,” she continued.
She added that the dress expense $300 and that they also discussed suitable makeup appears for her sister mainly because she did not want to get her makeup carried out by the hired artist.
The two reached an agreement and each have been “happy” with the compromises.
“The day of my wedding my mom comes in upset to my dressing room. My sister cut up the dress and put fishnets in all of the holes. Basically she cut it so the top looks like a crop top, her midsection had a fishnet, the bottom was short and had holes. She also has boots on and her jewelry was very bold,” the lady revealed.
When asked why she changed the dress, the sister stated she “didn’t like [it] anymore.”
The 16-year-old was asked to transform various occasions and refused.
“I told her she needs to change or she needs to leave. My mom backed me up on this. She refused, I asked mom to take her home. She took her home,” the lady stated.
“The wedding went on without her. Apparently my sister has been crying since for missing the wedding. She thinks I am a huge jerk. I am also still very annoyed she ruined a dress I spent 300 dollars on and spent so much time to make her comfortable,” she went on.
Reddit commenters agreed with the bride’s choice to kick her sister out of the wedding for altering the dress and refusing to transform.
“She was being an immature brat,” a single particular person wrote.
“You did your best on a compromise you thought you both were happy with. It’s not like you were forcing her to dress completely out of her style,” a person else stated.
The lady replied, “What drives me insane is that she literally picked this dress.”
“I think you went above and beyond to try and accommodate her in a way that would meet both of your desires. I mean, a dark green gown really appeals to my hidden, inner goth queen myself, tbh,” yet another particular person added.
