A wedding in Uttar Pradesh took an unexpected turn when the groom canceled the ceremony after the bride’s family refused to pay the bill for feeding 600 guests. The incident, which occurred in a small village near Moradabad, has left both families shocked and sparked a flurry of reactions online.
The groom's family reportedly demanded that the bride’s side pay for the extravagant feast for 600 guests, despite prior agreements about sharing the wedding expenses. When the bride’s family declined, citing financial constraints, tensions escalated, leading to the groom abruptly calling off the wedding.
The bride’s family was caught off guard by the groom’s last-minute demand. A member of the bride’s family shared, “We had agreed on a modest guest list, but on the wedding day, the groom’s family suddenly insisted we pay for an excessive number of guests. It was impossible for us to meet their demands.”
The situation turned chaotic as arguments broke out between the two families at the wedding venue. Guests were left bewildered as the groom walked out, leaving the bride and her family humiliated.
The incident has drawn widespread attention online, with many expressing outrage at the groom’s behavior. Social media users have labeled his actions as selfish and inconsiderate, with some suggesting that the bride “dodged a bullet.”
“This bride deserves better. Imagine spending your life with someone who prioritizes a feast over a relationship,” one user commented. Another added, “This is why we need to rethink the pressure and expectations around Indian weddings.”
