In a viral post shared on U.K.-based discussion website Mumsnet, which can be seen here, user MummyDrinksWine explained she was getting married next year and that the venue has accommodation as part of its wedding package.

The post added that some family members would need to be placed in larger static caravans, while other guests would be given cottages to stay in.

According to the wedding planning website The Knot, the average wedding size in 2021 was 105 guests, a major increase on 2020 when it was 66 guests, likely due to the impact of the COVID pandemic.

The Mumsnet user then asked for advice after being worried about being dubbed a “bridezilla” for thinking some of her family had been a bit “cheeky.”

She continued: “Anyway, I’ve had an email from our venue today asking if we’ve asked guests to sort the accommodation through us or through them, as they have [had] someone ring to try and book one of the accommodations. I asked for a name so I can let them know to sort it through us.

“You’ve guessed it. Said unhappy family have rang the venue to try and book the accommodation I’ve told them isn’t available to them because it means other people miss out.

“I thought it was really quite cheeky, almost comically so. But now I’ve had time to digest it, I’m pretty annoyed. Thankfully the venue didn’t allow them to book but if they had it would have meant all the accommodation plans I’ve drawn up would be ruined and it’s taken me weeks to sort it out. "

Since being shared on Sunday, September 25, the post has received nearly 300 responses from other Mumsnet users.

The vast majority agreed with the commenter and were furious to learn about what her family members had tried to do.

One Mumsnet user said: “Your relative is overstepping. You’ve explained the situation and they’d and they’d rather let somebody else miss out just sleep somewhere slightly different themselves.”

Another added: “I’d ask them what the f*** they were paying at and consider uninviting them.”

A third commented: “I’d be super peeved off. Not bridezilla at all.”

While a fourth posted: “OMG (oh my God) the cheeky b*******. I would just message them giving them a deadline to confirm if they’ll be using the accommodation offered or you’ll give it to someone else.

“Don’t even mention their call to the venue, they’ll know you know.”

Newsweek was not able to verify the details of the case.
