Weddings are always fraught with drama. There’s a reason why couples get extremely stressed about their big day!
One woman made the decision to have a “child-free” wedding, which caused some fallout with a friend. As such, the bride decided to go on Reddit’s “Am I The A**hole?” community and describe her situation for some community input.
The OP laid it all out and explained the situation. They and their fiancé have been planning a wedding that would be adults-only. The wedding had been getting closer and one of the bridesmaids became angry about the OP’s stance. Drama then ensued.

What did you think of this bride’s decision and the ensuing argument? Do you have anything you’d add in the comments?
No worries! No one will judge you either way!
