My Husband Gave My Invitation to His Sister’s Wedding to His Best Female Friend — I Made Him Regret It

My future sister-in-law sent us her wedding invitation six months ago. The venue is super special and has a strict limit on the number of guests. She wanted to make sure everyone could come. Four months before the wedding, I took three days off, bought a dress, and prepared a gift.

But a week before the wedding, my husband, Andrew, got a call.

“Amanda is coming,” he said.

Amanda is Andrew’s best friend from college. He says they’ve never been in love, but something definitely happened between them. Whenever she breaks up with someone, he drops everything and rushes to her. But this time, he went too far.

On the day of the wedding, I came home from my makeup appointment and saw his message, “Babe, Amanda asked if she could come with me to the wedding, so I took our invitation and you can have some rest. I took your gift too! Thanks.“

I was like… WHAT?!

I immediately called his sister, Sarah. “Sarah, you won’t believe what Andrew did.”

“What happened?” she asked, sounding worried.

“He took our invitation to the wedding and gave it to Amanda! He took my gift too!”

Sarah was furious. “He did what?! Oh, he has gone too far this time. You know what? Come to the wedding as my cousin’s plus-one instead.”

“Are you sure?” I asked, feeling a bit better.

“Absolutely. You deserve to be there more than Amanda,” she insisted.

I rushed to the venue and arrived just in time to see Amanda being denied entry at the door.

“I’m sorry, but your name is not on the list,” the bouncer said firmly.

“What do you mean? Andrew invited me!” Amanda protested, looking shocked.

“Your name is not on the list. You cannot enter,” the bouncer repeated.

Meanwhile, I walked into the wedding venue, arm in arm with Sarah’s cousin. The guests turned to look, and Andrew’s face went pale when he saw me.

“Jill, what are you doing here?” he asked, his voice strained.

“I’m here for Sarah’s wedding. Is there a problem?” I replied coolly.

“Can you give your place to Amanda? Please, she has nowhere to go,” he pleaded.

“No, Andrew. I won’t be giving up my place. She shouldn’t be here in the first place,” I said firmly.

Andrew began to panic as Amanda was still arguing with the bouncer outside. The guests started whispering, sensing the tension.

A bit later, our families came to us and started asking what was going on, so I stood up and addressed them.

“Everyone, I have something to say. Andrew thought it would be appropriate to take my invitation and give it to his friend Amanda without telling me. He even took my gift for Sarah and tried to exclude me from this wedding.”

Gasps echoed through the room. Andrew looked like he wanted to disappear.

His mom spoke up, her voice filled with disappointment. “This is unacceptable. I didn’t raise you to behave this way. No respect in marriage is a dead marriage.”

I came to him and said personally, “I see that Amanda is extremely important to you. However, this time you crossed the line. This is it. I mean it.”

The room fell silent. He tried to speak, but no words came out. Sarah came over and hugged me, thanking me for standing up for myself.

As I walked out of the venue, I felt a sense of empowerment and relief. I left Andrew to face the consequences of his actions alone. The wedding proceeded with everyone now fully aware of Andrew’s betrayal, and I knew that I had made the right decision for my future.

Revenge was sweet, and it was even sweeter knowing that I had reclaimed my dignity and self-respect. Sometimes, the best way to handle betrayal is to face it head-on and show that you will not be treated as an afterthought.

The wedding ceremony continued, but the air was thick with tension. Sarah’s family rallied around me, offering support and kind words.

“Jill, you did the right thing,” Sarah’s mother said, squeezing my hand. “Andrew needed to be put in his place.”

“Thank you,” I replied, feeling a bit emotional. “It means a lot to hear that.”

As the night wore on, I watched from a distance as Andrew tried to blend into the crowd, avoiding the disapproving glares from family members and friends. Amanda had finally left, unable to handle the embarrassment.

Sarah approached me again, her face a mix of concern and sympathy. “Are you okay?” she asked softly.

“I’m fine,” I said, offering a small smile. “It’s just a lot to take in.”

“You’re stronger than you think,” she said, giving me a reassuring hug. “And we’re here for you, no matter what.”

I nodded, appreciating her words. The music started again, and people slowly returned to enjoying the celebration. I mingled with the guests, determined to make the most of the evening despite the earlier drama.

As the night drew to a close, I found myself reflecting on everything that had happened. I knew there were difficult conversations and decisions ahead, but for now, I was content knowing I had stood up for myself.

Andrew approached me, looking hesitant and remorseful. “Jill, can we talk?” he asked quietly.

“We can talk later,” I replied, my voice steady. “Right now, I just want to enjoy the rest of the evening.”

He nodded, defeated. “I understand.”

The wedding ended on a positive note, with Sarah and her new husband surrounded by love and happiness. As I left the venue, I felt a newfound sense of strength and determination. This was just the beginning of a new chapter for me, and I was ready to face whatever came next.

And so, I walked away, leaving Andrew to contemplate his actions. The future was uncertain, but I knew one thing for sure: I deserved better, and I was ready to fight for it.

On Her Wedding Day, Bride Is Terrified When Her Supposedly Dead Fiancé Appears among the Guests — Story of the Day

A young woman is standing at the altar about to marry a man she doesn’t love when she sees her dead fiancé among her guests.

Sarah looked into the mirror and tucked the fine gold chain she always wore out of sight. This was supposed to be the happiest day of her life, but she was on the verge of tears.

“Now, don’t you cry!” said the makeup artist pouting, and quickly dusting a sheer veil of face powder under Sarah’s eyes, “You’ll spoil my work!”

Across the room, Sarah’s mother smiled thinly. “Tears of joy,” she said, but she knew they were tears of grief.

Sarah adjusted her wedding dress and felt the comforting weight of the engagement ring against her chest. A delicate ring with a tiny diamond, so different from the 15-carat monstrosity now weighing down her left hand.

“This is your choice,” Sarah told herself softly. “And now that David is gone, it doesn’t really matter who you marry…” The man she was marrying was pleasant enough and kind, but he was her father’s choice.

Frank Melville was the son of Sarah’s father’s partner, and their marriage would consolidate a business relationship that had lasted for decades and had made both men millionaires many times over.

Her true love was dead. He’d passed away three years before in a horrific car accident, her love, David O’Reilly. David had been her driver when Sarah was a young celebrity being chased by the paparazzi who lived on recording the misdeeds of the young and rich.

Sarah had noticed David watching her through the rearview mirror sometimes and turned her face away in disdain. Then one night, at a club, she had drunk too much, or someone had slipped her something.

Happiness is worth more than all the luxuries and jewels in the world.

She felt ill and helpless, and she called David. Within minutes he was there to pick her up at the door of the club. He jumped out of the car and helped her walk to the curb, where her legs had folded.

To Sarah’s shame, she vomited, and David held her head and rubbed her back, murmuring senseless comforting words. He carried her into the car, cleaned her face, and took care of her.

From then on, it had been Sarah watching David, and before long she’d convinced him to go out with her on a date. Before long they were in love, and one day David presented her with a delicate circle of gold and its tiny crumb of a diamond.

Sarah said yes, of course, and had been naive enough to believe that her parents would be equally happy to see their only child marry a driver without a cent to his name.
