A bride is refusing to move her wedding date for her pregnant sister, who is also her maid of honor.

In a Reddit post from the popular subreddit r/AITA, the bride explained that she had originally planned to get married in July, but she pushed the date back to after her sister got pregnant and began experiencing severe morning sickness. "I need to add that no one asked this of us, but I felt it was needed," she said in the post, adding that she wanted to wait until her sister's sickness hopefully subsided as she got further along in the pregnancy.

The sister, who is also the matron of honor, did eventually improve and the couple began discussing their new date. "Seeing this, my fiancé and I talked about our wedding again," the bride continued, "I had always wanted a summer wedding on the beach, but I didn't want to wait a full year, and seeing winter wedding pictures was slowly growing on me."

They ultimately decided on a December wedding date.

After sending out wedding invitations for the December wedding date, the sister called up the bride, seeming angry "about how inconsiderate I was to not wait until my nephew is born, that her being MOH and 8 months pregnant is going to be hard and that she has already been through hell."

The bride went on to explain that she didn't expect her sister "to go above and beyond" as the MOH. Additionally, she and her fiancé had already rebooked everything for the December date and even offered to pay for the alterations for her sister's dress.

"I'm even taking care of hair and makeup for all my wedding party, a sort of pamper session where we'll all get ready together and take pictures," she continued, adding that all the sister has to do "is show up."

However, "She's having none of it and is demanding we reschedule it again until next summer. I put my foot down and gave her a flat out no." The bride's parents asked her to reconsider, but the bride said that the way her sister's pregnancy is making her feel is no excuse for acting like "a b****."

Reddit users flocked to the comments section, agreeing that the bride was not the AH for keeping the December wedding date. "Being emotional is not an excuse to bully others," one user wrote of the sister's response.

"NTA. Your wedding, your call. Your sister isn’t in a position to make demands about major wedding decisions, especially the logistical nightmare of rescheduling it," another added.

One user pointed out that the bride had already "shown a lot of flexibility and support for [your] sister by rescheduling your wedding once to accommodate her early pregnancy struggles." "You’re making additional efforts to ensure she feels comfortable [and] supported at your wedding, including resizing her dress and arranging a pampering session."

They added that though it's understandable for the sister to feel "overwhelmed," the bride should consider her own "plans and preferences."

"Don't move the new date," another user encouraged. "Your marriage is about you and your husband, not your sister. The wedding shouldn't revolve completely around her either. You've been thoughtful and deliberate both times already. You've done enough."

Someone noted that there could be a way to meet the sister halfway in accommodating her. "I’d suggest talking to her and see exactly what she is upset over and if you can both come to a reasonable compromise (a hotel room put aside for her to rest, a chair for her while waiting for photos, etc)."
