Weddings are a time for celebration, love, and… outrageous demands? Yep! From ridiculous gift requests to pay-per-slice cake policies, some couples take their wedding planning to a whole new (and expensive) level. So grab your popcorn and prepare for these jaw-dropping tales of matrimonial madness! 1. Vegas Wedding, but Don’t Forget the Pricey Gift! My cousin Susy announced she was having a small Vegas wedding because “money’s tight.” Fair enough, right? But then, a week later, she sent out a gift registry to everyone not invited, asking for high-end items! Despite her being my maid of honor and covering her expenses at my wedding, she wanted me to spend $500 on a mixer I wouldn’t even see in action. Hard pass, cousin.
“We’re off to Vegas! Here’s our registry — gifts only, please!” 2. When Your Maid of Honor’s Dress Costs More Than the Wedding I had a modest wedding — $80 for my dress and $30 for my maid of honor’s gown. However, she decided her dress needed $100 in alterations, surpassing the cost of my entire bridal ensemble. To top it off, she expected me to cover her expensive shoes too. Let’s just say my bank account felt the wedding stress. 3. The Wedding with VIP Guests and Leftover Cake for the Rest Imagine attending a wedding where half the guests got gourmet meals and open-bar access while the rest were left with a cash bar and grocery store cake. That’s exactly what happened at my “friend’s” wedding.
