Marriages are an excellent social event filled with music, dance and delicious food. They act as a way to establish new obligations between two people and their families. It brings together friends, parents and knowledge lost for a long time. Of course, none of this comes free. The place of food, food, guests, everything must be supported. In fact, marriages are only more and more expensive.

Seyi, a 22-year-old London advisor, must attend another extravagant marriage in Romania. She brought a friend like her plus one and they both had an explosion. Once the marriage was finished, it was time to go home Seyi. Few to know that she knew, an unpleasant surprise awaits at home.

A slow day

It was a slow morning on the desk. Seyi was on his desk sipping his fourth cup of coffee of the day. She had worked with this business for about a year and the remuneration was good, so she could not complain. But working as a counselor was not the most thrilling work, so she needed her coffee to stay awake, especially on a slow day like this.

The invitation

Seyi's fingers click on her unimportant laptop when a notification caught his attention. She received a new email in her inbox. By opening the e-mail, she discovered that it was an invitation to her colleague in Romania. "A destination wedding?" She thought, "It sounds good".

Perfect getaway

Seyi was excited. She desperately needed a work break and it was the perfect opportunity. In addition, she had to bring a plus and she knew she had to take her best friend to this event. Seyi noticed a link attached to the mail. He took it to a website that was created for marriage.

The website

On the website, there were insights of how marriage was going to be arranged and thereby, this marriage was going to be extravagant. Two days of the itinerary were mentioned, including a gardening party just before the day of the wedding, a fully treated part will follow after the ceremony with an open bar.

Hotel charges

The website also mentioned the hotel where the guests would stay. He showed the beautiful pictures of the hotel and rooms too. However, guests will have to support residence expenses at the hotel. The accommodation was quite expensive and so will be the flight tickets, but Seyi was still delighted.

Cash only

The happy couple had also mentioned on the website they will only accept cash gifts. Although some people can find this rude, Seyi understood where they came from. She knew how much marriages can be particularly married, in particular, was an extremely fantasy destination wedding.

One more

Seyi was allowed to bring one more the one who was exciting from this trip will be a very fun experience. She decided to ask her best friend to accompany her to the trip. His best friend knew no one at marriage but she was happy to accompany her. The two friends booked their flight tickets, packed their business and were ready to leave.

Buzz with enthusiasm

Once the girls checked and sat down on their flights, the excitement was heading their heads. They had never been in Romania and now they will attend a fun summer wedding and does not like a wedding? They impatiently waited for an incredible period filled with friends, good food and dance.

Familiarize the BFF

During the flight, Seyi told everything about the bride and groom with his best friend to familiarize her. She knew no one at marriage and this little briefing could help him in case she felt out of place once they reached the place. Of course, she had seyi so she was not alone, but it would not do well to get to know the happy couple.

Traveling to Transylvania

The flight was landed in Cluj, a city in the Transylvania region. It was one of the most beautiful cities that Seyi has ever seen. The 15th century buildings blend in the trees that affect the impeccable blue sky. The girls made a mental note to explore more of the city if they have time after the wedding. But for the moment, they had somewhere to be. They caught their bags bags and reserve a taxi for the hotel.

Hotel

The hotel was located in a picturesque village outside the city. It also had a beautiful church for the ceremony. They were welcomed with a charming personalized gift bag. The girls were delighted with the atmosphere of this place. Seyi was so happy that she had to be part of the good day of her friend. After checking in their rooms, the girls decided to meet the bride.

Meet the bride

As expected, the bride was surrounded by a group of people, half of whom did not even recognize. They decided to go ahead and congratulate her on his special day. To the surprise of Seyi, the bride did not seem to see her. She was too tense and busy spending a few minutes with her.

Pre-marriage nerves

Seyi assumed his nerves before the wedding of the bride, that's why she acts strange. She did not take her to her heart and went to meet her other friends and colleagues. She did not meet the bride that night. It was clear that the bride had to relax before marriage and seyi completely understood that.

Explore the village

After the little meeting and greets, the girls decided to go out and explore the beautiful village that their hotel was located. The sun shone shiny in the sky, the summer was on its peak and they loved it. The girls silently walked on the streets of the village who attract a lot of attention to the inhabitants, because they were the only foreigners of the village. But they appreciated all this, weather, attention and landscape.

No ATM

The only concern so far on this trip was that there was no ATM nowhere. They lacked money and they had to remove money. They had to save money to return to the airport too. It began to seem to have to send their wedding gift after returning home.

Garden-Party

The night before the ceremony, there was a superb garden party organized by the couple. The rally buzzed from chattering and excited laughter. The children ran between the tables, their parents are too busy catching all the gossip. Food, drinks, aroma, everything was exquisite. This trip has developed to be a good decision for both.

The caller one night

After a long night to drink and dance, Seyi and her friend reached their hotel room in a completely exhausted condition. They did not know how they will wake up tomorrow and get ready for the wedding but for now, they were happy to call him one night and sleep.

Wedding day

The next morning, the girls woke up much better than they supposed. The excitement for marriage was much more substantial than the influence of a hangover. Seyi went to check the bride but she could not catch her before the ceremony. A little disappointed, she returned to the room to prepare for the event.

The place

It was the ideal time for the wedding, warm but not too hot, the sun stung occasionally behind the clouds. As expected, the church was beautiful. It has been decorated with flowers, candles and string lights. A sweet melody of classical music was in the air, while everyone waited for the ceremony begins.

Ceremony

The music of the ceremony began as everyone looked up on the bride walking down the driveway. She looked like an angel. His golden hair had returned to a bun with pearls around him. His Romanesque brushed the ground as she went to her husband. It was a nice ceremony and coincidentally, Seyi grabbed the bouquet!

A dancing parties

After the ceremony, everyone hit the dance floor. Seyi and his friends left their hair and had an incredible time. They even taught dance moves to the guests. She could not remember the last time she laughed. She is always so caught up at work, she realized that she needs to relax and go on vacation more often.

Change in the air

At the end of the night, Seyi noticed the family of the bride aside distributing envelopes to the guests. Seyi recalled the instructions on the website asking guests to donate money to the couple. But it seemed a kind of pushy for her. By pushing the envelope in the hands of their guests to bring cash, seemed rude on the part of the host.

More species

Seyi and his friend exchanged uncomfortable glances, they thought both the same. They could not find an ATM and they do not now have enough money for the gift, that is why they envisagaient to send the gift after the wedding. But now, with this event change, they will both give money now.

Shuffling for bills

As one of the people handing out envelopes reached Seyi and his girlfriend, the girls were left to shiver in their purses for bills they could place. They could not collect a lot because they had to save money to reach the airport, but apart from that, they put everything else in the envelope.

Another gift bag

Seyi felt awkward since she planned to send a gift once she had reached the house but she could not turn them off with an empty envelope. The total money came to about 25 euros. The duo received another gift bag, which seemed to be a strange transaction, but they did not think too much about it.

Say goodbye

After a bizarre yet fun night, it was time to leave. They had a 4:00 flight to London that night. The girls had only a few hours before their flight, so they decided to make a quick nap, which swept them sleeping through their alarm and finally touch to the airport enough time to catch their flight.

Back to work

Unfortunately, Seyi had to return to work the same day as their flight landed in London. She had managed to get some sleep on the flight but the truth is told, she was exhausted. But for her, the holidays were worth the trouble and she made incredible memories with his best friend. She decided to get through the day. As usual, it started with a cup of coffee, the first of many to follow.

The surprise

Seyi sat at his desk, like any other person who returns to work after a few days, she first checked her email. She was busy through her inbox when she heard from her phone. To his surprise, it was a text of his newly married friend. Seyi assumed that this could be a text asking if she reached home okay.

Thank you note

Seyi had another thought that this could be a "thank you for coming" kind of thing. However, it was too early to thank you notes. The wedding was last night and, traditionally, it should prepare for her honeymoon right now instead of sending thank-you text. Usually, the newlyweds are too busy for that kind of thing and do not begin to take care of such formalities before following.

The message

Seyi took a long sip of his coffee and started reading the text, "Hi Seyi, how are you? Did you enjoy the wedding and the time spent in Cluj? Your friend has he enjoyed as ? "Seyi thought to herself that it was nice of her to everyone has had a good time at the wedding.

pitiful contribution

Seyi almost choked her coffee by what was written in the next line. She wrote: "You seemed to enjoy it a lot but this was not reflected in the contribution you have made to our wedding cost." The bride continued to tell him that $ 20 and $ 5 Seyi her friend does not cover the cost of food, drinks and gift bags.

The fun costs money

Seyi could not believe his eyes. His "friend" tapping him to give him less money that she was waiting for her by sending her a complete text listing the details of all the pleasure she had and how much it costs. And instead of enjoying his wedding night, she had passed him from the money of each envelope? It seemed to be the most unfortunate way to spend your first night as a married couple.

Insignificant gift

The message continued to talk about the contribution made by other guests and the insignificant contribution of SEYI compared to others. Most guests gave about 100 euros and it expected the minimum contribution to anyone to 75 euros, as it was the cost by the head according to their wedding plan.

Aggressive passive

"If it was not clear from the beginning, my apologies so as not to explain it better." Seyi continued to read, completely stupefy. The message ended with its bank details and the request of 125 euros was made to cover the cost of Seyi and its friend. She had carefully deduced the 25 euros already received.

Transfer the message

The first thing in Seyi made after finishing reading the text had to send it to his best friend who accompanied him during the trip. It was only a few minutes later when Seyi received a call from her. His travel partner was also insulted by the message. Especially because both of them had already planned to send a gift to the couple once they have reached the house.

Miscatel

They could not believe they spent all this money attending this marriage only to be treated as they jumped on a restaurant check. Seyi was so much understanding of the whole situation already because she knows that marriages are expensive. But then they distribute envelopes to people at marriage and now this text? How could they humiliate their guests like that?

Pre-planned message

Seyi's friend noticed that the text was quite long and well written, which was a little suspicious since they read it the morning after the night of wedding, less than 12 hours later. This could only mean that this message has been written well in advance to send all these people whose "contribution" to marriage did not seem enough to the bride.

The gift bag

The girls noticed one last thing; Gift bags. The gift bags they received at the time of giving these cash envelopes were marked. And that's how she could say who gave what envelope and, hence, she knew exactly how much each of her guests contributed.

No chance

Seyi recalled how she was considering sending a good gift to the couple once she reached the house, well there, it plans the drain! There is no way she sends something to this person ingrats and she does not transfer 125 euros to her bank account.

High people

Girls are sorry for the new couple. They are so obsessed with money they did not take full advantage of their special day. Their mind was busy with these thoughts throughout the event, which would explain why the bride was so tense. But if the wedding was tight on the pocket, they should have kept everything weak.

Tweeter experience

Seyi decided to teach this person a lesson and went on his Twitter to share this story with everyone. The answer she had was crazy. People have found the request of the bride to be impolite and clumsy. "This rudeness is it worth 125 euros?" A user responded. People also emphasized how destination marriages are not easy on guests, they have to pay enough to just attend.

Bad hosts

People mentioned how a person should not organize a sumptuous event if they can not afford it. They should not put pressure on their guests to fill their pockets with money. However, there were some people who were on the bride side. They wrote: "Obviously, she asking for money is lame / unprecedented but 5 euros for a wedding gift is insulting."

Contribution

Another person tweeted that Seyi should send to his friend a list of expenses she endured to attend marriage and call her "contribution" to marriage. But with regard to people of mind, no amount in this world will never be able to satisfy them ever.

Different socket

The best friend of Seyi, who has known everything with her, has a different grip of this situation. She pleasant on this subject saying that because they spent an important amount to attend marriage, they now have actions in marriage and the couple should give them a strong return on this investment.

Forgiveness is divine

A Twitter user asked Seyi if she forgave her friend for that, and she answered with: "Sure to say that I am no longer friend with the debt manifold. And I still want my 25 € back. "The experience of being treated as a customer instead of a guest or even a spoiled friend the relationship she shared with the bride.

Bitter tears

Another user shared the story of her sister, who was going to be the bridesmaid at the wedding of her good friend. She had to spend most of her savings to buy adequate outfit for the big day. After the wedding, his friend told him how disappointed she was because she had not received a wedding gift from her. The bridesmaid burst into tears! Safe to say that it has never spoken to the jammer again.

Bribila

Most of us had our share of experiences with one or more Bracezillas. Their stories are infinite, brides who wanted his bridesmaids to cover their tattoos to the one who wish them to be of the same height. Weddings bring out the worst. And the tragedy is that they only succeed in ruining their special day.

Learning Learning

According to Seyi, the debt recovery couple is always together and had his first child earlier this year. She does not know if they managed to collect all the money for their marriage, neither she cares. Weddings are stressful as is, so that people should relax and enjoy instead of complicating further things by offering unnecessary requests from their guests.
