Wedding related rants: M.O.H Stress!

Ladies, I apologise for the length & the rant but I'm at my wits end!
I got engaged last year and as soon as it was announced my sister 'volunteered' herself as Maid of Honour. It wouldn't have been my first choice as she can be a nightmare when she doesn't get her own way, but due to family pressure I gave in and let her carry on under the promise that she would remember who's day it was and that she needed too respect my wishes for various things.
However, since then I've nothing but issues with her, to the point where my other bridesmaids are getting irritated & frustrated, she refused to wear any of the dresses I picked out, she got the hump when my partner and I went to pick our wedding rings out, she's refused to come on any nights out, she's refused to come on the night out that my bridesmaids arranged for my hen do as she said she wouldn't organise anything, she asked me to move my hen do date because she didn't like it, she's thrown tantrum after tantrum about hair & make up & how she wants to look on the day. I'm struggling to keep my calm with her now and I'm out of ideas with how to keep myself happy and not upset my family, but the more it goes on I can see my hen do and my wedding day just being about her. Any ideas on how I can sort this?!
Thanks in advance! X X X

I would speak to your mum about the situation for support and maybe try to speak to your sister about things. One thing I have realised from wedding planning is you can't please everyone, just please yourself and your oh. xx

I would be very blunt with her.

Tell her that it your YOUR day, and not hers. For one day (and a few extra dates) she should be happy for you and work around you.
If she doesn't like it, she can take part as a guest and not in the bridal party at all.

Looking forward to becoming the 3rd and last Mrs McLauchlan

Yes I woukd speak to yiur mum or just be honest with her and say at the end of the day this is yiur wedding and although she may have her own ideas she can save them for her wedding day, this is the dress this is how hair and make up is, you really want her to be part of your day but only is she isn't going to cause a scene and strop so it's up to her what she does- mum are usually good at being tactful!

If you can persuade her to join you and the other bridesmaids, maybe you can say to them all what you need from them. Then when the other bridesmaids readily agree, as I'm sure they will, it makes it difficult for your sister to say anything else. You could even prime the others in advance. Could you allocate some maid of honour duties to the others so they get done? Have the hen do when you want and let your sister sulk. As for the dress, if you're paying then it's definitely reasonable to say she wears it or she doesn't do it, provided it doesn't make her look bad.

30th August 2014 was the best birthday ever.
It was the day that I became Mrs. Dixon.
