But what happens when the celebrations involve some calculated moves and a sweet payday?
Onebrideshared her story of intentionally profiting off her sisters big day, and it got everyone buzzing.
It cant be easy.
Fast forward to their adult lives, and both sisters were on the verge of tying the knot.
This wasnt some sort of bridal showdown, as their engagements just happened almost at the same time.
This wasnt their dream spot.
Actually, it was far from it, but the OP had a feeling it might come in handy.
And boy, was she right.
Much to her surprise, the parents didnt cave.
What was she going to do with a venue she hated?
A very relieved OP talked it over with her fiance and agreed to the deal.
The sis got to have her dream venue, and the OP scored a honeymoon without lifting a finger.
But the OP was convinced this was a fair trade.
It was a win-win situation.
Lets face it, we all had fights with oursiblingswhen we were kids.
Resolution is possible, but it might require some sibling therapy.
The sibling relationship can be the most supportive and meaningful relationship we have.
It is the longest relationship we have.
Talk about some good planning skills.
I guess it pays to know your family inside and out.
What did you think of this story?
Was our bride a jerk for making an extra buck off her sisters wedding?
