Some couples throw a wedding to celebrate love. Others simply do it to get a huge ego boost, free gifts, and a chance to play royalty for a night.
This second group is not hard to find. Entitled couples rarely hide their true colors — mostly because they genuinely believe their behavior is normal. From inviting a vegan guest only to feed them a bowl of plain lettuce, to badgering friends for expensive registry gifts, their demands know no bounds. Some even go as far as begging strangers online to fund their lavish “dream” day.
We at Bored Panda have rounded up some of the absolute worst examples of bride and groom entitlement — not just to share a good cringe, but to remind us all that no party is worth losing your grip on reality. Scroll through to see how bad it gets, and maybe take a mental note of what not to do when your own big day comes around.

Why doesn't the bride just dress up a bunch of mannequins instead? That's basically what she wants them to be. I bet they're not allowed to pee during the entire day either. 🙄

This Gem From 2018 | Severely Lowballing A Wedding Caterer
I am a professional caterer in california. For that menu, my company would charge around $150-175/guest. What she's asking for is absurd for a wedding. Wings in every flavor for 200 people? Swordfish? Omelette "station"? So she wants staff making food to order??? This is totally delusional.

The Wedding Reception Centerpieces Featured Betta Fish. The Bride And Groom Planned To Flush Them Alive
This happened when I was home from college one summer and my dad's law firm hosted a party at our house - where Betas were the centerpieces on the tables. The caterers told me the fish were just going to be flushed afterwards. I was SO mad. I kept one for myself and gave away the rest to friends. My fish, Blue, went back and forth to college with me for the rest of the years I was there. Who the heck thinks it's OK to use live animals as decoration and then just k.ill them afterwards??? 😡

Entitled Bridezilla Demands Her Bridesmaids Pay Everything To Look “Pristine” For Photos
The costs listed aren’t completely unreasonable and are about what I paid for myself for my wedding day (dress and shoes were higher of course). Though, I didn’t ask any of the wedding party to do anything other than get a dress in a specific color and something they actually liked. My niece found hers for about$15 and I didn’t care, it was cute and the right color. Same with my Matron of Honor. The rest of my party consisted of my kids and we worked to find something that they liked as well. But keep in mind, my ceremony was only slightly dressy. And we didn’t care what anyone else wore because we just wanted them there because we loved them.
By the way: I had my wedding in 2005, 200 guests, live band, huge barbeque on a rented farm. It cost a total of 5000€ and was the funniest event ever. I would do it exactly the same way again at any time, I would recommend everyone to move away from the specifications of the wedding planners, then you don't have to go into debt.
My wife and I got married at the courthouse 25 years back. Cost bugger all and we're still in love. Can't beat that! The people in these posts are the worst, most entitled people I can imagine. The really dumb thing is that they will likely never know true happiness (which is really contentment) with such a shallow mindset. It'll take deep, hard work to untie the deeply flawed knot of a personality these people have formed, if it is even possible. So I just thank the fates that I've been spared from exposure to such people.
