30 Soon-To-Be Married People Exposed For Their Sense Of Entitlement (New Pics)
Interview With Expert
Every bride and groom wants a perfect wedding. It ideally only happens once in a lifetime, and wanting the event to turn out exactly how they envisioned it is understandable.
However, some would step on other people’s toes just to let things fall into place, which is unacceptable. Thankfully, we have the internet to expose such entitled behavior.
Scroll through to find screenshots showing ridiculous requirements, self-serving actions that put other guests in potential danger, and monetary gift requests to fund a honeymoon. Hopefully, you have never experienced any of these.
You will also find our interview with Kaitlin Shea, a Colorado-based wedding planner. She was kind enough to share her insights on entitled clients.

This Literally Just Happened - "I Want My Own Wedding Year"
YOU GET ONE DAY. ONE. NOT THE WHOLE YEAR.
horseloving panda 1 year ago
My uncles got married the same weekend, it was at a hotel and the brides were best friends. They rented out the hotel and an outdoor open side marquee. The first uncle had a night time wedding inside with fairy lights and an outdoor reception on Saturday. The second uncle had a sunset wedding outdoors and a reception inside on Sunday. It was super cool because everyone was already there and it was just super special

I'm willing to extend the time for a week, as usually weddings fall on the weekends, so you have one week to float in your bridal excellancy. One day with guests, seven with inner circle, not a freaking year.

“Lose Weight If You Want To Be My Maid Of Honour”
Shannon Donnelly 1 year ago
I think weddings will get to the point where you'll be able to hire bridesmaids and maids of honor, just so brides are able to have their "perfect" wedding parties. Absolutely absurd, but that's the direction we're going in. Choose your wedding party by height, weight, hair color, hair length, attractiveness (don't want to outshine the bride!!), eye color, etc.
SheamusFanFrom1987 1 year ago
There are better things to do with your time anyway... You do you, sister.
Wedding planners like Kaitlin regularly deal with demanding clients. As she told Bored Panda, such behavior usually comes from people close to the couple, like parents, siblings, and entourage members. They usually have unwelcome opinions, which Kaitlin says frustrates the couple and makes them feel stifled.
“Your wedding opinions will absolutely matter when planning your own wedding, but when your job is to support another bride or groom, kindly put those opinions to the side,” she said.

My Mum Is An Artificial Florist And Had An ‘Influencer’ With 70k Followers Ask For Free Wedding Flowers For Exposure

Load More Replies... Daniel Atkins 1 year ago
Why did they edit out the beggar they need to be exposed. Give them some exposure.
zims 1 year ago
I've thought of a new reality show: six influencer couples compete for wedding services by posting about the businesses they're courting and trying to drum up business for them. Whoever get credited for securing the most paying business for the caterer, florist, venue, baker, dressmaker, entertainers, etc. gets a free wedding. Everyone else has to pay out of pocket. And they're not told who wins until after the wedding. The couples wed, eat drink and make merry, then gather for a torchlight ceremony. They all post their final glowing reviews then hand over their phones. The host announces the winning couple, they leave for their honeymoon, and the other five couples are filmed having hysterical breakdowns over all the outrageous things they bought when they thought it would be free. Blaming each other, their followers, etc.
Like people in customer service, handling difficult people is part of the job description of being a wedding planner. Kaitlin has her own method of handling these personalities: setting clear boundaries.
“Their own personal drama is NOT your personal drama, even if they try to make it so,” she explained. You can care deeply without sacrificing your sanity for what, at the end of the day, is still a job.”

I suspect this was meant to be funny; most likely expressing how - haha! - the wedding is the bride's big day; the bride directs it all, while the groom is just a quiet bystander (because she is so dominant, haha, or because he doesn't really care and would rather get drunk with his mates anyway, hoho!). Or, I mean, maybe this was Emilie's fifth wedding, and it featured Jon (as opposed to the previous ones, which featured Dave, Eric, Mark, and Mitch respectively).

This is all some form of societal mental illness. How have so many people lost sight of weddings being about celebrating relationships rather than creating a 2D image?

No one, legit no one, cares. Weddings are expensive and stupid to celebrate your marriage by going into debt before you start your life together. Have a reasonable wedding with friends and family and the fact this person thinks that another human being is anything but a true beauty of nature. Sure you can find others unattractive but to cut someone else out of the wedding all together means this marriage is done to only last a month. "Bridezilla moments" are just an easy way for people to know you're a psycho b***h.
For many people, living in the internet age means wanting to look good for the ‘gram. Because of this, Carson says people are now heavily focused on turning their weddings into fashion events.
As he points out, some guests may feel hassled by outfit requirements, adding to the already hefty cost of attending a wedding. Therefore, brides and grooms should expect some attendees to “go rogue” and ignore the guidelines.

Rahul Pawa 1 year ago (edited)
Exactly what I was thinking. SIL is barely better than OP. Who throws a gender reveal for their third baby? Even a baby shower is kinda pushing it at that point 🤐. Also if the SIL's parties are being intentionally set very close to the wedding activities, that adds to her narcissism score. They both come off looking terrible. ETA: oh, and I just remembered the bit about the SIL insisting the bride to be host the gender reveal. That seems like power-play, mind-fuckery to me.

I'm gonna side with the bride on this one. Everybody needs some level of attention, and to know they're special and important to the people who love them. Spending your whole life having to share the normal solo events can make you place higher importance on the one big event that's all about you. And now that time, attention, and excitement will be split between you and someone else yet again. AND she's being asked to host it to boot? She even acknowledges her response was childish. She's not being selfish, she's being normal. People are allowed to want things, and to vent when they can't have them.

They are selling their home to pay for the wedding? Are they planning to live on the venue afterwards? "I have regrets", yeah this whole post gave me regrets.
Wang Zhuang 1 year ago
I don't understand these people getting married above their means like this. You're willing to go tens of thousands of dollars in the hole for one day? What makes a wedding special is the commitment two people make to each other, not luxurious venues, clothing and gifts.
SnootWaggling Fox 1 year ago
It's not the guests' responsibility to pay for the plates. OP had an expensive wedding and that is independent of the values of gifts that should be expected. Aside from the one super generous $1000 gift, all of those sound in reasonable range. I'm not sure about $250 for a family of four, but isn't it supposed to be a dollar amount per person or couple and no gift expected from or on behalf of kids?
General Stukov 1 year ago
Yea, that's what it seems like, also it seems like the person gave $1k of not their money, maybe husband or wife is the breadwinner and that's not something to be proud of. "Hey! Sally gave 1k and she has no job." "Yea Becky is cause Tom is loaded and that's just how much she could spend before being noticed by the financier. "

50k debt?? Expected there'd be debt? Wow. Do they work s financial advisers ;) ?
Zena 1 year ago
From what I understand (not being in any way an etiquette expert), there has been in the past some common expectation that the value of the wedding gift should roughly equal the cost of the guest's meal at the reception. Note a few details: First, it's the value of the gift; it's not "give me cash to pay for your meal." Second, it's the rough cost of the guest's meal at the reception, not to take the total cost of the wedding and divide it up for the guests to pay "their share." And third, it was a common custom, not some kind of ordained rule. And I assume that except for the extremely rich, the cost of the meal at the reception wouldn't be excessive, and well within the range of a normal wedding gift. Nowadays, these grifters are all insane; why would anyone go into debt for a wedding?
Zena 1 year ago
"Costed" is a word, but it's not correct in this context. "Cost" as a verb meaning "to estimate how much something will cost" has "costed" as the past tense: "We costed out the plans for the wedding and determined that it was too expensive for our budget.", as said by none of these idiot brides, ever.

When you get married, plan a wedding YOU and your FIANCE can afford. The two of you are the hosts of the event. You do not ask or expect your guests to foot the bill. NOBODY on this planet owes you a wedding, including your parents. Miss Manners would spit in your faces.

A gift list is a good idea because people can know what you need, and also avoid buying something you already have or you are never going to use. Obviously, it should be one option, like you did, not compulsory, and there should be different prices, so that the guests can choose what they can afford.
