Man Gets The Heat After Allowing Son To Bring Fast Food For Himself And Others During A Wedding Reception

by Jesse

Weddings are the single most intentional events ever. Couples take months to plan everything about their wedding, from the number of guests to be invited to their seating arrangements, meal options, and venue —And none of these things come cheap. 

In 2021, research showed that the average wedding cost was $28,000. Although this can be cheaper depending on the size of the event, weddings are still pretty expensive.

Some people go way higher than $28,000, and it's pretty standard. This is because they want their wedding to be perfect. After all, it's the day they have been waiting for all their lives. 

Some couples even go as far as providing many course meals, unique gifts, and making inquiries about food allergies to ensure their guests are well taken care of. 

With all the effort couples put into planning their wedding, it's common for them to expect their guests to be satisfied and for them to be hurt if their guests aren't.

We guess that's why this Redditor was confused about whether he was the AH or not after allowing his son to buy fast food and bring it to a wedding reception.

He shared that his cousin was getting married, and the reception had a buffet with quite a few options. However, his 22-year-old son, ‘Johnny,’ didn't like anything available, so he allowed him to leave to get fast food. 

Other family members found out and asked him to bring some food back for them, and he obliged them. 

Although the bride and groom and other immediate family members had no problem with OP’s son’s actions, the bride’s family and the venue were appalled. This led OP to ask the AITA question.

Many couples put a lot of effort into planning their wedding. So it can be infuriating when someone puts a dent in what should be a perfect day.

Judging from the story, OP doesn't seem to see anything wrong in what their son did. But we bet the bride's family will have a word with the young man after the event.

The Reddit community also agrees that such an act was definitely an a**hole move. And everyone seems shocked that OP, rather than correcting their son, enabled him.

Why not join the conversation—A**hole or Not The A**hole?
