‘She can’t trust you or the friendship’: Duplicitous woman hides 4-year marriage from best friend, casually slips it into conversation
I understand the desire to elope. Weddings are massively expensive and time-consuming, and if you’re a person who doesn’t thrive on attention and white dresses, it might not be for you. I feel like the public perception of elopements is that they only happen for illicit reasons… like if a couple is running from something, …

‘The bride burst into tears’: 20+ Hilarious moments when wedding guests didn’t ‘hold their peace’
I haven’t been to many weddings in my day, which I kind of regret because I love spectacle. Any time that a group of people gets together in the hopes of things going well, there’s always potential for things to go wrong. There’s too much comedic tension. Like funerals, when something is funny at a …

Controlling girlfriend forbids boyfriend from wearing a kilt to a wedding: ‘She needs to get over herself’
Kilts are rad. They have a long and storied history and culture, look fashionable, and let the legs breathe. What’s wrong with that? To some killjoys out there, though, kilts are apparently embarrassing for your boyfriend to wear. What are you afraid of? That he will outshine you and no one will notice your off-the-rack …

‘I hope this gets normalized’: Bride and groom request cash instead of gifts, sparks debate about wedding etiquette
If weddings are one thing, they’re not always romantic, inspiring, or even fun. They’re expensive. Even the cheapest weddings leave you with sticker shock. It’s no wonder that seemingly more and more couples are opting for nontraditional ceremonies, or skipping them altogether. If you don’t have thousands of dollars lying around (and most people don’t), …

‘You want a my child free wedding’: Bride throws child-free wedding, deliberately excluding her 17-year-old niece, the only ‘child’ in the family
I understand the appeal of a child-free wedding. After all, wedding ceremonies require the spectators to sit still and shut up, and wedding receptions usually have a lot of drunk people staying up late. Kids can’t always handle either of those situations, and sometimes it’s best to be better safe than sorry. There isn’t always …

‘Get this marriage annulled’: Deceitful husband goes behind wife’s back to help friend’s secret proposal
A good proposal story is worth its weight in gold. You can dine out for decades on the story of that time Mike got a skywriter to spell out «Will you marry me?» or hired the Backstreet Boys to serenade you in an empty ballroom. Not that proposals need to be spendy or decadent to …

«I’d bill her for the $450 she owes you»: Bridezilla un-invites bridesmaid to wedding after she spent over $1k on bachelorette party
Weddings can be high-stress operations and brides are under a lot of pressure to put on the perfect wedding. But weddings are expensive as heck.

Redditors Share Their Botched Wedding Stories
We put so much cultural importance on weddings, that when they go wrong, it can be devastating. With months, maybe years of planning, thousands of dollars spent, and the hopes and dreams of a whole marriage foisted upon one day, it can easily be the highest-stakes event of one’s lifetime. I once went to a …

Golden Child Tries to Upstage Her Sister By Wearing a Flashier Outfit at Her Wedding
There are very few wedding rules that apply across all cultures. One of those rules is that nobody should try to upstage the bride. Mothers of the groom have tried it before, wearing «ivory» to weddings where the bride is wearing white while aggressively trying to justify it. I feel like women who do things …
