'If someone sent this to me, I would simply not go': Internet weighs in on couple's 15 strict rules for their wedding
This couple wanted to send out 15 rules for their wedding. It's not a bad idea in theory, but the tone of the list, and some of the actual rules themselves, got people on the r/weddingshaming subreddit talking.
There are a lot of good rules for your wedding, and most don't need to be spelled out for guests. For example, there's one rule which warns guests not to bring outside drinks… who does that? Rule #2 instructs guests not to "get in the photographer's way." Who hurt this couple enough that they felt the need to include such a demand? I don't think most guests are blocking the photographer just for fun.
In another confusing rule, the couple notes that they want there to be twerking, since it's a "99s and 2000s" themed wedding. That's confusing though, because I thought that was a more modern dance… and I wonder if they wanted people not to twerk for that reason. It's possible that was a typo, too! If so, they're going to have a lot of twerking at their wedding, whether they wanted that or not.
Check out the rules below to see which ones you agree with, and which seem superfluous. Then, read about the woman engineer who got back at her coffee-drinking coworkers.

1. This is [redacted] and [redacted] big day, not yours.
2. Do not get in the photographer's way.
3. The attire is BLACK and/or GOLD not red, blue, green and definitely NO WHITE!
4. Do not rearrange seats, we have a seating chart for a reason.

5. If you didn't put out any money for the wedding, keep your should've, could've, would've to yourself. Your opinion is irrelavent [sic].
6. Pace yourself when drinking.
7. No big annoucements [sic] or proposals.
8. If you can't handle or dislike the music being played, simply go home. This is a celebration, not a funeral.
