Mom Is Beyond Devastated After Her Sister Fired Her 4-Year-Old From Being A Flower Girl At Her Wedding Later Learns It Was Because Of Racism
Liucija Adomaite and
Mindaugas Balčiauskas
Imagine sheer joy in a child's eyes after hearing they'll be a flower girl for their aunt's wedding. Sadly, for one excited 4-year-old, the dream was over before it could begin. "I was kinda nervous when she asked me and my daughter (4) to be bridesmaids in February because I knew she was gonna be a massive bridezilla," wrote the bride's sister about her initial suspicions in a lengthy post on the AITA subreddit. Over the course of a few months, they "had to practice multiple dances, pay for very expensive dresses and put up with her tantrums," she added. At one point during the whole preparation, the bride decided that her little niece was in fact not good enough to be a flower girl and could only attend the ceremony as a guest. In fact, the bride was afraid of the 4-year-old "messing everything up." As you can imagine, this didn't end there. The family conflict escalated and soon the mom of the fired flower girl realized there was a much more nasty reason why the bride canceled her daughter. Recently a woman has shared a story of how her bride sister invited her daughter of 4 to be a flower girl only to have her fired a few months into the preparation br

And while some couples hire professionals, others think they will manage to tackle the workload themselves. Combine the pressure of having a perfect day with stress over tiny things and the personality trait of wanting to control everything, and the chances are you'll meet a bridezilla. The term has been popularized by social media and a number of TV shows, is used to refer to particularly difficult brides who basically make the planning hell on earth for their guests, fellow planners, family members, and themselves. "A bridezilla is someone who loses her cool when it comes to wedding planning, usually snapping at friends, family, and suppliers when these people are only trying to help," Rhiann Janak Gouabeche, the CEO of Lucy Till French Wedding planners, explained. The last few months of preparation for the sister s wedding weren t easy on the author and her little daughter
So imagine how it felt after the author was told that her 4-year-old wasn t good enough and was gonna mess things up
But it seemed like the bride didn t care about how her flower girl would feel after hearing the news
And it was just heartbreaking for the kid
It turns out the bride saw this post on the AITA subreddit and got really upset so she showed up at the author s job
The author has added some revealing updates after her sister s photographer reached out to her
Shockingly it turned out the reason why the 4-year-old was fired from being a flower girl goes deeper than not being good enough
Luckily the author received support from her parents and other family members
In the end the author addressed the critics and bullies
Image credits: 0trow A bridezilla might be your fiancée, sister, best friend or daughter. And this is what makes her behavior particularly hard for family members. The psychopathic ball of nerves looks nothing you remember her, with many times her actions or words changing your relationship for years to come.In extreme situations, you have no option but to stand up for yourself and put an end to it. If the bride is being rude, unrealistic, too demanding, bullying and even abusive, you have to tell her so and call her out if she goes onto others. No one deserves to be treated poorly, and this is the end of the discussion. Anyone can write on Bored Panda. Start writing! Follow Bored Panda on Google News! Follow us on Flipboard.com/@boredpanda!

What I can tell you is that having a four year old as your flower girl guarantees some great smiles and some very proud grand parents. It’s your day but it’s also a family day, it brings together two families and hopefully it introduces them to each other in the best way possible. If you make it ALL about you then you’ll miss out on loads of opportunities and it’ll be stressful as you can imagine. Lay off the whole princess / prince thing and focus on the beginning of a new family and the love side of it. 49 49points reply Grumble O'Pug Grumble O'Pug Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 11 months ago You nailed it!!! 3 3points reply Load More Replies...
