Wedding
ADVERTIsem*nT
Once upon a time we told you a story about a guy who insisted that his then-girlfriend be in a relative’s wedding photos – only for his fiancee (another woman, of course) to wonder a few years later – who was that woman next to him in a family photo?
So, this story is diametrically opposite, and here the bride-to-be acts weird as hell, literally out of the blue provoking family drama in relation to her future brother-in-law. The author of this story, the user u/consequentialism_97, has collected over 7.6K upvotes and nearly 650 comments in just a few days, so let’s figure everything out together…
The author of the post has a younger sister who is going to tie the knot soon

The author was overly upset when the bride-to-be demanded her husband not be present in the wedding photos

The bride-to-be’s argument was something like ‘just in case,’ but the author says she has a really great relationship with her spouse

After many years of working as sports journalist and trivia game author and host in Ukraine I joined Bored Panda as a content creator. I do love writing stories and I sincerely believe - there's no dull plots at all. Like a great Italian composer Joaquino Rossini once told: "Give me a police protocol - and I'll make an opera out of it!"

OK, I’m going to say it, because I know most of us thought it, even if only fleetingly. I also know I’m risking a lot of downvotes, but here goes. Is OP’s sister a closet racist and is OP’s husband of another race? Is the fact that OP and husband might divorce one day just sister’s cover excuse for excluding him, when the real reason is she doesn’t want someone of another race “sullying” her precious wedding pictures? I know that, in normal times, could be considered a worst case scenario, but the times we’re living in now aren’t normal, and racism has been let out from under its rock and allowed to flourish in public. There are those amongst us now, more than a half century AFTER Civil Rights, who are openly—-even proudly!—-racist nowadays. So this worst case scenario may be the case. With a little more context, we might know for sure. There. I’m done. Open the gates for the lunatic fringe to join in, and unleash the abuse. I won’t hear it, as I am not going to check the comments for this article again.

No downvote from me, I actually thought the same. If she specifically doesn't want him in the picture because he's not the same race as the rest of the family, and just him, it seems like the closest reason why. For me, that'd mean I won't be in the pictures either. You take my partner, you take me, there is no one without the other

I’d say that if he’s not included in the pics, then I’m not being in them either

Yeah sorry, I'd be pissed. Certain new relationships were a potential problem with my sister's recent wedding, so we had everyone pictures and no significant others at all pictures. Singling one person out is crazy.
