Woman Refuses To Sell Entitled Cousin a Vintage Wedding Dress She Repurposed for a Cosplay After Cousin Passes on It at the Thrift Store, Resulting in a Family Divide

Finding the perfect wedding gown is a must if you're into all of the traditional wedding planning ventures. Many women spend months and even years trying to find the perfect dress that simply speaks to them. Sometimes, it might be the $6000 Vivienne Westwood custom gown. Or, it just might be your most recent thrift find at the secondhand shop. Either way, if you decline a dress, expect somebody to sweep it up after they get the OK to do so. After all, if you're making fun of a dress, don't be surprised when your creative cousin transforms the gown into the fairytale wedding garment of your dreams.

The woman in this Reddit story is caught in the middle of a family feud because she found a vintage wedding gown at the thrift store while shopping with her bride-to-be cousin.

After weeks of monitoring the dress's progress on social media, the cousin changes her mind and decides she now wants the dress with all of the OP's alterations. The OP is dumbfounded, and her family is now telling her to gift the dress to her cousin despite all of the work she's done with the garment. The result is a family divide.
