I was a bridesmaid in my sister in law's wedding and she and her family are saying I ruined her wedding by putting her in a bad mood. The wedding was a 2 hour drive so I had to stay in a hotel. I made arrangements several months ago with my neighbors to watch my dogs for the wedding. They had to cancel at the last minute because a family member passed away. We couldn’t find another sitter with availability on such short notice so I switched to a pet friendly hotel. I had to drop something off at the bride’s house and she saw the dogs in my car and got mad that I brought them.
I had to leave at around 8 at her reception to go back to the hotel to take my medication (it needs to be refrigerated). Since I was already going back to the hotel, I took my dogs out so a family member wouldn’t have to leave the reception. I waited until the first dance, cake cutting, and all that was done before leaving. When I left, people were dancing and nothing else was going on. When I got back, her dad grabbed my arm and yelled at me for leaving to take the dogs out. He said I missed the bouquet toss and garter and how could I do this to her. I told him I had to take my medicine and he didn't care. I asked my mom and she said the bride had the DJ call my name out because she couldn’t find me for the bouquet toss and looked visibly angry when a bridesmaid ran up to tell her I left. She ignored me for the rest of the evening. I asked my brother if he was mad and he said no he didn’t care. It’s not like I left early and didn’t come back… I stayed until the very end because I was asked to take people back to the hotel that were drinking. I was gone for 30 minutes because the drive to the hotel and I did call the reception hall asking if I could put the medication in a refrigerator there early in the day and they said no.
The bride and her family are very angry with me and I feel bad for my brother for having to deal with her attitude at the wedding because of it. Family members took the dogs out before the ceremony and in between the ceremony and reception so I didn’t miss anything related to the ceremony or pictures. I asked my brother at the reception if he was mad and he said no he didn’t care. Was I in the wrong here?
