Today, I arrived at the house we rented for my sister's engagement party. I was also told that I have to sleep in the most cramped bedroom with my uncle, who sounds like a mortally wounded warthog when he snores. I paid for the rental. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had to temporarily relocate to my brother's room after mine was being repainted. Not only do I have to sleep on the floor, but I also have to put up with my brother and dog both snoring loudly. What's worse is that they alternate in snoring. Goodbye sleep. FML
Today, I'm spending the night at my family’s house. I have to share a room with my two kids and their mother. The three of them snore like warthogs in a zoo. Desperate for sleep, I went to go sleep on the couch. The dog sleeping on the rug snores like an old truck. I’m never going to get any sleep. FML
Today, I was feeling too tired because I couldn't sleep last night, due to my mother's snoring. Since I stayed with both my parents and my sister in a small town for a vacation, I requested to sleep in separate rooms because my mother's snoring is disgustingly loud. She refused, and called me a crybaby. FML
Today, I let my little sister sleep in my room because she had a nightmare. She is currently snoring like an overweight 40 year-old man with a cold. FML
Today, I traveled to my hometown for a funeral. I'm staying with my family in the house I grew up in. My dad told me they'd "completely renovated" the house. There's still only one bathroom for the seven of us and I'm sleeping on the floor for the entire two weeks. FML
Today, I was visiting my in-laws and sharing a room with my husband's 17-year-old sister. Later that night she and her brother of 24 years started fist-fighting over an air mattress and I had to pull them off each other. The brother later berated me with, "You can't handle any pressure!" FML
Today, my dad and I had to move in with my mom. There's only two tiny rooms, and my aunt lives there along with her dogs and my cat. The dogs have tried to kill my cat, I have to share the bed with my mom, who snores BAD, and I haven't slept in two days. I work early all week. FML
Today, despite the fact that I live with my parents and pay rent, my mom decided the best spot for my brother, his wife and one-year-old son was my bedroom. So I'm sleeping on the couch, because it would, "take too long to clean her room." FML
Today, I ended up sleeping on the dirty floor because my sister didn't want to share a king size bed with me. She got up to get a drink and stepped on my face. FML
Today, I was sleeping when my roommate walked in and asked me, "So… when are you leaving?" She had decided to throw a party in our apartment. I wasn't invited. FML

If you paid the rental then you should have some say in who sleeps where, including yourself and the warthog.

If he paid for the entire rental I'd say the other people could just find somewhere else to sleep then. He should really get whatever room he wants. He's 100% of the reason for them even having the rental.

While I agree that seems unfair, once you eliminate the couples who share rooms, the single folk are left to buddy up. If something similar is going to happen for the wedding, find yourself a plus one, or you could end up sharing with Pumbaa again.

You're right. OP must have rented the house because it was his turn, or something. I doubt he would have rented it as a gift for his sister's engagement. And the chances of other family members paying their share for the rental after the fact must be pretty slim, so it is fair that OP demands to have whatever room he wants. Though I do think it would have been nice of him to allow the couples to share rooms.

You’re assuming that the issue is couples. The same number of people regardless of couples, this issue is a couple who has been with each other would be more comfortable in a cramped room.

If you’re so rich, you should be able to afford some earplugs and an anti-snoring mouthpiece for Uncle Chainsaw.

Put your foot down and say no. You paid, your right.

They can’t make you. Do something.

If you rented the place then you must have known something about the number of people that were going to be invited. So you'd have put someone else in the cramped bedroom with your snoring uncle instead? Somebody would have had to take the spot. I'd say YDI.

You paid for it, you tell the others where to sleep. If they don't know that, fill them in. If they refuse, tell them to pay you for the rental and take that money and go stay someplace peaceful.
