Hi everyone!! Our editors are working on something fun and want to hear all about the moments you hate as a wedding guest!
According to our Instagram followers, some of the biggest complaints from wedding guests include long speeches, group dances, long bar lines, confusing schedules, slow food service, and having to witness the garter toss.😆
What are some wedding moments that you hate as a guest? Any "wedding pet peeves" that drive you crazy?
Thanks for sharing - we love including real insights directly from our couples! 💕
Re: Wedding moments that guests secretly hate!
Not a big fan of the bouquet toss even if it isn't as bad as the garter toss.
Also, on that note - treat your guests the same as much as possible. It's harder if your reception is in a place with tiered seating (like upstairs and downstairs) or multiple rooms but please do your best to treat them all the same and definitely have the same food for everyone!
Inviting some guests only to parts or pieces instead of the whole event, some guests getting a different meal/dessert option (that's not something like a plated meal choice situation)... I realize when there were severe capacity restrictions in place during 2020-2022 this couldn't be avoided, barring that situation outside of couple/venue's control, it's simply bad planning if a site or venue is chosen that can't accommodate the total number of guests invited. Or, if some guests are given a plated higher end meal/dessert than the rest of the guests... While the couple cuts into a filled delicious cake that is then served to some guests and the rest of the guests are served an icing lacking piece of flat pan sheet cake, or big box cupcakes...
I don't care if you cut into a pretty cake and I get sheet cake IF the flavors are the same and the sheet cake is just a cost effective way to plate the same flavor combo. Don't cut into a chocolate ganache passion fruit mousse and serve me yellow cake with white icing.
