My Parents Demanded I Cancel My Wedding Because Of My Spoiled Sister's "Bad Mood." Instead, I Didn't Invite Them, And Then All Hell Broke Loose

We decided to brainstorm which mutual friends might help fill the empty seats left by my parents’ absence. "How about Mark and Julia?" I suggested. "They’ve always been like family." Jason nodded. "And maybe Sarah and Tom too?" he proposed. Together, we compiled a list, feeling a bit more at ease. This wedding would be special, with or without my parents. We leaned on the love and support of our friends to make it happen.
