Have you ever daydreamed about a grand wedding, without the hefty price tag? Well, don't we all? It turns out some people actually have the audacity to ask their guests to foot the bill for their big day. And not just the usual gifts, but the whole shebang: venue, food, drinks, cake, flowers, entertainment, etc. How do they do it? By sending out invitations that look like invoices, demanding a minimum amount of money per person, AFTER the guest RSVP's ‘yes’. Sounds crazy, right? But it's true.…

Sisterly loyalties only go so far, and when one woman's sister, the bride, thought she'd play god with her own sibling's relationship, things backfired. Frankly, weddings bring out the cringe in all of us. Whether you're a sorry sap that cries during the vows (guilty as charged), the distant aunt who reminds the bride that they used to change their diapers, or you're the guest that drinks too much at the open bar, there's some social mixing that brings out the worst in everyone.

There are some wedding ceremonies you'll never forget for all the wrong reasons. As fall wedding season commences, let's take a trip down memory lane and recall those ceremonies that completely fell apart. Hopefully, the ceremonies that come to mind do not include your own. Personally speaking, I will have been a part of six wedding parties before the end of the year. That's right. Six. If I don't get some kind of a medal at the end of this, I will likely be the cause of one of these dramatic c…

These salon workers have a long wait list, so they can afford to pick and choose which customers they'll serve. I wish more businesses were run this way. As u/MissAcedia shared, she works at a day spa that is very busy. Due to their long wait list of customers wanting a nice hair cut or day at the spa, their days are packed full. So when customers act up or get upset about scheduling issues, it's no problem for the OP to take them out of her calendar. After all, if you provide a great service,…

Some people have dreamed about their wedding day since they were a little kid. Childhood dreams of Cinderella dresses, clinking champagne flutes, and a black-tie affair can sail through a kid's mind without a second thought, but in the deep south, an outdoor, summertime, black-tie event is a little more complicated to plan than an enchanting Disney-style ball. Guests could lose more than a glass slipper in those hot n' sweaty conditions...

This woman's 40th birthday has been overtaken by her soon-to-be sister in law.

No one can agree if this father is doing the right thing with his vast fortune.

These wedding photographers have some pretty good hunches about which couples will last a lifetime, and which will be divorced by next week. If you do that job for long enough, you learn the telltale signs of a relationship that's ripping at the seams. For lots of people, weddings are framed as one of the most important days of your life. It's the day that you formally agree to spend all your days with someone you love more than anyone else. The best part is that your family and friends are the…

From cake mishaps to a mother in law demanding two first dances, these people have had handled some odd requests and advice. While planning a wedding with the person you love, it's so romantic to get swept up in planning your dream day.

Family members can be least grateful band of blood relatives out there. For some, they feel as if their genetic relations entitle them to special treatment, which sometimes it does, but when cousins, uncles, siblings, and grannies start taking advantage of their family members's niceties, blood-relations quickly turn bitter. In this case, a family run business was being extraordinarily generous to their kin...

It's frustrating when someone can't keep a secret, especially when you've literally just finished telling them that secret, and the words are barely out of your mouth before they're sharing it with everyone. Of course, you learn to never disclose your secrets to that person after being burned once by their blabbermouth, but it's a little more complicated when that person is your spouse. It's also never easy living with a family who disapproves of your spouse due to their own haughty bias and pr…

Ladies… leave the fellas at home—really. And this statement applies to anyone prone to bringing their partners to traditionally spouseless events. It doesn't matter if you're attached at the hip for every waking moment of your life; otherwise, when it comes to something like a bachelor or bachelorette party, your spouse should not be involved. Leave the ol' boy at home and go have a night out on the town with the girls. This really shouldn't be a conversation in the first place, but—if it comes…

Ahh, family. Can't live with ‘em… and can’t live with 'em. While being one of the greatest and most fulfilling parts of life, family can also be one of the most toxic and infuriating. For some reason, being around family brings out the worst in us as well. As soon as we're back around our parents, we cease to be the functioning and capable adults we are and instead become our teenage selves, reacting with exasperated vitriol to any attempts our parents make to guide us. Our parents simultaneous…

Even though they just got engaged, this man is already rethinking his upcoming marriage. U/fullishfool decided to share this story to r/AmItheA**hole to get the internet's opinion on his fiancée's bizarre behavior . As you plan your wedding, there are so many decisions to make. One of the first is who you're going to invite. Small weddings may just include family and friends, while other couples love to go all out and invite extended family and coworkers. This OP wanted to invite his coworkers,…

There are certain people in life who enjoy inserting themselves into situations where they are clearly not wanted. This coworker was invited to the Redditor and his wife's wedding as a courtesy, but she decided that it was important to her to assist in the planning despite not taking into account the tastes of the bride and groom. She honestly sounds like an absolute nightmare to deal with. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/EntitledPeople subreddit by u/Nachtjaeger68 , and let's just say tha…

You give your boss ample time to find someone to cover your shift when you need time off , but chances are they'll still forget and bug you to do the shift anyway. This person, u/Nannyneedabreak, definitely gets that. In their post to r/AmItheA**hole, this nanny wanted to know if she was wrong for the way her boss was treating her. As she noted, she wanted to go to her sister's wedding, and like a good employee, she gave her boss a ton of notice — seven months notice, in fact! That's plenty gen…
