Every bride dreams of a flawless wedding day. While many aspects of a wedding, such as the dress, venue, and catering, can be meticulously planned, it’s impossible to guarantee that everything will go off without a hitch. One bride thought she had the perfect plan to ensure a seamless wedding day, but soon realized that not everyone shared her vision.The bride-to-be decided to seek advice on Reddit, posting in the popular subreddit “Am I The Asshole” (AITAH).

She wanted to know if she was being unreasonable in her expectations for her wedding guests. The post quickly garnered attention, sparking a heated debate. The bride explained that she and her fiancé had sent a list of rules to their wedding guests, only to receive a wave of cancellations in response.

Before diving into the details, she made it clear that these rules were not just her ideas; her fiancé had contributed equally and fully supported them. One of the key rules the couple enforced was having an “unplugged ceremony.” Guests were not allowed to have their phones with them during the ceremony or the dinner that followed, except in the case of a significant emergency.

While most guests understood the no-phone policy during the ceremony, many found the restriction during dinner to be excessive. Some parents, who planned to leave their children at home, expressed concern about needing to check on them. However, the bride was firm, stating that if she made an exception for one person, she would have to do so for everyone. She insisted, “Checking with your kids is not an emergency. If something serious happens you’ll know.”Another rule revolved around a strict color scheme and dress code.
