Anyone Remember (EDITED)... Read for TOS reasoning

Anyone recall that post a little while back?  I don't recall what the exact question was or on what board, but the bride and groom had rented a children's camp and lodge to host their wedding.

I wonder if this might be one of their guests: http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/bride-asking-too-much-of-guests-should-someone-tell-her#axzz2S97uNXju

    I remember that thread.  This has got to be one of the guests.  It's the exact same scenario but from the other point of view.

    I thought so!  I thought there was something in the thread here about the cost of the lodging and food, etc.

    If I could find the TK post, I'd post it in that thread on Bee, lol.

    I'm looking for it now. . .

    ETA: I'm trying to remember if I posted inthat thread or if any of you did. . . would be easier to find it that way, I think.

    My only thought is that the poster from here is in Kansas City and the WB poster is in New Jersey.  She could be travelling.  I'm just hoping there aren't two brides out there like this.

    Edit: kmbyant and I have the same mind apparently.

    Wow, I have no words.  That has to be the most self absorbed, selfish thing I have ever heard from a bride.  I wonder what the parents and FI think of the plan.  I hope the OP doesn't attend.

    But the knot girl isn't getting married for over a year.  Would her guests really be planning out accomodations already?

    I remember that post too. She was asking about how to go about having her guests "pay" for their cabins. I know someone suggested having them pay the camp owner directly just as they would if staying in a hotel, but that apparently wasn't an option.

    You know what's really sad- that there are 2 people in this world that came up with the same horrible idea.

    Everyone's hatin' on me.... Cry I'm not even mad because I am the only in who hates the idea of making all of our guests give us ALL the $$$, my mom, FI, MOH, friends, etc. all think it is just fine and dandy...I think I am having chest pains thinking about it again.

    Although, looking at how much that other bride is making her guests pay, I am imagining how rich I could be....

    I don't think it is super tacky to have it at a children's camp - a venue is a venue.  What is tacky is being pretending to be kind enough to find accomodations for your guests, but when the accommodations are nowhere near suitable and are way too expensive, freaking out and phoning guests to yell at them.  This guest that is posting on wedding bee should be running for the hills!

    Hey guys -- chiming in here. So, I know we have all gone back and forth about FFF and thread links--- this is the same type of idea.

    Posting a specific thread calling out a specific user, in a negative light, is against TOS. I am not going to ban anyone right now, I just want to clarify why this is wrong so moving forward, it is clearer.

    The best way to think about these types of things: If this was a thread I started, would I be offended, etc?

     I am going to edit this post rather than taking it down.

    Thanks,
    Jackie

    Wow, really, KJ?

    Anyway, I'm not familiar with the original post on here that everyone is remembering, but I just read the WB thread and holy hell, I'd be declining that invitation in a heartbeat.  No way would I be ok with "roughing it", let alone the price, and the fact that I'd be sharing this stupid cabin with a bunch of other wedding guests. 
    An invitation like that would make me rethink my friendship wth that person.

    @knotjackie so we can't link to any threads on any boards? I had assumed that was just applying to TK posts

    @KnotJackie. . . I did not call out the user, all I did was post a link to her thread.  If you read your post where you warn me, you have me quoted, and all I said was "Wait, I think I found it" referring to her thread.

    Again, when I posted the link to the Wedding Bee thread and linked the TK thread I specifically did not post any opinions or commentary on either thread, other than "Hey, do you remember this TK thread?  Could this be one of the guests."

    I believe I was well within the TOS with my posts. . . I didn't even swear!

    ok so other sites ok to link is how I understand it. I missed that it was from TK.

    So I guess they prefer us to PM links in the case of your post
