Internet users came in with overwhelming support after a woman decided not to invite her son's current girlfriend to her wedding. The ordeal was discussed by the original poster (OP), u/Prior_Bodybuilder_57 on Reddit's popular forum 'Am I The A**hole,' The post garnered more than 1000 upvotes and almost 300 comments. 

In the Reddit post titled "AITA for not wanting my brother's new girlfriend at my wedding?" The 30-year-old bride-to-be began explaining the ordeal, "I (30f) am getting married in 6 months. I have a younger brother (27m) whose relationship of 7 years ended three months ago. The reason of the break-up was that he cheated on his former girlfriend with the girl he is currently dating."

'I'm so mad at my brother'

The post further detailed, "His former girlfriend was like a sister to me, we grew to be really close during these past 7 years and I was really disappointed on my brother he had done such a thing to such a sweet person. I was really excited to have this girl in my bridal party. Now she won't even be at the wedding for obvious reasons, and on top of that my brother expects me to invite his current girlfriend. I really don't want her there. Even if they had started dating in a "normal" way (like, not cheating) I'm not sure I would want to invite someone I met only a few months prior to the wedding day (I've been planning my wedding for longer than I've known this person!). Also knowing that this new girlfriend really hurt my "ex-sister-in-law" and the fact that she is the main reason she won't be there not there, would make me really mad and sad every time I saw her at the reception. I'm so mad at my brother too, cause what he did is awful. The only reason he is still in the wedding list is because I know my mother will start drama if I don't invite him." Finally she wrote, "I don't think I'm the a-hole, but my brother and my dad are calling me a bridezilla and my mother is telling me I'm ruining the day for her. AITA?"

'Your wedding your rules'

One supportive user wrote, "NTA, your wedding your rules - and your family can get all the way off your back for you not wanting someone to come that you don't really know. Edit: some people have rightly pointed out that "your x your rules" isn't a good enough reason, and I think that's fair. Essentially what I'm saying is. "You're completely within your rights to set the terms for who's invited to your wedding, especially as you don't know them and you feel greater loyalty to someone else that could be hurt if you invite them. After all, it is YOUR wedding".

Reddit

Another added into the comments, "And I would use the argument that “my wedding is not going to be the family event to introduce your new gf aka your affair partner to the extended family”. There is a time and a place and your wedding doesn’t have to be it. Especially when you don’t approve of the relationship. NTA"

Reddit

Someone chimed in, " 'I really don't want her there'. That's a complete sentence. No need for explanations. Your wedding. He can choose not to go, and that's his right, but... again, your wedding, NTA."

Reddit

Another wrote siding with the woman, "NTA, in fact, you could disinvite your brother and re-invite his ex and still be NTA. It's your wedding invite who you want. Edit, want not what."
