It is one night in a lifetime for the spouses, and they have the right to do anything in providing food or drinks or if they do not wish. In my mind, snacks, drinks and cold water should be served for guests.

In my opinion it is disrespectful behavior for your guests. First of all you should inform guest that you are not going to serve food at the wedding. Because people have a particular expectations and depending on them, prepare a particular amount money for a present. The best decision in this situation would be not to invite guests and keep it just for yourself.

Okay, so on a side: they (as a couple) had the wedding of their dream! And they enjoyed it and every detail in it..

But on the other side: I think they had to consider that Not all if the guests are fans for Disney like them, so they could not be interested in having Mickie and Minnie in the wedding instead of having food 🍱

But answering on the question in the end of the text: No, she’s not an asshole, she and her husband did what they felt like doing and there was no harm done by having the costumes. And it’s also a reminder for other people that food is Not a basic component of weddings. 💍

Marriage is a choice of a couple. How they choose is up to them. To serve meals or not to serve is their choice.

I mean , it’s their dream wedding, As family and friends, they should have supported them , and it’s a such incredible experience for all the people, If the guests attack the couple just because they wanna do something that they really want at their own wedding, then these guests are asshole, wedding happens only once for many people, No concessions.

Yes.

It is true that the wedding is mainly "for you both", but common sense is also important, if you are having many guests, you want to please them just how you would want if they were visiting your house. If you cannot afford both ways, make it more intimate, with only very few people invited.

My fiancée and I just got married two months ago and we had our dream wedding. Everything was perfect, and I mean everything. My parents and his parents helped us pay for a great chunk of the wedding so we would be debt free and we are so eternally grateful for that.

The issue arose about a month and a half ago when my aunt started posting on facebook about how disappointed she was with the whole ordeal and a few guests sided with her.

Background-my fiancée and I are huge Disney fans, and we travel to Disney World as much as we can throughout the year. Disney is such an important part not only to us, but also our marriage.

The issue was with our decision to not offer catering services/bar services (no food or drinks provided) at our wedding due to putting the money towards having a wedding Minnie and Mickey make appearances at our special day. The cost to have both Minnie and Mickey for a good chunk of time (30 minutes) was almost exactly what our parents gave us for our catering budget, so we scheduled an appearance during our first dance and our wedding photos instead of serving food (though there were PLENTY of facilities at the venue where people could eat…).

My parents were still very supportive of us, but everyone is else is being passive aggressive about it on Facebook.

AITA?
