Bride and groom give wedding guests ‘unreasonable’ list of rules to follow and people are not happy

The couple gave their guests an extensive list of dos and don'ts for their big day

A bride and groom have been branded as ‘tacky’ after giving their guests an ‘unreasonable’ list of rules to follow at their wedding.

Wedding planning can be one of the most stressful things you ever do - and we always get told not to worry about pleasing your guests.

After all, you can't please everyone.

The day is for you and your partner, but one bride and groom have taken this outlook to a whole different level.

Posting anonymously to Reddit, one person shared the couple’s list of dos and don’ts for their big day, captioned with: “If someone sent this to me, I would simply just not go.”

Social media users were left baffled after the list was that bad, they thought it might be a joke.

Some of the rules told guests that their opinion was ‘irrelevant’, and ordered that they couldn't sit down 'all night'.

The first rule bluntly urged guests to remember that this was the bride and groom's big day, 'not yours'.

We think they have made that pretty clear…

The list continued: “Do not get in the photographer's way.

“The attire is BLACK and/or GOLD not red, blue, green and definitely NO WHITE!

“Do not rearrange the seats, we have a seating chart for a reason.

“If you didn't put out any money for the wedding, keep your ‘should've, could've, would've’ to yourself. Your opinion is irrelevant.”

One rule which we can just about get on board with, is the couple banning 'big announcements or proposals' on their day.

However, they went on to note that the music was their choice, telling guests to 'simply go home' if they didn’t like what was being played.

One of the final rules was: “No outside liquor. If caught, you will be escorted out.”

This one was probably enforced by the venue, but ‘escorted’ out is a little far.

People in the comments were split on whether the list went too far, but many thought it was completely ‘unreasonable’.

One person said: “What kind of list is this? Too chaotic for me.”

Someone else wrote: “Doesn't sound like they're mature enough to get married lol.”

And third added: “Why are people pretending like this isn’t written as rudely as possible?

“For the most part it’s not the rules themselves that are the problem, but how they are written.”

Others suggested that the rules were simply the couple’s boundaries.

One commented: “They're not asking for anything out of order.

“They're just stating what should be obvious, but they probably have seen from their family and friends past behaviour, that it NEEDS to be addressed.

“Is it a little tacky? Yes, but the only people that will be bothered by any of it are the ones that would have been an issue.”

Another added: “Yes, the tone is a little aggressive, and this is definitely a ‘know your audience’ kind of list, but most of these rules aren't that big a deal.”

What do you think of the list?
