Cousin slammed for wanting to steal the thunder from couple by proposing to fiancee on their big day
Have you ever found yourself with the surprising realization that someone else wanted to steal your thunder on your big day? One redditor did and she posted her highly amusing experience on Reddit. The poster had said that her maid of honor, Ashlyn, and the groom’s best man, Andy, had been dating for three years and that the latter wanted to propose to the former at one of their wedding dress fittings.
The wedding duo agreed and the proposal happened, which she describes as “beautiful.” However, she then goes on to detail that her fiance’s cousin had asked for her to speak to her fiance because he was angry about not getting permission to propose to his girlfriend at their wedding! “It was mildly funny because my fiance was sitting next to me at the table with a grouchy look on his face for the past hour, now I know why. I texted the cousin back and told him that if my fiance said no, I will as well,” the poster said. However, things did not stop there and escalated to become a bigger problem as revealed on the Reddit AITA (Am I the A*****e) platform.

‘It was unfair!’: Cousin’s mother slams wedding couple
The cousin’s mother had then gone on to continuously call and text and leave notes on the couple’s Facebook page, saying "it was unfair to the cousin and his girlfriend that they couldn't get engaged at my wedding even though we let our friends get engaged.”
This, it seems, is an aunt who had tried to interfere with the wedding preparations and had a breakdown about who was invited to the wedding. The poster then details that her fiance’s mother and sister had shut this down as quickly as it came. However, Facebook users who had seen the aunt’s comments on their posts are now harassing the couple too.
The verdict is in!
Redditors overwhelmingly supported the couple, with one of them saying, “Imagine being so presumptuous as to think you had a right to get engaged on someone else's big day.” A second user also slammed the cousin for being a freeloader, saying, “Like dress fitting and Wedding Day are two completely different events. Someone is looking for a free party by getting engaged at someone else's wedding.” One of the users also provided the couple-in-distress with a solution, “Don’t give the cousin a plus one and then he can’t bring the (perhaps future) fiance to the wedding and therefore can’t propose.”
“You have spent so much time love money and care into planning this wedding, there is no reason it should be anyone else’s day but you and your husbands,” a user said, after slamming the cousin and his intentions. Another user also put the whole incident into a nutshell and deemed it to be the “best way to get uninvited from a wedding.”
