Every bride and groom wants a perfect wedding. It ideally only happens once in a lifetime, and wanting the event to turn out exactly how they envisioned it is understandable. 

However, some would step on other people’s toes just to let things fall into place, which is unacceptable. Thankfully, we have the internet to expose such entitled behavior

Scroll through to find screenshots showing ridiculous requirements, self-serving actions that put other guests in potential danger, and monetary gift requests to fund a honeymoon. Hopefully, you have never experienced any of these.

So I have a feeling that you soon won’t have a best friend.

Setting unrealistic expectations could be a sign of pre-wedding stress. It’s likely a result of the hyperfocus on making things “perfect” and running according to plan. According to psychologist Dr. Paulette Kouffman Sherman, managing expectations could relieve stress. 

In an interview with Brides, Dr. Sherman suggests aiming for excellence rather than perfection to help manage expectations.

Just When You Think The Bridezilla Requests Can't Get Any More Ridiculous

I'm a maid of honor in my friends wedding. She goes by her middle name which is Rachel... My first name is Rachel. I am honestly unsure how to answer. Like ma'am I'm not changing my name for your wedding.

You may read screenshots of people posting their Venmo accounts as a request for a cash gift. A 2023 registry study by The Knot revealed that 74% of wedding registry creators prefer to receive money from guests instead of traditional utensils and other home starters.

Some couples use the cash to fund their honeymoons or shoulder expenses for their first homes.

According to events director Bryce Carson, this trend has occurred over the past decade. But as he told Fortune in an interview, it isn’t always a cash grab.

“Couples are getting married a little bit older in life. They’re already combining their homes,” he explained. “They do not need two sets of everything.”

For many people, living in the internet age means wanting to look good for the ‘gram. Because of this, Carson says people are now heavily focused on turning their weddings into fashion events. 

As he points out, some guests may feel hassled by outfit requirements, adding to the already hefty cost of attending a wedding. Therefore, brides and grooms should expect some attendees to “go rogue” and ignore the guidelines.

Reality TV and social media influencers have created a society of narcissists who think the world revolves around them. A culture that worships nobodies, in turn making nobodies feel entitled to the same adulation. It's grotesque.

if you're so worried about "wasting money" on parts of a wedding in case you get divorce, to the point of demanding a refund if that happens, I'd wager the couple really shouldn't be getting married at all.

Some years ago, it was *my* day; now, it's *my* year. Soon, this flock of imbeciles will demand *my* decade. The biggest problem, in my opinion, is this trend is growing because people are paying too much attention to their invented dramas. If we just told them to f-off the moment they start with their unhinged demands, they would stop. No, I couldn't care less about your wedding, your dress or what colour you sister in law's dress is. Nobody cares. Really. We couldn't care less.

Presumably you know about the tattoos when you asked her to be in the wedding so you either accept her as she is or ask her to no longer be a part of your wedding party, and when she asks why you can tell her you value aesthetics over her. That'll make her feel real good
