Destination weddings are a scam! - GoFuckYourself.com

xNetworx · 08-12-2010, 12:28 PM

The bride and groom usually get a free honeymoon/wedding from the resort by getting all their friends and family to haul ass down to Mexico or wherever and spend a a fuck ton of money at an all inclusive resort when they could just have it near where they, or the majority of their friends and family live. But oh no, then they would actually have to pay for everybody's food and drinks and not get a free honeymoon.

Its a fuckin scam!

Who asks people to drop 1000s to go to a wedding during a recession?

A very good buddy. Have no choice. I'm in the wedding. It just pissed me off when I found out they get a freebie while everybody else gets hosed.

we went to a wedding in Puerto Rico last year and it was a blast for us all to have a few days together.

No doubt it will be a good time. I was just annoyed when the bride forwarded me the email for the travel agent and she forwarded their entire conversation by mistake and she was asking how many rooms/packages they have to book for them to get 7 nights comped!!

Exactly, if you can't afford it or you can not make it... don't go. This isn't rocket science Leroy. Unfortunately the airlines don't take food stamps or section 8 vouchers.

You obviously have no friends and missed the point. Go crawl back in your troll-hole.

Apart from fucking up with the email forwarding she sounds like a shrewd woman.

That kinda blows.

But i have a 2 friends that have everything and are getting married next month. My friend told me that nobody needs to bring them a gift. Then i recommended Destination Wedding. The have a deal where everyone who goes to the wedding(which will be kind of local), instead of bringing a gift, they can all chip in for the Honeymoon.

Its a great alternative for the people that already have everything.

But your situation kinda sux. Sorry dude.

I have heard some people who refer to blacks as "canadians". Stop trolling me now ya d-bag. Shouldn't you be getting ready for your shift at Burger King or something?

The Heron · 08-12-2010, 12:58 PM

I kinda like em, it keeps all the poor useless fucks home and you know who your real friends are. Though instead of comping the bride/groom would be cooler if they knocked the price down for everyone else or something like that. The actually 'wedding' is bs but whatever its fun

xmas13 · 08-12-2010, 12:58 PM

What about selling your car and recovering your old bicycle?

You tell people you want to contribute to the fight against global warming.

Leonardo DiCaprio inspired you, you got all emotional watching his end of the world documentary film.

I have no problem paying for this wedding. Its basically peanuts to me. Its the principle. I know some of the guests who are close friends with the bride or groom and were invited but they have kids, are out of work etc. and cant just drop $2500 for a 3 day fiesta in Mexico.

xmas13 · 08-12-2010, 01:06 PM

Anyway, sorry for the upcoming loss.

Indeed.

Destination weddings are usually all paid for. Everything is meant to be paid for by the brides father in tradition.

I suppose the difference could be asking everyone to pay for their own flights but the rooms & food is paid for... this could be a happy ending. In this case of the bride wanting a freebie.. Bitch.

Tell them you're going, but that you found accomodations real close at a much cheaper rate and see what their reaction is. $2500 for 3 days from Phx to Mex seems excessive.

pornstar2fag · 08-12-2010, 04:33 PM

loser. regardless of what you say, you aint no baller or you wouldn't even complain.

you'll be back to checking groceries in no time. that or begging for a job on here.

Thats for 2 people. I just think its wack to make all your friends and family pay for your wedding AND honeymoon.

Funny All the haters in this thread accusing me of being a cheap ass. (not u lazy)

Anybody with a job gets hated on by angry GFY no-name losers. So weak.

fatfoo · 08-12-2010, 07:06 PM

People of a country could be in a recession as an average measure per person.
This does not mean everyone's personal economy is in a recession.
1000s of rich customers can be found.

L-Pink · 08-12-2010, 07:16 PM

So what about old aunts & uncles, grandparents that might have the money but don't or can't fly. What about those that can't take off of work? They just get left out?

And who want's to invite everyone to the honeymoon location anyway?

I guess I'm cheap. I don't find it to be my responsibility to pay for somebody else's wedding. I give a gift, of course, but it's nothing extravagant. The cost of weddings are getting out of hand and the bride and groom should not expect to pawn that off on their guests. Those guests have other weddings and other obligations.

I never told anyone to get married!

Yeah I hear ya, and I can see how it puts you in a tough spot because you're in the wedding and essentially don't have a choice. I think instead of the bride and groom working out a deal to get their accommodations free, they should have negotiated a group rate for everyone to stay at a reduced rate because they were having their wedding there, sounds like they got a little greedy. Obviously if you hadn't seen the email you'd have never known.

PurrrsianPussyKat · 08-12-2010, 10:35 PM

Be sure not to give them a wedding present.. and when they ask why tell them you spent all your money getting there. LOL

The one's having the wedding are supposed to pay for those in the wedding, and most of the guests.

People who only want their real close friends and family to show up.

Small wedding party, enjoy the time with your real friends and close family. Not a bad way to do things.

You don't want to drop the money to go, perfect, I'm sure the bride and groom aren't crying over it any. perfect way to exclude the fence sitters without actually having to say "fuck off, i don't want you at my wedding."

Actually the bride and groom would be upset, since the email indicated that they need everyone to go in order for them to get their accommodations comped.

Why do you worry about what they are paying or not paying so much, you should be happy for your friends who have LOTS of other expenses to make it all happen. Is it coming out of your pocket? no. I think it's pretty standard for the bride and groom to get comped at these destination weddings. My friends got married in Dominican, went for 3 weeks including honeymoon, and I think the first 2 weeks were comped.

It is coming out of his pocket. Quite a bit of time off of work, flight down there, price of the resort, etc.
