( throwaway account) I ( 24 M) and my now wife ( 23 F) have been high school sweet hearts. we decided to get married last year in may. everybody was supportive of our marriage and everything was going well until 2 days before our wedding my BIL ( 28 M ) told me he wanted to propose to my sister ( 25 F) at me and my wifes wedding. they’ve been together for 3 years and have a lovely daughter named Jackie ( fake name ). I told him I needed to think about it, and he gave me time till the next day. after thinking for a bit, the next day I met with him and my sister at a bar. after my sister went to the bathroom I mentioned his proposal plan and how I was not going to tolerate him trying to make this magical day that was for my wife and me about him.he blew up on me. calling me all sorts of names. he told me he had told his family and had bought the ring, because he was 100% sure I would tolerate that kind of behavior on MY WEDDING. my anger issues couldn’t hold back and my face turned red. I told him: " Your’re literally asking me if I want you to ruin the best day of my life? imagine if I told my sister that you wanted to marry her? it wouldn’t be a surprise anymore, would it? how would that feel"After that he went quiet and I looked around the bar, everybody was looking at our table including my sister who had heard everything. my sister and my BIL ran out of the bar and cut contact with me and my wife. they never came to my wedding, until at thanks giving when everybody in my family showed up there I saw her. She called me an asshole for not letting my BIL propose to her at my wedding it would be the best day of her life, but I apparently unnecessarily stepped in and stopped my BIL for no good reason. me and my sister both share the same friend group and everybody in the group is pretty split on my decision. some accuse me of being the asshole , but I cant see why?

reddit AITA?
