Dear Alison,. I’m my sister-in-law’s maid of honour and I’m so happy to be involved – that was until I realised she was stealing my wedding. We weren’t actually that close at first but we’ve become like sisters over the years. In fact, she was a bit rude about me when I got married to her brother. I found out she was talking about me behind my back, so I confronted her and we talked things through. I was surprised how close we got when we opened up, but it’s been great since.

Fast forward two years and she’s getting married and I was excited at first, until every decision she made was stolen from my wedding with her brother. The venue, the flowers, the cake. Even my dress looks exactly like hers. I don’t know if she’s doing it on purpose, and if I should actually trust her. Everything from our past is coming up and I’m feeling conflicted.
At the same time, my wedding was absolutely stunning, and if it can help her, then I should let her take those ideas. Right?. Lucy. Weddings are joyful occasions – but they’re also incredibly stressful. Whether you’re a bride or groom, best woman or man, family member or friend of the couple, the run up to the big day can be very tense.
