Quick Summary
A cash gift received from a sister for a daughter's wedding is generally not taxable in the UK. Gifts from immediate blood relatives, as defined by tax law, are exempt from taxation, even if the amount exceeds £50,000. This exemption applies to various relationships, including siblings, parents, children, and their spouses. However, gifts from friends or non-relatives exceeding certain thresholds may be subject to tax.

No not taxable

But isnt cash over 50k taxable?

Yes it is taxable but not for immediate blood relation.
Gift received from Relative is completely exempt
Immediate blood relation is completely exempted sec 56
