Wedding Plans Turns Sour
The post detailed the initial excitement of being asked to be bridesmaids for the destination wedding of the bride, known as Jane, and her partner Brad. However, the bride's decision to opt for a small destination wedding in Colorado with only immediate family attendees left many friends not invited.

Suggestions poured in on how the friends should respond, with many advising to confront the bride and set boundaries about traditional wedding benefits. Some even suggested organizing a separate celebration for close friends post-wedding.
Final Thoughts** The situation has sparked a debate on social media about wedding etiquette and friendship expectations. It serves as a reminder of the importance of clear communication and mutual respect in relationships, especially during significant life events.
