A bride has been taken to task over her unwillingness to invite her fiancé's 98-year-old grandmother to their wedding.

Taking to Reddit's "Am I The A**hole" (AITA) forum, the bride submitted the following question: "AITA for not wanting my fiancé's grandmother (98F) at our wedding?"

The bride, u/Legitimate_Scar_8747, introduced her dilemma by stating that it had caused a "serious argument" between her and her husband-to-be.

She went on to say that both she and the groom want their reception to be a "huge party for your adult friends and family with dancing, loud music, and an open bar."

The wedding, she explained, will be a child-free one.

U/Legitimate_Scar_8747 continued: "For precisely the same reasons that we don't want kids there, I don't want his elderly grandmother at our wedding either. I said she can come to the ceremony but not the reception.

"It will be extremely loud and I want it to be a party atmosphere, and she will be extremely out of place."

Unsurprisingly, her reasoning for not wanting her future grandma-in-law at the reception caused a "huge fight" between her and the groom.

It was also revealed that the 98-year-old grandmother had always dreamed about being at her grandson's wedding as he is her eldest grandchild and "she probably won't make it to the next family wedding."

U/Legitimate_Scar_8747 added: "She and he both insist that she will be fine and wants to go to the party. But I just know it will inevitably lead to us dealing with her and taking care of her, and I just want to get drunk and let loose with my friends."

The bride concluded the post: "She's now really upset and won't talk to me, and my fiancé is also angry. I think I am within my right to make this request, I am the bride after all."

However, despite her hardline stance on the matter, the overwhelming majority of Redditors who responded to the post deemed that she was, in fact, the "a**hole" in the situation.

One person referred to the bride as "coldhearted, extremely selfish and cruel."

Another wrote: "Seriously. Huge red flag to be marrying someone so cold."

A third said: "She wants to attend the wedding. If it’s not her scene, she has the option and capability to leave…Your making the decision for her, makes you the big time AH."

That's the consensus on Reddit - what are your thoughts on the matter? Let us know in the comments!
