Getting to see two people you care about tie the knot can be a wonderful experience, but that doesn’t mean we don’t have complaints or criticisms about the event. A bride-to-be is getting people to open up about them after asking for honest opinions about weddings.
“Currently planning a wedding and must know everyone’s least favorite things about attending a wedding or most judgmental take. This is market research,’” Lana Wilman posted on TikTok. People didn’t hold back, as thousands of comments have come in so far, including:
- “The cheesy bridesmaids/groomsmen entrances into the party. Pls do not do those.”
- "I HATE when couples don't send thank you cards. I know it's petty, but if I take an evening off, buy a dress, travel to your wedding, and spend a hundred bucks on a gift, a card would be nice.”
- "If you want to prescribe / expect things from your bridesmaids (new dress, hair, makeup, Bach trip) you should be fronting the cost OR not expecting gifts.”
- "I won't contribute to your honeymoon. I'm a single girl already going to your wedding. I'm not paying for your vacation."
- "If I don't know anyone then please make sure I have a plus one.”
- "Not enough alcohol is bad, not enough food is worse. Once people get hungry, it's game over—they'll either be cold and miserable, or absolutely off their faces.”
- "Honestly skip the wedding favors, most of them end up being tossed. Unless it's something edible or useful!"
- "Say what color the bridesmaids are so guests know to avoid the color.”
- “Please don’t do garter tosses!! Soooooo weird and uncomfy for an audience to be watching”
- “Do not book your wedding on a holiday weekend”
- “As long as there's food, dancing, open bar, & I'm allowed to use my phone I'm happy!!”
- “Sitting next to strangers - ‘because they want us to get to know each other.’ NO! Please let me sit with my fiancé and the people I know!!! I don’t need to know what Chris does for a living.”
- “Don’t ever put the speeches before the food.”
