10 Wedding Demands That Are Beyond Belief: Pushing the Limits of Greed

10 Unbelievably Greedy Wedding Demands That Push All Limits

Stupid wedding demands are the reason we’re here today! You’ll be glad your invitation got “lost,” because there will be pay-per-slice cake and Christmas-like gift lists. Prepare to laugh (and cry) as we examine ten weddings where the vows have a monetary value!

Weddings: a moment of happiness, love, and… total madness? You can bet! We’ve compiled ten stories of nuptial nonsense that will make you chuckle, wince, and possibly think twice about having a destination wedding. Some people take “bridezilla” to a whole new level, as these examples demonstrate, from money-grabbing cousins to hair-raising drama. Watch the train wrecks of matrimonial lunacy while you relax and munch on some popcorn!

1:Vegas, darling! Additionally, remember to bring a gift that you will never see in use.

The wedding of my cousin Susy was a master class in boldness. She started by sending out save-the-dates. Then crickets. I messaged her about invites since I was getting impatient.

“Oh, right now we’re just doing a little Vegas thing. It’s tight on money,” she chirped.

Okay, fair enough? False.

Everyone who didn’t make the cut received a cute little message a week later. “We are off for Vegas! This is our registry; please only bring gifts.

The worst part? I had paid for all of this girl’s expenditures, and she was my maid of honor.

Did she bring me a present? Not at all. At her reception, she wanted me to spend $500 on a mixer that I couldn’t even use to drown my sorrows. Cuz, hard pass. Vegas, baby, but without your expensive kitchen appliances!

2:When the cost of your maid of honor’s gown surpasses that of your wedding… I’m sorry!

My wedding was a low-budget event. My maid of honor’s gown will cost $30, and the dress will cost $80. However, my close friend determined that her gown required some care.

“Sure,” I replied, seeing a tuck here and a nip there.

It turns out that she spent $100 on adjustments after going all Project Runway! Her gown is now more expensive than my whole wedding attire. But there’s still more! It was time to go shoe shopping.

I said, “I’ll spot you,” when she failed to do so. Hey, it’s her dime, right? She chose some expensive sneakers. Again, incorrect.

She slapped me with, “Oh, I thought you were treating!” when I requested for payback. If I knew, I would have selected less expensive ones.

As I came to the realization that charity and wedding planning aren’t always compatible, my bank account silently cried.

3:The Wedding Where Half of the Attendees Received Sheet Cake and the Other Half Received…

Consider hosting a wedding with a VIP area. In fact, my “friends” did just that.

They created a guest system with two tiers that would make a nightclub bouncer blush.

Level 1? the select few. An open bar, fancy wristbands, and full banquet access. Living big!

Level 2? the masses without washing. After seeing the ceremony, we fiddled with the leftovers from the reception. Peasants, cash bar only!

Not to mention the dessert: grocery store sheet cake for the rest of us, exquisite fondant for the elites.

The highlight of the show? “Sponsor our honeymoon” donation box, since nothing screams “We value your presence” more than pleading for vacation money after treating half of your visitors like second-class citizens.

4:Cash-Only Wedding: Since Venmo is so convenient, who needs love?

Imagine a couple who became medieval tax collectors because they were so determined to have a church wedding straight out of a fairy tale. They wanted COLD, HARD CASH, not a registration. Yes!

It’s not like “slip a $20 in a card” money either. It was enough to make your accountant perspire.

The guest list began to shrink more quickly than a wool sweater in hot water, which was not surprising.

Here’s the real kicker, though! They couldn’t be happy with all that money. Their first anniversary was not even reached.

It turns out that tulle and empty pockets are not the foundation for a long-lasting marriage. Who could have known?

5:Please, no pictures! My mother-in-law’s attempt to restrict our wedding for the sake of family privacy

For our wedding, my MIL Daisy made some… intriguing demands.

Imagine this: “Don’t post any pictures on social media,” she says during my last dress fitting. My relatives shouldn’t see.”

What? With the promise of a church do-over later, we had already scaled back from a large party to a woodsy elopement. Is she now attempting to suppress our memories?

I almost required stitches because I bit my tongue so hard. “Daisy, darling, this is our day,” I finally said, summoning my best “bless your heart” voice. “Those photos are uploaded more quickly than you can say, ‘I object.'”

My fiancé supported me, and Daisy, for some reason, found her calm. You can bet your bottom dollar that those pictures appeared on Facebook before the cake was cut, and the wedding was flawless!

6:At my sister’s wedding, Bad Hair Day devolves into a soap opera slapfest

Let me introduce you to Linda, my half-sister and potential hair tyrant. She insisted that every bridesmaid wear the same hairstyle for her wedding.

It doesn’t matter if we have a huge assortment of hair lengths and varieties. Did I also mention the early-morning appointment at some fancy, distant salon?

Instead, Mom, bless her, got me a reservation at a cheap eatery nearby. The drama of the rehearsal dinner begins. Like two cats in a sack, Linda and Mom attacked each other. Before I know it, I’ve been kicked out of the bridal party before you can say “bad perm.”

But there’s still more!

In an attempt to eject Mom and me from supper, Linda’s mother chose to play bouncer. SLAP when Mom refused to back down! Yes, my mother was the target of Linda’s mother’s full-scale soap opera.

Naturally, Dad and Bro, as well as the majority of our side, bailed on the big day. All of this on top of some updos. What a terrible hair day!

7:Destination Wedding Disaster: When Hotel Bills Exceed Wedding Costs Get ready, everyone, because Roger and I are going to go on a crazy journey to Wedding Wonderland.

Our friends have a lot of requests, yet they can’t seem to agree on anything!

It was a tropical vacation, to start. They declared, “We don’t want to exclude anyone,” as they prepared a party that was as far away as a desert island. “Oops, military duty calls!” Don’t do that. We’re going interstate now, but don’t worry, it will still be quite expensive!

They insist that the same hotel is where we all sleep. Ten rooms, 100 visitors, and a nightly tariff that would make a rock star blush are a little problematic. To get out of this circus, Roger and I are on the verge of eloping. If things continue this way, we’ll have to survive on ramen for a year in order to pay for their “special day.”

I hope we don’t have to sell a kidney for their next brilliant concept!

8:Welcome, Visitors! Instead of toasting the bride and groom, please assist us in purchasing our ideal boat.

Allow me to present Jeremy, a cousin of my friend, and his blushing bride. These two lovers dreamed of taking a luxurious cruise across the oceans.

They then decided that their wedding was the ideal occasion to raise money for their nautical aspirations. These pirates of today needed real money to purchase a boat, so forget toasters and towels.

However, any old dinghy would not be sufficient. Oh no, a brand-new Mastercraft was what they had their sights set on. For nothing says “till death do us part” more than requesting that your guests spend a lot of money on a luxurious boat.

This time of year, the S.S. Entitlement is reportedly beautiful!

9:Goldilocks’ Wedding Entry Fee: $1,000 Because Love Isn’t Cheap!

You can only imagine how shocked I was to discover a price tag attached to a wedding invitation.

My friend, who we’ll call “Goldilocks,” had a very clear idea of what she wanted to happen on her special day. And by vision, I mean giving each guest at least $1,000 in cash.

She said that anything less “wouldn’t make a difference.” Yes, but things improve.

To ensure that our kind donations are not overlooked, we were told to mark both our presents and envelopes. God forbid she gives credit to the wrong person for funding her extravagant scheme!

I can’t determine whether her math prowess or her chutzpah is more amazing. I may send her a beautiful “thank you” letter for enlightening me on the meaning of “gold digger!”

10:Greetings and Admission Fees for the Wedding — Prepare to Pay for Each Cake Slice

This one takes the wedding cake, so hold on to your hats, people.

Imagine getting a save-the-date that suspiciously resembles an itemized bill. Yes, these imaginative couple chose to charge for entry to their “destination” wedding.

As if flying to Nowheresville wasn’t expensive enough, we now got to cover every expense and moment of their special day. But there’s still more!

It turns out that the mastermind behind this marriage money grab was the bride’s father. Unbelievably, the wedding went horribly wrong. Who could have predicted that? They are reportedly organizing a vow renewal. P.S. That decade, I’ll be too busy cleaning my hair.

Here are five stories about crazy wedding days that will make you cherish eloping, people. Do you have a tale of nuptial foolishness of your own? Leave a remark with it!
