The bride even compared the $100 gift to a birthday invitation that requested $225 per person, insinuating that the guest had undervalued their friendship.

She clarified that as a single person who doesn't drink, she has always given $100 as a wedding gift to her friends, in addition to shower gifts.

This is not the first time a bride's behavior sparked debate on social media.

A bride's decision to ask her guests to pay a staggering $1,200 participation fee for her wedding has sparked intense controversy.

The unusual request for payment led to the cancellation of the wedding when most guests refused to comply.

The bride and groom expected their guests to contribute a substantial amount of money to cover the expenses of their lavish wedding.

However, this request was met with resistance, as only eight guests RSVP'd and made the payment, leaving the couple disappointed and enraged by the lack of support.

Asking guests to pay such a hefty sum to attend a wedding is seen by many as unreasonable and out of touch with reality.

In today's world, where the cost of living is rising, most people simply do not have $1,200 lying around to spend on someone else's special day.

The bride, named Susan, defended her decision, stating that they had made sacrifices to achieve their dream wedding and needed proper funding to make it happen.

She mentioned that some close friends and family had generously contributed large sums, further justifying her expectation for others to follow suit. However, her demand for cash gifts remained controversial and divisive.
