A bride and groom who opted for a small wedding came up with a unique solution to include their larger circle of loved ones in the occasion.<\/p>\n

In a recent post<\/a> on the popular Reddit thread WeddingShaming, a friend of the couple explained that they were not invited to the wedding, a decision they were “totally cool” with considering the very small scale of the event. “Having a close-knit ceremony is everyone\u2019s prerogative,” they wrote.<\/p>\n

However, the friend said they were later invited \u2014 as part of a larger group \u2014 to watch the wedding on Zoom. Only, they wouldn’t be watching in real time. Instead, the bride and groom planned to share a recording<\/em> of their ceremony for the group to view together with them a week later.<\/p>\n

“In my mind, this is so tacky. Who wants to attend a Zoom session and watch a ceremony that already happened with the rest of the B squad and not even get rewarded with a party after?” the friend griped, writing in the post’s title that they felt like the bride and groom were “splitting” their guest list into “A-listers and B-listers.”<\/p>\n

In the comment section of the post, people weighed in on the couple’s behavior. Many agreed with the original poster that the Zoom viewing session was an offputting choice.<\/p>\n

“The offer of a live stream for anyone who can’t make it is a nice gesture. What they did is bonkers,” one Redditor wrote.<\/p>\n

“Is this a thing now? This is crazy,” another person chimed in. “They had their day and they picked the people they wanted to be a part of it. It is the equivalent of friends going on vacation and making you look at hundreds of their pictures when they get back.”<\/p>\n

Someone else joked, “It can be a struggle to attend Zoom meetings for work. No way I am going to a Zoom wedding.”<\/p>\n
