The debate between having a kid-free wedding or a kid-friendly wedding is a tough one. On the one hand, weddings are all about celebrating family and extended circles of love, so why would you exclude children from that? It also takes away the burden of your guests trying to find childcare. On the other hand, …

‘We’re not real brothers’: Groom uninvites his adoptive siblings from his wedding after they renounce him as a brother, biased parents rescind their RSVP as an ultimatum
What makes someone your brother? Is it the strength of your relationship? Is it their inherent supportiveness? Or is it biology? Although all siblings (biological or adopted) always have a way of getting under our skin, when you’ve grown up with a particularly difficult sibling, even the smallest annoyances can set you off–that’s because, regardless …

Bride invites 9 out of 10 of her coworkers to her wedding, the 1 coworker calls out his exclusion during department meeting: ‘I could see the bride’s face visibly change’
Being excluded is no fun. It’s so troubling when you’re a tween and find out that the group chat you’re in has a smaller secret group chat for the people that everyone actually wants to hang out with. As you grow up, exclusion gets less and less frequent because you can deprioritize those who exclude …

Homophobic guy uninvites his gay brother from his wedding, parents blame the brother for bringing his personal life into the wedding: ‘My parents chastised me for my obvious disinterest and disregard of my brother’s life’
If there’s one thing I learned from growing up as a gay kid in Texas, it’s that nothing you do or say can change homophobic people’s minds. I was dead set on the idea that if I were funny, charming, and popular enough, I would be able to win over all of the homophobic kids …

Brother asks sister for $16000 for his wedding, is offended when she draws up a loan contract: ‘He’s defaulted on 2 car loans and his credit score is around the 470s’
As someone who just spent the whole weekend watching Four Weddings (the TLC show where four brides are pitted against each other and they have to vote on which one wins), I can confidently say that weddings are expensive. Even the lowest budget ones are usually north of $10,000, with no upper ceiling. There are …

‘It’s called having a party’: Non-imbibers bemoan the social pressure to have an open bar wedding, get roasted in the replies
There is so much tradition and rigamarole that goes into having a wedding. Not only in the ceremony, where most people follow arcane rituals of unveiling, escorting the bride, and using performative language to get it all done, but in the reception too. Recent tradition holds that you must have either a band or a …

Man is forced to work on his wedding day despite asking for leave 6 months prior: ‘His job will not remember this sacrifice’
We get so caught up in the everyday humdrum of life that we forget to take time out for the special things. That’s what holidays are best for– they make you stop your usual routine, slow down, and take in some special memories. It’s incredibly important to the human psyche. If we didn’t have holidays …

‘Don’t let sunk costs trap you’: No-regrets adults share tales of backing out on their already-paid-for weddings
Backing out on a wedding last minute can seem like a pretty reckless decision. Usually, you (or your family) have put down non-refundable deposits, notified the community, and bought some slick new duds. But marrying the wrong person just because some people spent some money is an even more reckless decision. Nobody knows this quite …

Wife wants to send back $7000 wedding gift because husband’s dance with sister was ‘too intimate’: ‘The gift just made her feel insecure’
Weddings are one of the only times that you have to dance as an adult publicly. Most of us enjoy a little boogie here and there under the cover of night and usually under the influence of something, on a night out on the town. But unless you’re a professional dancer, dancing in front of …
