What happens when a bride-to-be bans her nephew from attending her wedding, even after he spent months designing and creating her dream wedding dress? Well, one uncle decided to take matters into his own hands. The bride’s brother (40m) was left fuming after his sister (30f) refused to invite his 17-year-old son to her wedding, despite the teenager’s incredible efforts to make her the perfect gown.

Uncle withholds dress, commenters agree she should pay full retail

“NTA. If she is willing to make an adult sized request of a 17 year old, she should be willing to accept him as an adult. There is also no reason that a minor cannot attend a wedding with an open bar as everyone venue I looked at for my wedding, and ever open barred wedding I have attended, has had a bartender that checked ID’s.” – Engaging discussion about age and wedding attendance!

NTA but your sister definitely is. She doesn’t want her almost adult nephew *who designed and made her dress* at her wedding because … there would be alcohol? I could understand if she didn’t want to make an exception for a friend, or even a cousin. Making an exception for her **only** minor nephew, especially given that she could have pointed him out when people asked about the dress, would have been not only understandable but practically obligatory to anyone hearing about the circumstances.
