Bride and groom slammed over the 'worst wedding invitation ever' after furious guests noticed one tiny detail: 'It's going in the bin'

Bride sends an invitation asking friends not invited to join wedding in spiritREAD MORE: Couple slammed over tacky request on wedding invitations

A young couple have been slammed online after a photo of their wedding 'invite' went viral.

The bride and groom to be decided they would get hitched in a 'private ceremony' but still sent out cards months in advance asking loved ones to 'join them in spirit'.

The bride assumed the cards would soften the blow for loved ones who weren't invited to the wedding.

But it appeared to do the opposite and was slammed as 'patronising and rude' with hundreds of infuriated women claiming it was 'nothing but a present grab'.

'Great way to let people know they aren't invited but you'd still like a present,' one person wrote on the card.

'Not even a virtual wedding, this is just tacky,' said another.

And their view was universal.

'We're having a wedding, you're not invited,' one woman joked.

A bride posting this invitation online asking guests not invited to her private ceremony to attend in 'spirt' (spirit) was slammed with negative comments and accused of 'gift fishing'

'If I got this, it would go straight in the trash,' another said.

'I'd use it as kindling for the fire pit,' suggested another.

Others pointed out they had misspelled spirit 'spirt'.

'I spirt my drink out,' one woman joked.

'I am not sure how to be anywhere in spirt,' cried another.

Some said the invite would cause chaos.

'She's going to get so many confused phone calls about this,' one person said.

'People will be confused about where to buy tickets,' said another.

This isn't the first time a bride and groom have been slammed in the group over a 'rude' invitation.

A recent invitation sent out for a 2024 wedding contained very particular instructions for what guests were allowed to wear.

The dress code was 'black cocktail attire' forbidding any accents of colour or white.

'Please avoid clothes including white which are reserved for the bride and groom. In addition to wearing black, please no jeans, shorts or athletic clothing,' said the invitation.

Some called the request extremely 'aggressive'.

The RSVP further required guests to tick a box confirming that black would be worn.

The first option said: 'I'm wearing all black! No white undershirts for men, no white or coloured detailing for women, strictly all black clothing.'

The second option read: 'I'm unsure about my outfit. I do not want to stick out and would like to ask more questions regarding what I plan to wear.'

The extreme instructions were met with scorn on social media.

'Nope. That's far too specific. No accent colors at all? And they're SO ADAMANT! I love black clothes, but take your aggressively goth demands elsewhere,' someone said.
