Bride cancels wedding after guests won't pay for it.

    That can't actually be for real.

    Can it?


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,845 ✭✭✭timthumbni


    Sounds like a load of made up bull**** this one tbh. Though I know some real life bridezillas close to home.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,991 ✭✭✭Pauliedragon


    I think it's safe to say the groom dodged a bullet there.

    An American using UK English spellings makes it just that bit less believable...

    I'm calling fake. Has a young child but is going off backpacking for months alone? Doesn't ring true to me.

    I thought that myself. And the yanks don’t normally use the c runt word either.

    Apparently it was on a social media site for 15 mins then deleted. The bridesmaids were expected to cough up 5k? Insane I think


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,767 ✭✭✭GingerLily


    I'm usually okay okay to accept these things with a pinch on salt - but I call bull****!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,845 ✭✭✭timthumbni


    There was a better thread on here a while back about what people should give for a gift over here. Some people were saying over a 100 quid each. I find the whole thing disgusting tbh.

    There appears to be little to do with love in a wedding nowadays and more to do with a business transaction. Modern weddings are horrible bullsitty things in general. Went to one that didn’t take itself seriously and it was bearable. The rest was like ch8nese water torture...

    To paraphrase the star wars guy: "You can write this **** George, but you can't say it..."

    That whole thing is fake as hell, it does not at all read as something written genuinely.

    As the late Albert Reynolds was overhead to say many years ago...

    There are plenty of people with her attitude. It really shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone that this could be real. This part in particular confirmed it for me though -

    Susan’s partner still wanted to get married despite not being able to afford the grand wedding they had envisioned, so he suggested eloping to Las Vegas.

    ‘I laughed in his face but he was dead serious,’ she said.

    ‘He wanted those cheap, raggedy, filthy, whore-like Vegas weddings. I mean what the f*ck, was he out of his mind? Am I some Hooch piece of f*cking trash, a hooker?’ ‘My ex left the room and didn’t apologise for his horrid suggestion. I then called my maid of honour and cried my eyes out.

    ‘Instead of sympathy, I was told I was asking for way too much and I should stick to my budget.

    I just wanted to be a Kardashian for a day and then live my life like normal. I called her a filthy f*cking poor excuse of a friend and hung up.’


    Clearly not the most mature individual.

    That’s odd. Your quote spelt honour as honour, the tweet spelt it as honor. I don’t see too many britishisms except maybe the use of horrid.

    Looks fake as fook - way too try-hard. Similar style to the articles in The Sunday Sport.

    Funnily enough I have noticed them using it more often lately.

    It seems so over blown it has to be take I think.

    I dunno, like it was on facebook. Someone posted it on facebook. Thats serious. People don't lie on facebook.

    I don't like weddings, and I'm trying to think of any male friends I have who had a wedding because they wanted all that nonsense. It seems it's usually just done to appease the bride. I nearly got married myself after being given an ultimatum of marry me or else but thankfully it never happened.
    Can all of us men not just join together and refuse to have anything to do with them any more?


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,754 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    Weddings, where one has to pretend they were happy to be invited but wish they had been left off the list.

    Her ex-boyfriend and best friend at least got an escape plan from her.

    A bullet? Think he dodged a full blown atomic weapon.

    All eyes on Kursk. Slava Ukraini.

    I saw it on the Daily Mail too so it must be true.

    I refuse to believe!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,116 ✭✭✭✭RasTa


    Anyone who thinks that's real should get a 1 month ban from the site. That should teach them.

    But....then everyone clapped?

    What an absolute mentellar.

    Thinks she has class and comes off looking like trash. It's almost poetic.

    Can't be real, right?

    Of course not. There's no textspeak/emoji sh*te, which someone who says "I wanted to be a Kardashian for a day" would be pathologically incapable of omitting.

    Where is her father in all this I want to know. He should step up to his responsibilities and pay for. For her part, no woman should expect a wedding beyond what her father can afford to give her.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,013 ✭✭✭✭James Brown


    There was a gimmick a company started where the couple would post activities and items the guests were to crowd fund, beyond any gifts. 'A fancy meal for Johnny and Mary'. 'A day trip on a yacht for Johnny and Mary'. The practice may happen but I haven't heard of the company since.

    I've seen this story do the rounds hard to know if it's true.
    Some people make a massive ordeal out of planning weddings. When there's no real need. The weddings I find people enjoy the most are when people keep it local(Where possible) and they've good enough food. Lots of flapping around about things that aren't needed or speeding ages picking them out.
    Have the wedding you can afford.

    What does the husband have to say here?

    What does the husband have to say here?
    With this particular type of nutcase, he'll have no say about anything regarding the wedding and precious little to say after it. After she gets up the duff it'll be nookie once a year, or until she wants another baby that looks good on her Facebook page. The husband will be like the organic hand painted made from recycled yak droppings wallpaper in the background, out of focus.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Blatantly made up.
