She sent the stepfather an email uninviting him?

Did the mother yell at the brothers?

This is very worrisome.

If it’s an “upcoming wedding” as the article states, perhaps stepdad can cancel whatever he was going to pay for. The bride’s brothers can pick up the tab.

My answer would be, “Young lady, you need to change that or I will be having a party for my friends at that venue I paid for, with food from the caterer I paid for, and the DJ will have to modify his playlist by a generation.”

The photographer will jut be cancelled. We will take the cake, though. I like cake.

My wife’s parents are divorced, and they have still managed to maintain that hatred for the 50 years since the divorce. When our oldest got married, we invited both of them. When her mom found out her dad was coming, she gave us the “him or me” ultimatum. Sorry you feel that way, but the invitations are what they are. We will post some photos online for you if you can’t ignore each other and/or be civil for a couple of hours.

We set the invitation list. The guests come or they don’t. (I’d be lying if I said we were heartbroken she couldn’t make it.)

My stupid and incredibly selfish niece disinvited her grandmother from her wedding this past Saturday.

My mother is 81 and in some early stages of memory loss.

Selfish niece got mad because my mom forgot the grooms name.

Of course the stupid selfish girl never bothered to bring the guy over to meet her.

We weren’t invited either but we’ve lived out of state for 12 years and don’t really know her well.

I told my mom that my niece is going to have lots of guilt over her stupid selfishness.

Whiny ass, spoiled brothers couldn’t deal with their mother re-marrying, so they want to spoil their sister’s wedding day, and make it all about themselves. The girl made the wrong decision. She is weak.

Step daddy needs to cancel the check.

The kids need to mature, and seek counseling.

Step daddy needs to go off shore fishing and enjoy a life he’s not allowed to have in this toxic environment.

I can see the stepfather cancelling the open bar.

Her brothers sound like bullies. It doesn’t say their ethnicity. Some believe the men call all the shots and women must take a back seat.

Don’t want to invite him? Pay for the wedding yourself.

Yet another reason not to marry a single mom. You not only get the thankless task of raising another man’s child/children but some of them may well resent you for marrying their mother. Pass.

Just my two cents but if she is old enough to marry, she should be adult enough not to be pressured by her brothers. Dang... want to be a big girl then be a big girl and tell her brothers that HER wedding will include her step Dad. If she doesn’t do this now, her brothers will bully her into not allowing the step dad to be included in holiday celebrations and being a granddad later.

She can cancel the wedding until they figure this out. Besides, her fiance will still be her cousin later anyway.

“The question was posed on Reddit’s IATA (Am I The A**hole)”

Has anyone posting the question on Reddit ever not been the a-hole? Odds are, if you have to ask...

Stepdad needs to re-evaluate his relationship with wife and step kids. Leaving the wife and the whole family might be required if there is that kind of resistance. stepdad better make sure he is, or was, not a jerk also. If he is innocent....might be time to leave. Let the kids support the mom in her old age.
Life completely sucks....does it not?

“to uninvite her stepfather...” She probably doesn’t want the stepfather at the wedding and blames the boys for being intolerant.

There’s only one wedding I’m worried about. If I’m not invited to that one, if I’m kicked out of that Wedding Supper, oh boy.

There are too many unanswered questions here.

What were the circumstances of the divorce? Marital abuse or amicable separation? Has the step father been abusive? Are the brothers unreasonable jerks who just want their mommy & daddy back together again? What does Momma think about this? Why isn’t the girls biological parents paying for the wedding?

Hard to tell who is wrong here, however, if I was the step father & was disinvited to the wedding, my checkbook would be closed immediately. Let the brothers pay for a wedding for which they have dictated the guest list.
