People Are Sharing Pics From The Most Tasteless Weddings They’ve Been To Or Seen Online (New Pics)
When you think about it, weddings are a perfect toxic cocktail that gives a chance for anything to happen. Ongoing tension, sleepless nights, bridezillas, tantrums, and even though everyone seems to be walking on eggshells… they’re still wearing army boots.
A fraction of these crazy weddings that basically feel like you’re watching a season of GOT end up on the notorious corner of Reddit known as r/WeddingShaming. It turns out, this is the ultimate online destination for roasting wedding themes, brides, grooms, decor, dresses, in-laws, outlaws, guests, Uncle Bob, vendors, buffet, flowers, or the lack of this stuff. The community’s description speaks for itself: “You name it, we shame it!” so without further ado, I leave the stage to the collection of weddings that will raise not only a brow but the hair on your head.
Psst! After you’re done, check out our previous posts from r/WeddingShaming here, here and here.

To find out more about surviving one heck of a wedding that ends up in the miscellaneous collection on r/WeddingShaming, we spoke with the Redditor Peedidhe who shared a screenshot of an invitation with a caption “I went to the wedding where the bride and groom hated vegetarians.” The image featured a rather rude remark on vegetarian guests: “We will be having a buffet style. It should accommodate all ways of eating, even those who chose wrong and lack taste buds—yes, I am talking to you, vegetarians!”
The Redditor told us that the menu consisted of turkey, ham, beef taquitos in eggroll wrappers, and plantains. “I ate a lot of plantains,” they added. They commented: “Honestly, it's their wedding. If they don't want to cater to vegetarians, that's ok! But... like to acknowledge that you don't have vegetarian food instead of pretending plantains are dinner.”

Peedidhe agrees that wedding planning in such chaotic times may indeed be a challenge for the couples. “As someone attempting to plan a wedding in these crazy times, people are getting cast in all sorts of unflattering lights because they don't want grandma to die because she thinks vaccinations are bad.”
According to the Redditor, the pandemic has created a pressure cooker of love, resulting in lots of proposals, and also a pressure cooker of expectation because weddings are supposed to be a certain way. If it was up to Peedidhe, weddings would be planned with guests as a priority. “I think weddings should be planned for the guests rather than for the couple, but I understand weddings that are planned for the couple. It's a celebration of love, and ultimately whatever makes you happy is the most important,” they said and added jokingly: “even if some people have nothing to eat.”
Wowzas.. Father Is More Interested Than The Aesthetics Of His Wedding Than A Life Long Relationship With His Daughter
A crap father with a crap fiancé. Poor child having to grow up with such selfish people. Good on the grandparents.

Animal Abuse! What A Nice Way To Celebrate Love!
Yeah, and nobody should be allowed to get any animal unless they prepare for owning one!
Or helping to get them owned, if you mean using them at weddings. I've seen weddings where they take litters of puppies, kittens, etc. from local shelters and have bridesmaids hold them instead of boquets of flowers. They usually all get adopted, and it's a lot cuter and more fun than boring ol' flowers.

People treat fish like objects :( it's so sad, they're intelligent animals and need good care.
I don't understand. Are they decorations or party favours? Either way, totally unacceptable.
Since there are several rows I assume they are party favours

I think I've told this here before, but when I was home from college one summer (in the 90's) my Dad's law firm had a party at our house. In the center of each table was a fishbowl with a Beta inside it. (My parents did not know about this part ahead of time - they just left it to the caterer) As they were cleaning up after the party I asked the caterer what they were going to do with the fish and she told me they planned to flush them down the toilet. :( I was SO pissed off!! I kept one fish for myself and found homes for as many others as possible, but unfortunately I was not able to save them all. We made sure that they did NOT flush any of the fish in our house at least, but we couldn't keep every single one. It was awful. The Beta I did adopt was with me for a long time and he went back and forth to college with me every year. He was a great pet. It should be against the law to use live animals as decoration!!
Please don't ever flush fish. Sometimes they survive and wreak havoc on ecosystems. Same with aquatic plants.

When a friend of mine got married (20+ years ago? ) she had goldfish as centerpieces. Her brother in law got smashed and went around betting people money he could swallow them whole, and preceded to do so. Please, even if it's "just a goldfish", they don't deserve that fate. 😕
Mine was a goldfish. Daughter won it at a school party. Never had one so bought a book to see how to take care of it. Hundreds of dollars later (first bowl, then a couple of tanks because it kept growing, medicine, food, filters) it lived for 14 years. Pretty good run for a "free" goldfish.
Did they even ask/know if any of their guests have the facilities to house them?!?!
I do not think that many of you are well educated on the subject based on the comments, but these are beta fish or Japanese fighting fish, and their natural habitat is literally PUDDLES. They are known for not needing oxygenators in their fish tanks, nor do they need large tanks. small bodies of water is their natural home and they are perfectly fine in a container such as this for quite a bit of time.
Bettas are very intelligent and people oriented, well, my Horatio may not be real smart...but he is a people fish!
If you wonder what’s up with these wedding hosts for behaving this way, you’re not alone. The bridezillas, tantrums, family dramas and whatnot have been all over the media lately, and they are grabbing our attention like nothing else. The audacity, the rudeness, the ego…
The corner of Reddit known as Wedding Shaming was created precisely to share such instances. According to the sub's moderator Luna, “There’s something about weddings, whether you’re invited or not, that just brings out the worst in people.” That’s not to say like all weddings are real-life dramas, but there’s a lot of elements in many of them. Luna believes that the group is akin to a reality TV show, and you can’t argue.

This is not even funny for non-vegetarians. I would skip that wedding.

But no matter how popular it may be, the group has also received a fair share of backlash. In fact, some claim it promotes mockery culture, even hate speech. But Darlene Lancer, clinical psychologist and the author of “Codependency for Dummies” and “Conquering Shame and Codependency” with whom we talked a while ago assured us that wedding shamers are not considered to be a hate group.
Darlene further explained that “Ironically, public displays of extravagant and ostentatious weddings may also be fueled by shame where the emphasis is on impressing other people of the family’s wealth and status.” Such behavior can be a compensation for not feeling adequate or sufficiently respected.

Wow really surprised and disappointed at the comments. Some people want people to be comfortable at their wedding and dress how best suits them. Perhaps, like my wedding, we took family photos "dressed up" and then people changed into comfortable clothes as it was outdoors and very warm. If the people getting married aren't complaining I don't see why anyone else would.

I'm really glad that I don't plan on getting married. And that nobody invites me to weddings.
I am getting married. Really exited. Im not batshit crazy tho. There is no dresscode, not expecting anyone to pay anything and im not excluding anyone bases on the age or looks. We just invited people who are close to us.

I know someone who I won’t name who's grooms dinner is on the first anniversary of his grandfather's death
i dont see whats wrong with number 4 its just a bit of fun, weddings dont have to be super serious
I once went to a wedding for my cousin(hes way older than me ofc) this was when i was younger. I have a huge family, and obviously there would be a lot of kids attending. The menu had all these fancy dishes for adults, and under kids it just said "chicken nuggets" I kid you not, just straight up chicken nuggets. We snuck in some food :))
I made it to #12 at the time of this writing (the dad who won't take his daughter to his wedding). I really hope these are trolls and not describing real situations.
Wow some of these are really abominable. And these people are tying the knot and possibly procreating. God help us.
A tradition in the US. The bride is supposed to be the only one who wears white.
