I was fuming when I found out why my family hadn’t RSVP-ed to my wedding – now they’re uninvited for being so petty
A WOMAN has threatened to “uninvite” two family members from her wedding after they complained about the menu choices.
Stef explained that her sister had contacted their relatives to ask why they hadn’t received an RSVP back from them for the nuptials.
And when she did so, she found out the bizarre reason they’d delayed their response to the invite – despite the fact they insisted they were coming.
“I know they’ll be there, but I need to know their food options,” she said in a TikTok video.
“And the reason they gave for not RSVPing was there’s no fish on the menu!”
She said that she and her husband-to-be had given their guests a meat choice or a vegetarian choice for both the starter and the main course.
“If you don’t like the meat, then you can have a really lovely Parmigiana aubergine gnocchi,” she added.
“It’s amazing!”
Not only that, but the two family members actually eat meat.
“So my sister was like, ‘Right, okay, so you’re not gonna come to the wedding because there’s no fish on the menu?'” Stef continued.
“And they were like, ‘No, no, no, of course we’re gonna come, we just don’t really know what to say’.”
And when her sister asked the relatives whether or not they could eat either the vegetarian or meat option, they said they could, but “just really wanted fish”.
“Are you f**king joking?” Stef raged.
“I’m sorry, but my wedding is not a restaurant.
“You don’t get a full menu, you don’t get to choose from 10 different options.”
In addition, it would cost Stef an extra £10 per person to provide a meat, vegetarian AND fish option, as she noted: “It’s a 160 person wedding.
“I don’t f**king think so.
“My wedding is a two day event. You’re getting two lots of breakfast from me.

“You’re getting a rehearsal dinner. You’re getting your wedding breakfast.
“You’re getting a pizza from the night of the wedding. I think you’re doing all right.
“It’s a free bar. Sit back and enjoy yourself.”
When the pair admitted the reason they hadn’t wanted to RSVP was because of the menu, Stef’s sister told them: “If you don’t like the food choices, then go f**k yourself”.
“Couldn’t agree more,” she added.
Sharing the tale on TikTok, Stef wrote: “Please tell me I’m not the only other person experiencing this level of crazy around their wedding?!”
People quickly obliged by sharing their own shocking stories in the comments section.
“Literally lost family members who threatened to not attend so I told them not to,” one said.
“Then a ‘friend’ said she’s not coming to my hen now because she had a disagreement over money with my maid of honour!”
“What is up with people and fish?!” another exclaimed.
“I was told I HAD to give a fish option. Excuse me. I hate fish so I give a fish option that means I the bride don’t have a choice on the day?”
“People are unhinged!” a third sighed
“We got married in Feb and some of the comments we got! The worst were from immediate family!!
“One moaned about the FREE wine choices on the table… don’t drink it!!”
