A bride was furious when she saw guests at her wedding reception taking home leftovers in food containers. What makes the situation worse is that the bride didn’t even know the thieving guests well. The couple was the daughter and son-in-law of the bride’s father’s best friend, whom she only invited to the wedding so her father would not be bored and could socialize.
“My husband and I had a very small wedding ceremony and reception. Probably about twenty-five people were invited. Only close family and a handful of friends. I invited my dad’s BFF, so he’d have someone to socialize with other than my mom (since they literally spend twenty-four-seven with each other). Plus, his friend has always been good to me. Anyway, a few days before the wedding, my dad’s friend asked him if it was okay if his daughter and her husband came, and I didn’t have a problem with it.”
However, the bride should have expected it since these individuals were entering the wedding reception secretly despite not knowing anyone else. And when her father’s best buddy’s daughter showed up at the wedding, she was prepared with her food containers.
“So she shows up, without her husband, but with about ten Tupperware containers,” the bride wrote on Reddit. “To take food. We had a buffet-style wedding (I’m Polish in Western PA, and it’s kind of tradition in our area), and we had a cookie table (look it up – also (Polish) tradition, and amazing).”
The woman starts to fill her leftovers containers with food as she finishes up her meal.
“She loaded up seven Tupperware containers with food to take home, took about three containers of homemade cookies, a couple of bottles of beer, and most of the centerpieces. I didn’t notice any of this because I was too busy with the whole wedding – but my dad told me about it the next day. And when he opened up our ‘gift’ from her, she gave us $5. Not even kidding. A five-dollar bill.”
The bride added, “Before anyone asks, she’s not poor by any stretch of the imagination. She’s probably better off than I am, and I’m assuming it’s because she just freeloads from anyone and everyone she can! But seriously! Who the f**k does this?”
The bride was so enraged by the situation that she lashed out on Reddit. Many people condemned the woman’s actions, with many calling them “rude” and “tacky.”
One user wrote, “That is incredibly rude and tacky. I would be so upset if someone did that at my wedding.”
Another stated, “That is beyond tacky and rude. I would be pissed too. What a b****!”
“I would have been so upset if someone had done that at my wedding! That is just so rude and tacky!”
