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.”

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.

I don’t think it’s funny but I don’t really care that they’re douches about eating animals. It’s standard. I’d be more worried that there wouldn’t actually be options since they won’t just be straightforward about what they are.

I will never understand why people care what others eat. As long as a vegetarian/vegan/gluten-free/etc person is not being rude or demanding about food, let them eat what they want!

I handle a lot of catering for events and every single time I order all vegetarian with a side of grilled chicken and have never had one complaint from the hundreds of attendees I have had to cater to. This anti-vegetarian stance is so bizarre.

I can't process meat well. It literally makes me ill. You're asking me to be sick because you think you know better. All that besides, if you think meat tastes good with zero seasoning on it, fine, but otherwise the thing that makes that meat taste good are the seasonings (aka herbs/plants and salt). So, in reality, we like the tasty stuff, you like the stuff that has to be fixed to taste good.

That's awful. My husband and I had a local BBQ place cater a buffet style. We specifically ordered one of the entree options as a vegetarian option because his sister and her husband are vegetarians. It's not like it cost anything extra and it was really good!

No vegetarian should consider himself or herself low enough to show up at the even of arseholes. And no one, at all, to begin with. Vegetarian jokes haven't improved since that day in 1997 when I heard all of them. So unique and quirky, hahaha ... not.

I have to come back to the taste bud accusation - this isn't even the point. No matter how delicious something might taste, if making it accessible includes the killing of a sentient being, the attempt to avoid this outweighs the pleasure of tasting it no matter what. The question the FuNnYoNeS are trying to display as answered by vegetarians does not even come up in the first place. Also - choose wrong? It's one thing not to agree, but a totally different thing it is to state that this was wrong. It isn't. This kind of meateating extremists start this debate all the time, use false claims as justification and start crying if someone dares to correct this as if their freedom of opinion would be violated, while any opinion isn't even involved yet, and also the right to believe whatever you want does not make any falste claim which is in support of your view right. Facts, we gotta agree on - the conclusions, opinions, implications may vary broadly, but facts are not a personal thing

It's not so much that's insulting, it's that it's a performance kind of response to a very basic question. It's like when you ask someone for the time, or when the next train is and they feel the need to give you a one-liner. It's even weirder if it's for an even that you're hosting.

And personally, I find vegetarians and vegans a pain hte the neck. THat is YOUR choice, to be vegan of vegetarian. People with food allergies or other real problems with certain foods NOT expect to be individually catered for. If we can't eat the food provided then we simply do not eat.

It isn’t true. Meat eaters never like plain meat. They season animals with vegetables to get flavor. Don’t be stupid.

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.

ADVERTISEMENT

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.
