While it feels delicious to think and plot along those lines, the only thing people will remember is how childish and petty you will seem to them.

The "wedding" is just ONE DAY...one party (ok..stretch it out to a weekend). This wench is going to be your sister-in-law for a lot longer (depending on when and if your brother wises up for afterwhile the fog of "new love and sex" will clear into reality of living with the other person).

Think ahead...there will holidays, parties, birth of children etc. Do you want to alienate her so far as she keeps your brother hostage and away from your family each time something comes up? Oh I have seen this happen again and again.

Take the high road, cry in private or on your mom's shoulder, share the travesty quietly and in whispers to trusted family members (who will undoubtedly share it around as families tend to do) and remember...

Living well is the BEST revenge.
