Weddings are meant to bring people together.
However, sometimes, tensions flare, things get heated, and the opposite happens.
Inviting, uninviting, reinviting, and then uninviting someone again sends the wrong message.
Redditor u/Firm_Tomatillo_6320 recently went viral after opening up to the AITA online community about adelicate wedding situation.
She shared how she canceled her BFFs bachelorette party right after she fired her as a bridesmaid.
First of all, yes, the happy couple do have the right to invite whomever they want.
Theyre also perfectlyallowed to uninvitesomeone if they see that the situation has changed, e.g.
if the guest is being disruptive or if they had to downscale the venue.
For one thing, they shouldnt flip-flop with their invites, as they did in the OPs case.
Itll cause a lot of confusion and lead to hurt feelings.
Direct, clear, andhonest communication(preferably in person, possibly by phone) is best.
Subtleties and cliches arent going to work here.
Many folks will have made plans in advance.
Its also disrespectful to uninvite someone due to ones own emotional immaturity.
We get it, wedding prep can be incredibly stressful.
And its important that the brides happy with the event.
The problem is the brides perception of herself.
Essentially, body neutrality claims that your value and self-worth are not linked to how you look.
This is different from body positivity which encourages unconditionally loving yourself, whatever your body looks like.
The former is about acceptance.
Most readers were appalled by the bride-to-bes behavior.
They stood in solidarity with the ex-bridesmaid
