At the reception, Emma's sisters and the other bridesmaids were tight-lipped when Sarah began demanding to know why there were blue petals. Most of Sarah's other bridesmaids were also Emma's friends, had attended Emma's wedding, and were in on Emma's scheme. Sarah looked very confused upon seeing the blue petals (which didn't coordinate whatsoever with her theme), but of course she didn't say anything about it in the moment. She told her sisters not to say anything about it or let the bride see them until it was time to scatter them down the aisle. At the very last moment, Emma switched out the white petals in their baskets to blue ones she had secretly brought with her. Sarah later picked Emma to be the maid of honor at her own wedding, which took place last weekend (I wasn't there for it, but my cousin sent me some of the best bits on snapchat and explained the whole situation).Įmma's two much-younger sisters were the flower girls at Sarah's wedding. This was unusual, as Emma is typically quite confrontational and speaks her mind no matter the consequences. She looked like she was on the verge of tears, but she kept grinning and acted very happy for the other couple. My cousin's wife (I'll call her Emma) didn't make a scene or utter a single negative word about Sarah. The attention was immediately taken away from the newlyweds and brought to the bridesmaid (who I'll call Sarah) and her equally-smug fiancé. However, after the ceremony was over and the party had only just started, one of the bridesmaids decided to announce her own engagement. His bride and her family had been close with ours since before I was born, and the couple had known each other since they were toddlers, so it was a particularly exciting event for both sides of the family. Apparently that works for some people.(Originally I posted this to r/pettyrevenge, but I think it belongs here.) So perhaps the only answer is to venture out in the real world. It should also be noted that no country recognizes human-animal marriages. Too bad Chen’s self-marriage is only a symbol - you can’t actually register a marriage to yourself. No nagging, no whining, no messy divorce, no in-laws! But perhaps the rest of the world just hasn’t seen the light - maybe her idea has some merits. She started an online campaign that was filled with mostly sympathetic comments. “If I had a steady boyfriend, I wouldn’t do this… it would be offensive to him, anyway.” She just wanted to add some spice to the age-old tradition and enlisted a wedding planner, bought a dress and made plans for a reception next month.įrom Reuters: “I was just hoping more people would love themselves,” said Chen, who will go on a solo honeymoon to Australia. To be fair, Chen isn’t really in love with herself.
But then she realized that the person she was meant to be with had been there all along (like you see in the movies). Like most people in today’s world, Chen Wei-yih felt pressure to settle down, but there just wasn’t anyone good enough. The next issue of NP Posted will soon be in your inbox.
