Couple Feed Their Wedding Guests With McDonald’s, Commenters Called Them “Cheap”

Despite the fact that a wedding is one of the most thrilling and important days of a newlywed’s life, the substantial costs associated with this event can become overwhelming. In an attempt to economize, a newlywed couple in TikTok made the unconventional decision to serve McDonald’s meals to their guests. However, their choice sparked online criticism and trolling.

The video, which garnered 2.3 million views, had the caption: “Thanks for the treat at our wedding.” The happy couple had ordered over 300 burgers, wraps, and nuggets from the well-known fast-food chain for their wedding attendees. However, when the groom posted a clip of the celebration on social media, the newlyweds faced a wave of criticism. Trolls blamed the newlyweds for not providing their guests with high-quality cuisine and accused them of being “cheap.”

One comment said: “Given the price of McDonald’s now it’s better to take a caterer, and you’ll have quality as well.” Another added: “Guys stop! It’s not a question of going to the wedding for the food. But McDonald’s, what?”

The couple defended their choice, saying: “I was afraid that we were going to pay for something that we did not like. If you are going to pay, you may as well get something you like.” Other comments agreed with them, saying, “I’d rather eat McDonald’s at my wedding than go into debt for 25 years for a wedding.” Another person commented: “Finally, people who have the wedding they want to have without going into debt to show off. Be happy!”

And some commenters even concocted a joke: “The joke... wedding meal MC do it’s worth a nice envelope with 3 euros in it as a wedding gift.”

While others made a note: “Whether you take a great caterer or MC do you will have the critics the wedding is to unite above all.”

Unconventional weddings are a creative and unique way for couples to express their personalities and break away from tradition. Nowadays, it is not such a rare case to hear about an older lady marrying a much younger man. Even celebrities can surprise us, like Elizabeth Taylor, the actress who got married 8 times to 7 different men.
