On your wedding day, you and your partner get to call all the shots. Planning to wear a camouflage dress? Interesting choice, but go ahead. Pressuring your guests into buying gifts that cost at least $1,000? Probably wouldn’t recommend it, but I can’t stop you! Hosting the ceremony on a trampoline? Just be careful not to fall down!
Brides and grooms are entitled to have the weddings of their dreams, even if they have pretty bizarre dreams, but that won’t stop people online from mocking them for their choices. Bored Panda has scoured the internet to find photos of the most questionable and trashy decisions couples have ever made when tying the knot. So enjoy scrolling through these pics that might make you cringe, and keep reading to find a conversation with Jhona Yellin, Editor at Bespoke Bride!

My Mum Is An Artificial Florist And Had An "Influencer" With 70k Followers Ask For Free Wedding Flowers For Exposure
I once asked an influencer what the statistics were for sales from posting products from a company on her Instagram account - She wanted me to give her free s**t. She said I have $100,000 Instagram followers. I let her know that wasn't an answer and I would like to know how many of those clicks from her Instagram to the company's website resulted in a sale. She said she has no idea. That's not what she does. 🙄
And even if her 100,000 followers were real people and not bots, how many of them are in your local area or country? How many have disposal income? Are they mostly teenagers who like her pictures but buy nothing she recommends? I think that if an influencer’s channel is focused on a certain topic then people might be more likely to buy their recommendations. If she is a baker and recommends baking products people might trust her knowledge. If she’s a make up artist and posts about make up people might buy what she recommends. And if someone recommends a ton of different brands then surely people won’t engage but if they only recommend good products then they might be seen as more honest.

Bride Gets RSVPs From Wedding Guests And Only After The Fact Tells Everyone Who Said They Were Coming That They Need To Pay $75 Per Plate
They even gave her an opportunity to learn from it, but apparently they didn't want to.
People rarely take such an opportunity when freely offered.
Load More Replies...I could get a great meal somewhere else for less than $75. I have to wonder if anyone attended.
I'm baffled by this one. In my country we pay for everything, bridesmaids dresses with accessories hair and makeup, the groomsmen outfits and shoes. We also feed everyone. I've never in my life heard of anyone having a wedding and expecting the guests to pay! Even the idea of asking someone to be my bridesmaid and then saying you have to pay for everything yourself makes me so uncomfortable and quite frankly, sick.
My sister has gone to a wedding before where only after them had bought gifts at the registry from the shops they chose, the guests were then told the reception was at a restaurant and each person had to pay their own meal. They never went to the wedding, many of my friends didn't go for the same reason. I wasn't in the country at the time.
I do love the language, don't you? "Caveats beforehand ..", "Our acceptance is rescinded ..", "Terminates call .." Who talks like this in 2024?! Gotta love it.
Load More Replies...So I have a slightly different perspective... When we attend weddings we generally put enough money into a card to cover what would be the cost of our meals (usually around $300) but that is the "gift" to the bride and groom as well. If they have paid for their own wedding they aren't out any money and if the parents have paid the couple has received a gift. If you are invited to a wedding set a budget you are comfortable spending for the gift and if you're expected to pay for your meal remove that cost from the gift cost IMO. Is that bad? Have I been doing it wrong all these years? Let me add I have never been to wedding where we were specifically asked to pay for the meal...
I don't think you're doing it wrong at all. The difference is that you've made this decision and not had someone decide it for you & demand that you pay. I've been to weddings before where it was requested to pay for your own meal, and there's nothing inherently wrong with that. Sometimes people are on a super tight budget, but most people put it in the invitation so that the guests are aware of the expectation before they decide to rsvp. Though I can definitely say that the people who asked certainly didn't act like this person. Yikes 😬
Load More Replies...We were invited to FAMILIES dinner which has always been...we'll, free.y bil had bought $$$ cut of meat and asked guests to pay up. Idk but this has never sat right.
If it was a wedding I wanted to attend the. I'd just assume paying for your meal was what they wanted instead of a gift. 150..00 might be big for a gift but is not really high. It's be great then if every guest just paid for their dinner instead and no gifts.
You'd be assuming incorrectly - people with the gall to charge admission to their wedding/reception also expect a gift.
Load More Replies...We've all been to a wedding or two where the bride and groom made some questionable choices. Perhaps they demanded that all guests dress to fit a very specific color scheme, or they informed guests on the day of that they would be expected to pay for their food and drinks at the reception. We tend to overlook these annoyances when we're celebrating people we love, but it's a lot easier to judge strangers online for making bizarre choices at their weddings...
The photos on this list might give you strong secondhand embarrassment, but spreading awareness about bad bridal behavior might convince some couples to tone it down. Your wedding should absolutely be a wonderful day that you remember for the rest of your life, but it should be a great memory for all involved. And if your best friends are pouting the whole time because you forced them to get hair cuts for the ceremony or spend $500 on shoes, your priorities might be a little bit out of whack.
Bride Cancels Her Wedding Because Her Guests Didn't "Donate" $1,500 Each To Fund The Event
Oh, promises promises. My crazy uncle has disowned the rest of us a dozen times, he keeps wandering back.

The fact that they checked the CCTV footage to check how many slices of cake the guests each had is ridiculous!

Load More Replies...Wedding Shoot
I photographed a 6 hour wedding for $150. Got harassed for months because I didn't "give [them] enough photos." It was the last time I took a paying photography gig (this was 10 years ago).
Wasn't there a post about someone 'firing' their photographer because they found somebody who'd do it for $50? And then after the pictures turned out badly (shocking!) because they were taken by a Lenovo knock-off phone, the bride started pestering the original photographer to reimburse her for the pictures because it was the photographer's fault she did not have a single decent photograph. "You should've warned me that I was making the wrong decision!!!"
We got our photographer for £400 and that was mates rates as he knew our planner.
They should have replied with an apology saying they'd realised they'd missed the 1 off the front of the 400.............$1400 👍It's ridiculous to underprice work like that 🤦🏻♀️
They want professional services at yard sale prices. Let them use their phones for pics... or get some of those disposable cameras to hand out to guests - if they still make those things, that is.
To gain more insight into this topic, we reached out to wedding expert and Editor at Bespoke Bride, Jhona Yellin. Jhona was kind enough to have a conversation with Bored Panda about some etiquette brides and grooms should keep in mind, while still making their big day all about them.
"When it comes to gifts, we tell our brides-to-be to always think of their registry as a treasure map for their guests. Provide a variety of price points to make everyone comfortable," she shared. "And if Aunt Marge gifts you a third toaster, smile, thank her, and quietly handle the return. Nobody needs to know about the great toaster swap of 2024. By the way – we created a fun guide on curating a wedding registry for the home of your dreams."
Hey, I Know That I've Given My Wedding No Thought But I Want You To Dedicate The Next 48 Hours Of Your Life To It
I just have to appreciate the bakers response of "Have a good night". Good on you. It would take a lot of self control not to try and put this person in their place so way to take the high road! I don't' think I could have! :P
Apparently she's a beginner on common sense and critical thinking.
They can also travel across the ocean in some measly 10 minutes on TV. All those pilots in real life must be beginners. Sigh. How do people like that even make it alive and relatively unharmed to their current age?
I...I don't have words.😦 ok maybe I have words...this reminds me of one of my friends growing up telling me she wanted to be an actress because people on TV only work for 30 minutes a day. Like her little aquarium gravel brain legit thought that TV actors only worked whatever length of time the show was on for. It genuinely made me question whether I'd had a stroke because who could be that dense? Now I know
"Have a good night", I feel there are other words that want to be said lol.
Not Invited To The Wedding, But Still Pay For It
My husband's uncle should have put a cap on the amount he was willing to pay for his daughter's (first) wedding... it was well over $20,000 in the early 90's and it didn't last a year. He was paying off the bills for years after the marriage was over. Then she had the audacity to be angry that he wouldn't do it again for the second marriage... it's a good thing he didn't because that one didn't last either.
Wow...when I got married I found out it was apparently pretty common for bridesmaids and groomsmen to pay for their own dresses/suits. I couldn't even ask them to do that (not judging anyone whose bridal party paid for themselves just stating my experience)! I couldn't imagine asking someone not even invited to give me money for my wedding! How crazy!
If I'm not sleeping with the bride, groom, or both then I'm not paying.
I just don't get the whole wedding-industrial complex. You just don't need all that stuff! Have the wedding you can afford.
SO. MUCH. THIS. I can’t believe how many otherwise sensible women get sucked into the vortex of the whole “it’s—the-most-important-day-of-your-life” c**p and then spend unholy amounts of money on it when they(or their families) can’t possibly afford it. I just don’t get it…..
Load More Replies...A friend and I were invited to my (I thought) best friend's church wedding, but not to the country club reception. She told us we were invited to go to her mother's house after the wedding for "cocktails". All we could think was "Is she not inviting her own mother to the reception? Are we supposed to break in and help ourselves to the liquor?" We were the female half of the wedding party, but not invited to the reception? She had a 100-person limit, so she dumped us, but still expected us to be in the wedding. Luckily, she was stupid enough to tell us this before our dresses were done, so we were able to cancel them. We never set her straight about not coming to the wedding, either. Since we didn't know anyone who attended, we have no idea how it turned out. I know I would have been uncomfortable being married with only family and strangers, but no friends, in attendance.
My Friend Saw This Sign At Her Hotel This Week. Oh Yeah, That Guy Jon Is Coming Too
This is actually kinda funny. Especially if Jon knows and also finds it funny and so do their family and friends
I'm thinking (hoping!) this was an inside joke with family & friends.
I think this is a little bit funny. It requires a certain target audience but they should know who they are inviting.
Jhona also noted that setting a dress code can be fantastic, but it's important to be reasonable. "Asking your guests to show up in ball gowns and tuxedos might be a tad much for a beach wedding," she shared. "'Black tie optional' is sophisticated; 'lavender sequin jumpsuits' is a bit... Eccentric. Also for this, by the way – we created a post about creative wedding dress codes that are in fashion today."
"Just remember, these wedding guests are your friends and family who love you enough to wear matching outfits," the expert added. "Appreciate their effort, don’t turn them into personal assistants, and remember they have lives (and wallets) too."
This Literally Just Happened - "I Want My Own Wedding Year"
You are not a bad person. You are an entitled imbecile who thinks the universe revolves around you.
Same week would be a bit rude, same month would make it a bit too busy for everyone, but same year is 100% normal and acceptable.
I wonder what type of life she must have that makes this wedding the only time she gets any attention/validation from others.
She probably demands, and gets, plenty of attention. Just because she said "for once in my life," that doesn't mean it's true.
Load More Replies...Why are there so many brides that want the wedding to be about "them", like there are no grooms involved. Why do these men want to marry women like this?
Three of my friends had their weddings in the same year as me, two of them in the weeks surrounding mine. I guess I should've been extremely upset and disowned them?

What is wrong with her to be dressing like a bride at someone's wedding?
That is why every bride needs a bottle of red wine in her bridal suite, and a bridesmaid willing to walk with a glass and "trip" by the other woman wearing a wedding dress.
A Photographer Friend Of Mine Posted This (We Are In Louisiana). I Can't Wait To See Some Of The Mashed Potato Pictures
Why not just buy rice, which is traditional anyway, a large sack of rice would be cheaper than multiple boxes of instant mashed potato.
Iirc people stopped doing that because it's bad for birds when they eat it. (Cooked rice seems to be less popular 😆)
Load More Replies..."Honey, just hear me out. Instant mashed potatoes that could serve as confetti AND dinner?" "Brilliant! And if the guests lick the potatoes off each other, we might even end up with an orgy! They won't stop talking about our party for decades!" "And this is why I am marrying you, Joe. You're a Piggly to my Wiggly."
Do you love me? (I can really move) Do you love me? (I'm in the groove) Now do you love me? (Do you love me now that I can dance?) Watch me, now (Work, work) ah, work it out baby (Work, work) well, I'm gonna drive you crazy (Work, work) ah, just a little bit of soul, now? (Work) Now I can mash potatoes (I can mash potatoes) I can do the twist (I can do the twist) Tell me, baby, do you like it like this? Tell me (tell me) tell me
We also asked the wedding expert how friends and family members can know when it's time to speak up and try to reign in the bride and groom. "When the bride or groom’s requests start sounding like they belong in a royal decree, it’s time to step in," Jhona says. "Close family or friends are the best candidates to have 'the talk.' Pick a moment when the bride or groom isn’t mid-meltdown — preferably over a calming cup of tea or a stiff drink."

The Audacity Of This Wedding Guest And Their Mum! Plan Your Own Special Moment, Cheapskates
Don't propose or announce a pregnancy at someone else's wedding. It's not that hard.
But how else can they be the centre of attention at somebody else’s wedding? Do you expect them to spend all day being happy for another person when the attention should be on them? They’re the main character not the bride and groom. And clearly that’s what his mum believes as well.
Load More Replies...It's not rude to ask something like that. I have seen many brides online who make that possible for friends. However, they have to accept a No if the bride and groom don't want an engagement to happen at their wedding.
You got down voted yet you are absolutley right! I have seen many instances like you said. Friends getting narried and they set it up for their friend to be surprised and proposed to. Obviously friends talked about doing it before hand or the friends suggested it or the other one asked. I 100% agree with you. It is only okay if everyone is cool with it. If I ever get married I would definitley do something like this with a friend. Weddings are not about a specific individual anyway. They are about 2 families and 2 people coming together to have and to hold and to love unconditionally. Yet for some selfish and self serving reason some brides make it only about them. That really tells you all you need to know about a person for real. It's just wild to me that folks are like that. :/
Load More Replies...Someone proposed at friend's wedding. But couple did it in private, without anyone around, and didn't tell anyone until it was few weeks after wedding. I guess they didn't have the best timing, but OK. I think that proposing in front of audience is tacky.
I'm getting old. Haven't seen SM written for Social Media before. My brain automatically read it as S&M and everything kind of tilted for a sec, lol. Okay, back on track, don't mind me.
Load More Replies...Uninvite, unfriend, unbelievable. Unacceptable! After a scathing reply
That's fine. Well, ish. Some people like it and find it wholesome wanting to share the great day to others. On the other hand some others it should be a special day for the husband/wife and it's their choice to have some attention taken from their special day or not. Both or equally in the right however if the bride/groom don't want to do it, then don't. It's their choice
Saw This At A Wedding
We had a Halloween themed wedding and these would've been perfect!
Load More Replies...This seems like it would be found at a fun wedding that isn't so uptight about everything. 10/10 Would Attend
It's also important to tread lightly when addressing a bride's unreasonable behavior. "Use 'I' statements to keep it gentle," Jhona recommends. “'I’m worried that asking guests to arrive by helicopter might be a bit much. Not everyone has their pilot’s license, you know?' This approach keeps the conversation constructive and less confrontational."
Bride Is Expecting Everyone To Spend $400 Or More On Her Wedding Gifts
Did anyone else notice all the I, my and me's?? Also, all gifts seem bride oriented. ; - (
I am sure the groom just wanted a wedding ceremony and maybe a party. And then his soon-to-be-wife got excited about the decoration, the dress, the gifts... So he sighed saying to her: Okay honey, it is your big day, do whatever you like. Just remember that it needs the two of us in church to get married.
Load More Replies...I'm actually curious as to how someone develops that level of audacity and entitlement. I mean, seriously...to put something like this out into the world...and apparently it never occurred to her how greedy and tacky this was? Damn!
For some reason this one just screamed Kartrashian to me. IDK why.
Load More Replies...RIP those who have RSVP'd already. Also, how have 12 people liked or loved this?
Maybe it’s the 12 people responsible for making her this way.
Load More Replies...You don’t have to buy her a car. You could pay for floors for the entire house. She’s “appreciate” it.

A Guest Filled 7 Tupperware Containers With Food From The Wedding Reception And Gave The Couple 5 USD As A Gift
Send her a bill like the woman who ate 2 slices of cake. If it had been me, I would’ve taken the containers from the rude guest and say “ thank you so much for your help. I wasn’t sure how I was going. to get all of this home or to the homeless. You are just so helpful!! I’ll get your Tupperware back to you as soon as I can. See you next Tuesday!
A party of groomsmen should have stopped her at the door and threatened to call the police.
My sister's mother-in-law used to take whatever wasn't nailed down whenever she ate out. We're talking dinner rolls, pats of butter, plastic forks--even ketchup, mustard, and mayo packets at fast-food joints. This woman is more than well-off. I think it's a symptom of a mental disorder.
I know some in-laws that showed up to their son-in-law's birthday pool party. His mom and sister had a bunch of pizzas delivered and furnished all the drinks. The in-laws showed up, took several boxes of pizza, and left. They didn't put anything into the party. These people weigh about 400 pounds each... none of them work.
A Pregnant Alien Officiant
I've seen this one before and iirc there was context that said the bride and groom loved it (though I admit that the title is clickbaity). I'll try to look for it. Edit: "FOR THE RECORD: the original poster shared context in the comments and this was absolutely loved by the bride and groom, who approved a wild character officiant, and who have a thing for aliens and cryptids. There was no shame here. Only delight. I guarantee if they'd wanted her in something plain, that's what she'd have worn. Not everyone has the same vision for their wedding, and this one was loved."
Lots of people appaently want to be married by a fake Elvis, a fake Captain Kirk, etc. Big business in Vegas.
Load More Replies...My youngest daughter's close friend was the officiant for her wedding, and she wore one of those inflatable T-Rex costumes (with the bride and groom's permission, of course). She even found a lovely formal dress to fit it. It was awesome!
Which part didn't she tell them in advance - the pregnancy or the alien. Or was it both? If they didn't know about her being pregnant, just how often do they see each other? Also, I would not be happy if the celebrant turned up at my wedding as an alien without giving me the heads-up (the pregnant part is totally okay).
Good thing the aliens in question don't reproduce with spores. Too dusty.
Load More Replies...Jhona says that, yes, the wedding is all about the happy couple. "But let’s not forget about the lovely folks who are there to celebrate your love. Your guests have put in effort to be there—time, travel, and probably a new pair of shoes," she explained. "Make sure they’re well-fed, entertained, and can hear the vows without needing binoculars and a sound system worthy of Coachella."
Father Is More Interested In The Aesthetics Of His Wedding Than A Lifelong Relationship With His Daughter
Poor child, her mother abandons her and her father is choosing his fiancee over her. I hope she has other adults in her life who can show her love.
I hope the older sister has the little sister's back because this is a mess.
Load More Replies...WOW. I feel So sorry for this guy's children, especially the youngest. If the mother left when she was 6 and she's now 9 and this creep has been with his "exquisite" fiancee for 3 years, is the now fiancee why the mother left? And this poor child has to LIVE with these 2?
WTF did I just read?!!! Poor kid. Is it unrealistic to hope the older sister, at least, kicked off about it?
damn if I was the older sister I would ditch both of those a******s and go take my baby sister to do something fun instead. That poor kid. Not only does her father start dating as soon as he was divorced but his new chosen spouse hates her enough to exclude her from the wedding?? she is 9!
Just the fact that this man will marry a woman who openly hates one of his children tells me he is scum. He does not derserve children. Poor poor kid. I hope she has a good mother and stepdad because her biodad obviously does not care for her in any way.
All he cares about is his precious fiancée and her wants and needs, really expensive wants and needs obviously.

Wedding Photo Contract Request
Wonder if she asked the same thing about her wedding dress? Does this work both ways? Will guests have their monetary and material gifts returned should you divorce?
And if they have children, can they return them to the maternity ward?
Hahaha some of these people are deranged! Why should the photographer have to suffer if a couple breaks up after the wedding? Do they expect a refund from the wedding venue too?
Jhona also added that we should never underestimate the power of appreciation. "Gratitude is your best accessory," the expert says. "Thank your guests, your vendors, and especially the person who managed to find your lost ring. A simple 'thank you' can make everyone feel like they’re part of something special."
This "Vegan Pizza" Was Provided At A Wedding Last Night
That is a terrible catering service. Not so much the bride and groom being horrible. I'd definitley like to know who they hired to cater their wedding. That way I know who not to contact while planning a wedding.
Any decent catering service can roast or pan fry some veggies with olive oil and some seasoning to accommodate a vegan diet
Load More Replies...I wouldn't even consider this pizza. I'd call it pizza-shaped bread and a 1/4 order of veggies.
This single sliver of bell pepper looks like malicious compliance by the catering service. "You want vegan pizza? I'll show you vegan pizza!"

Why?..... there is vegan sauce and "cheese" out there in this world- any "chef" would know that! Smh

Friend Won’t Gift Me A $300 Wedding Cake. The Entitlement Is Strong With This One
300$+ is much for a present. Even if she consideres it as a present, the bride should definitely pay for the ingredients.
Is it $300 for ingredients alone? Because if it is, then baking and decorating time means this “present” is worth much more than $300.
Load More Replies...My mom baked wedding cakes as the present for several family members. She went to them and offered. No one ever demanded it of her. She also wasn't a professional baker. It was a side gig. Mind you, they were nice cakes, but just your basic wedding cake. The weddings were all in the late '70', early '80's.
Because i'm so sure the op gives $300 gifts / makes incredibly expensive gifts for her friends' weddings.
I made my own wedding cake, not the prettiest but it was tasty and I had fun making it.
Finally, Jhona urges couples not to lose sight of what the day is really about: your love and commitment. "No one will remember if the napkins were periwinkle or powder blue, but they’ll remember the heartfelt vows and the epic dance moves," she told Bored Panda. "Many guests appreciate these days eco-friendly weddings, so if you can - add some sustainable elements to make your wedding a bit 'Greener.' Here are some tips and ideas for a sustainable wedding."
"In the end, weddings are about celebrating love, surrounded by those who matter most. Keep it joyful, keep it real, and most importantly, keep it fun," the expert added.
This Person Doesn’t Want To Drive A Free BMW Or Tesla To His Wedding
My wife and I met on a trail ride. We rode from the church to the reception in a wagon that was pulled by mules.
And my husband and I arrived together tandem bicycle, towing our corgi bridesmaid in her own flowery carriage.
What a complete, and utterly pathetic dillhole the guy begging for a freebie is... Let him rent his own prestige motor!
Being in the business of renting nicer cars I have had a lot of people rent the cars for weddings. Usually looks awesome. With the amount of people that wreck the cars and her criteria being "an expensive car" I would be double checking her insurance limits and driving record. Plus I'd personally roll up on either a model 3 or an M3 and be happy, not to mention appreciate from a friend.
Who needs a car? My plan is to get married on a pirate ship. During a swordfight. This might explain why I am single.

Wedding Favors Are Engraved Bullet Casings With The Date And The Couples' Names On Them
I can't think of anything more cringe or out of touch. Actually, turned my stomach the first time I saw them. Hope none of their guests have any family or friends who have been victims of gun violence! Shame on this couple for being so totally tone-deaf in today's climate.
Southern California wedding, by the way. Not that it matters. I wouldn't find this acceptable in any state.
Isn't the phrase here's a bullet with your name on it something negative and bad? I'm pretty sure it is, and that is exactly why this is absolutely ridiculous and insane.

Very poor taste and this is from the mother of a gunsmith. I don't care for them myself, I have done some target practice here and there to get familiar with what he has if I ever needed to protect myself from an intruder. Hopefully the 2 85 lbs German Shepherds will give anybody a clue to stay away.
We don't necessarily know the context here. I know people who own a gun range, they would find this an amazing wedding favor.

Gifts Determine Where Guests Sit At The Wedding
And don’t you open gifts after the wedding? Who is standing there checking all the presents as people come in?
Load More Replies...Apart from the fact that this is super rude, how would they manage that? Do they open every gift before the guest enters the venue and decide on the spot where they will be seated? Sounds like a total mess for me.
I was thinking the same thing. Which kind of leads me to believe that this is just fake. Someone just posting it for outrage and to get a reaction maybe? I know that there are definitely people out there that would act just like this. But it wouldn't even be possible because they wouldn't know who's giving what gifts. Just seems unlikely to me.

I did wedding photography for friends for free since I enjoyed the hobby. It's so much work and stress to do it for money. No demands were included and I told them they get what they pay for. All said they were happy but if someone included any of the demands this person had would have told them to kick rocks for sure.
I got married on the beach with the only attendees being my husband, the officiant and me. It took less than an hour and we paid $800.00 in 2001. We tipped the photographer as well as it was an early morning wedding. These people are DELUSIONAL.

Well, I wouldn't call it a tip, but here in Brazil it's pretty common to give some money to the couple to "start their life together".

The Bride and groom sent out "rules for the wedding" one of which was that they expected every each member of the wedding party to pay $3,000 for the privilege of being in the wedding.

Guy is in an SS uniform. Bride has "88" on her, that is neonazi code for "heil hitler". Looks like the guy on the right has a holster and gun in the open.
Load More Replies...That isn't an SS uniform - it's a regular WWII German army uniform. SS uniforms have the "lightning" SS insignia on the collar. This one has the typical army bars. That is a Nazi eagle on the right breast, swastika and all, and a ribbon bar on the other side. Not clear enough to see what rank and military branch this numbnuts is pretending to be.

When The Guest's Presence Is Not A Good Enough Present
Some people are just too poor to be buying extra stuff in life that aren't necessities. Being that broke myself, I get it. There have been times I wanted to refuse going to someone's birthday party because I couldn't afford to get them or make them a gift, but I showed up anyway because it would look more insulting if I didn't; as if the person's birthday wasn't important to me and I had something better to do that day.
For many people...especially extended family and friends...being there is a big contribution. They took time off and spent money (gas, food, etc.) to celebrate your day.
In the US, and I suspect other countries, you have a year to give a gift.
Is that a historical tradition or is that something you have actually seen? Because that sounds like something that might have been okay a long time ago but stopped being done in modern weddings.

Just a reminder to people that the whole “guests should not wear white” isn’t exactly a wedding rule everywhere in the world. I bought a gorgeous silver coloured dress recently for a different event and my parents suggested I wear it to my friend’s wedding. They were so surprised when I told them of the “no white” rule cause they’ve never heard of such a thing (they’re not very active online but have been to several weddings in the past few years). I’m still not gonna wear white but it got me thinking that people shouldn’t go around bashing guests if they wear white cause there’s a chance that such a restriction doesn’t exist where they’re from.
So many "rules" are cultural. Everybody does not know every culture's "rules" so should not be bound to them. For example, in many cultures wearing white is a sign of mourning for the dead. Also in many cultures the bride wears red, or other colors. Remember, "the bride wears white" was originally a European cultural sign of Virginity. The bride wore white to show she was a virgin.

She eliminated almost everything on the list and opted instead for what she considered highly artistic photos of just her and the groom in bar (they allowed us to use for pre-wedding staging with bridal party). Things like him hiking up back of her dress to grab bum with both hands and show off her tattoos. Photographer explained that these were not in her area of expertise, but she'd accommodate the bride.

Just a reminder to people that the whole “guests should not wear white” isn’t exactly a wedding rule everywhere in the world. I bought a gorgeous silver coloured dress recently for a different event and my parents suggested I wear it to my friend’s wedding. They were so surprised when I told them of the “no white” rule cause they’ve never heard of such a thing (they’re not very active online but have been to several weddings in the past few years). I’m still not gonna wear white but it got me thinking that people shouldn’t go around bashing guests if they wear white cause there’s a chance that such a restriction doesn’t exist where they’re from.
So many "rules" are cultural. Everybody does not know every culture's "rules" so should not be bound to them. For example, in many cultures wearing white is a sign of mourning for the dead. Also in many cultures the bride wears red, or other colors. Remember, "the bride wears white" was originally a European cultural sign of Virginity. The bride wore white to show she was a virgin.

My gift to her was a photographer - friend of mining starting up her business, but would cut me a deal for the day for experience and portfolio shots. Niece was aware of this. Photographer provided a list of traditional photos, asked niece to eliminate what she didn't want and add any that she did. She eliminated almost everything on the list and opted instead for what she considered highly artistic photos of just her and the groom in bar (they allowed us to use for pre-wedding staging with bridal party). Things like him hiking up back of her dress to grab bum with both hands and show off her tattoos. Photographer explained that these were not in her area of expertise, but she'd accommodate the bride. The photos were amazing, even if not what you'd expect, and the bride complained about every. single. picture.
Perhaps she should have had her tattoos touched up for the occasion, lol.

Warm pita, caramelized onions & red peppers & fried goat cheese and it's the BEST DISH. I promise. Use the cheese as dip with your triangle pita pieces with some onions and pepper on it and enjoy. I promise you'll love it.
I once went to what was described as a "Gong Show" wedding. Everybody (including the Bride, Groom, and Minister) wore a funny costume. During the vows everything stopped for acts; the Groom Juggled, then the Bride yodeled, then the minister played the accordion. Everybody else was expected to give a novelty performance. Tackiest thing I ever witnessed. (I sneaked out half-way through.)
Our wedding was right at 5k. But most things were donated as gifts. Photographer, dinner, flowers, etc. but THEY offered. I didn't demand or even ask.
