Its Official My Brother is an idiot (edited to stop arguements)

What is it with weddings that bring out the evil in people, now my brother, has always been arrogant, big headed and generally unlikeable. if he was in a room of 20 people he is the one you would hear above all others...So now some woman has agreed to marry him, my feelings towards her shall remain unspoken, for now
But this wedding is going to give my poor mother heart failure. Scott is so ungrateful and unthinking, firstly she has made the wedding cake, including making all the iceing flowers and sprays etc, its stunning, my brothers reaction, 'well its better than i thought it would be I suppose' I have never been so shocked in my life....
He has continued in this im going to be an arse kind of way over my children and their roles in this wedding. Chloe is to be bridesmaid. which is fine, beautiful dress, lovely shoes, stunning, scott although seems to forget chloe has CHD and only has half a working heart, cannot walk very far, and needs to sit down or she will fall down. he tried banning me from bringing her wheelchair, told me she was going to HAVE to walk down the aisle and stand behind them until the hours ceremony is over, then stand around for another 2 hours for photos. you can imagine my reply to this. it had swear words in it and was a round about way of saying, as if!!
He is insisting that she comes to julies house on the morning of the wedding to get dressed, but im not allowed to stay around, so basically i have to drop her off in a house full of strangers who have no idea why this little girl might suddenly go blue and need to sit down.
he is also insisting that i go up a day early, drive 2 hours to get to our hotel, then drive another 30 minutes to the church so chloe can be at the rehersal, all this after school. she dosnt need to be at the rehearsal!
then we get to alex, who they havnt even bothered to hire a suit for, and refused my offer of hire for him. they got him a shirt and trousers, and want him to be an usher. alex now is left wondering why he is the only male without a suit, and i cant help but wonder the same thing, but of course scott is very evasive when i ask.
I know this is his wedding day, but does he have to be so unreasonable all the time, im also taking our grandparents, who are very very old and he is expecting them to wait around afterwards for photos, without chairs.
Im stressed out, he had my mother in tears over this rehersal business. I know he wants it to be a perfect day, but nothing is ever perfect and sometimes you have to accomodate other peoples needs and think of someone other than yourself. im seriously considering not even going at all.
Im going to stop now before i bust an artery myself.
Oh add to the fact he told me what I would and would not wear to his wedding, now that bugged me.
ive got a suitably disgusting wedding type outfit that i hate, that he will surely love. but you know, ive still got time to customise it with some punkish accessories.
