There were quite a few dramas leading up to the wedding, but it all came to a head after the ceremony when both the bride's sisters, who were bridesmaids, walked out on her

Planning a wedding can be very stressful, and it's only natural that the stress sometimes causes some unwanted friction leading up to the day. However, a sister was so fed up with her 'bridezilla' sibling's behaviour she decided to walk out on her mid-wedding.

Taking to Reddit, the 26-year-old explained that her "naturally bossy and controlling" sister, who she gave the fake name Shirley, had six bridesmaids – including her and her other sister 'Mary'.

They had a few dramas leading up to the day because of Shirley's demands,. including asking the two blondes of the group to change their hair colour to brunette for the wedding so they could all "match".

In the post, the anonymous woman explained: "All of this stress has caused Shirley to act even more controlling and snappy, especially to our little sister, a very passive person who has always sought her approval.

"Mary changed her hair colour, lost three kilos, agreed to look after the guest's children during part of the reception, and got a week off work to help her prepare everything, all because Shirley wanted her to."

When the big day came, Shirley was "yelling at everyone during hair and make-up" – but things escalated. She explained: "At some point she caught Mary eating and made a rude comment about that being the reason why she still looks fat in the dress (I must add that Shirley got her a dress two sizes smaller than everyone else's), I bit my tongue and tried to understand that she was just under a lot of stress and not to ruin her one special day.

"I took Mary and went to do our makeup in another room until our sister calmed down, which caused some drama but Shirley got over it quickly."

It all came to a head during reception, when 21-year-old Mary thought she was supposed to keep an eye on the children to make sure they didn't "ruin the footage".

In the post, the woman explained: "I found Shirley yelling in Mary's face in the back of the venue. Apparently, there was some essential footage Shirley wanted to get at the beginning of the ceremony, and it was now ruined because Mary was somewhere else.

"I intervened, Shirley started yelling at me, and I yelled back. She said we were ruining her wedding, and I told her that we would do better on her next one. Eventually, Mary (who had had a few drinks) threw up from the stress."

To make matters worse, Shirley then "grabbed Mary's arm" which is when the woman "reached breaking point and finally walked out," taking her younger sister with her.

She added: "We missed about 70% of the reception, leaving Shirley without a maid of honour's speech and without babysitting."

They haven't spoken since that day, and the woman is now left wondering if it was "worth damaging out relationship.

Fellow commenters were outraged by the sister's behaviour, with one person saying: "This is the definition of a Bridezilla."

Another added: "You sister is 1000% the a**hole and you and Mary reacted the way any reasonable person would and should. I honestly hope you hold your bridezilla sister accountable and expect an apology for yourself but ESPECIALLY FOR MARY."

"I understand bridal stress but prior to that making someone lose weight and change their hair colour is ABSURD," remarked another.
