A woman planning her wedding has faced criticism after requiring her family and friends to pay a minimum fee of $65 to attend the ceremony, with some calling her

“cheap and tacky.”

A guest attending the wedding of an unidentified bride shared their frustration on Reddit, questioning whether it was acceptable for the bride to expect guests to pay for their own expenses, reports the New York Post

The invited guest wrote,

“One of my closest friends is getting married and is charging her guests to attend the wedding.” 

“I always knew she was cheap, so in one way I’m not surprised,”

they continued. 

The user on Reddit revealed that they were sent an invite via mail, which mandated $65 if they were RSVPing to attend. 

The person continued to write,  

“It doesn’t even say what the fee is for but after googling it says it includes food, music, decorations, and venue…  So they literally want their guests to pay for decorations.”

According to the Redditor, guests attending the wedding will have to pay extra for meals at the reception and an additional $100 if they want to stay overnight. Including a gift, they estimate the total cost of the wedding for a guest to attend would be over $400. 

The frustrated invitee pointed out that the bride and groom have substantial wealth and assets.

Reddit users chimed in with their thoughts and opinions. 

One user penned,

“This is so beyond tacky and tasteless. I hope she gets roasted for it.”

While another user wrote,

“I would send my regrets and my congratulations and that’s it… The bride is out of her freaking mind.”
