Couple refuses to let niece use ‘castle’ for wedding
A couple’s decision to refuse their niece’s request to use their ‘castle’ for her wedding has caused a family feud. The couple had combined their savings to purchase a derelict farmhouse in Southern Europe, which they referred to as The Castle due to its small turret. They spent years renovating it and have always allowed family and friends to use it, with the stipulation that the master bedroom is off-limits. When their niece asked to have her wedding there and revealed plans to use the master bedroom as the bridal suite, the couple politely refused. Despite offering compromises, their niece and sister blew up at them, causing tension in the family. The couple’s decision to prioritize their own comfort and protect their personal space is understandable, but it remains to be seen how this family feud will be resolved in the future.
