A groom-to-be is facing major backlash after attempting to charge his wedding guests $450 per person to attend his big day. The man, who remains unnamed, took to social media to express his frustration, claiming that people are willing to spend $500 on concert tickets for artists like Beyoncé and Chris Brown but refuse to pay for his wedding.
In a viral post, he wrote, “Y’all paying $500 to see Beyoncé & Chris Brown, but can’t drop $450 to celebrate my wedding? Make it make sense!” His comments sparked a heated debate, with many criticizing him for treating his wedding like a paid event rather than a celebration with loved ones.
While some agreed that weddings can be expensive and understood his reasoning, others argued that guests should never be charged to attend. One person commented, “Your wedding is not a concert, bro.” Another added, “If you can’t afford the wedding, scale it down instead of charging people.”
As the controversy continues, it seems this groom may have to rethink his approach—or risk celebrating his big day with a very empty venue!
