My brother and his fiancée, Jen, had been together for five years. They began dating just a few months after her former fiancé, Lee, died in an automobile accident. Lee dashed into their wedding, exactly at the ‘Speak now or eternally keep your peace’ moment, much to everyone’s consternation.

He admitted to having faked his death years ago in order to start a new life with Jen’s sister. However, after learning of Jen’s engagement to my brother, he suddenly realized he still loved her and attempted to cancel the wedding. His unexpected return stunned both sisters.

After a few hours of mayhem, confusion, and explanations, the wedding resumed, with me taking over as the new Maid of Honor. Jen and my brother are still blissfully married, Jen has cut all relations with her sister, and what about Lee? “He has moved on…to someone else entirely.”
