A bride-to-be has demanded that her fiance get a second job so she can focus on full-time wedding planning which she says requires all of her attention.

A bride-to-be has come under fire after she posted on Reddit asking for ways to convince her fiance to get a second job. The bride says she gave up work recently as planning their wedding was taking up all of her time but needs her future husband to take on extra work to fund the extravagant nuptials.

Equal Responsibility

The bride says that she can’t understand why her fiance is refusing to find additional employment, especially when she has put so much effort in to planning their big day.

“I quit my job because wedding planning was taking up so much time,” she wrote in her post. “He doesn’t understand that I don’t have time to get ready for work, be somewhere else all day and drive home. I need to be HOME to plan this wedding.”

Despite her husband-to-be asking her to reduce costs so he doesn’t need to find another source of income, the bride says she won’t give up her $80,000 dream wedding.

“This is MY WEDDING that I have been dreaming of since I was little,” she said. “What happened to ‘happy wife, happy life’?!”

Missing The Point

The bride says that she is determined to find her fiance additional work whatever it takes, but admits that her persistence has put a strain on their relationship.

“We can’t stop fighting and I don’t know what to do!” she told the forum. “How can I convince him to get a second job to pay for this?”

Comments on the bride’s post suggested that her inability to compromise, and lack of concern for her fiance, could be a bad sign for things to come.

“This isn’t just a red flag,” wrote one forum user. “This is a strobe light with a few fog horns attached to it!”

“Did you read the post?” another asked. “She is having a WEDDING…the marriage is irrelevant.”

While we won’t deny that wedding planning can be time-consuming and stressful, we can’t help but feel that this bride has forgotten what a marriage is all about…

Do you think this bride-to-be is out of line? Share your thoughts in the comments.

  • This is insane. Ridiculous expectations on her part.

  • Wow! This poor guy had better get out now, while he still can! What is going to happen after the wedding? Will she be too exhausted from her special day to find another job? And will he need a 3rd job when they have children, so she can be a stay at home mum?

  • Oh dear. I particularly like the comment “This isn’t just a red flag,” wrote one forum user. “This is a strobe light with a few fog horns attached to it!” Says it all.

  • It seems a bit too much really. I wonder if she will be a Bridzilla. 🙂

  • She is completely in the wrong. Who needs to plan a wedding full time? And who is going to pay for it!

  • Ha. Ha. I find it really unbelievable. I just don’t understand why people would spend so much money and energy in a wedding! I personally don’t like big weddings. Or people borrowing money from the bank to pay for a wedding.

  • I rather hope she gets dumped. He should refuse to pay for any of it. Tell her his dream wedding is a courthouse job. She’ll spontaneously combust and he can go find a nice girl with her priorities in the right order.
