A lady has revealed that her soon to be married sister is making people who wish to attend her upcoming wedding write a 500 word essay to apply for an invite!
The sister of the bride to be revealed all on the reddit forum 'AmITheAsshole' . The post is believed to be from the U.S , no surprises there, only in America right people!
The wedding is coming up next year in February and due to the crazy Covid-19 scene, the proposed wedding venue now has capacity restrictions which means that the guest list needed to be cut in half.
The really weird part is that the bride to be is actually making everybody apply and this includes family, even her parents! In the essay application, two questions are to be answered and they are "why do you want to celebrate this day with us?" and "what will attending our wedding mean to you specifically?".
Apparently the theory behind this whole essay idea is to figure out which guests are the keenest to attend and they will be the ones who win a ticket. Bizarre stuff to say the least but hey, it is 2020 and definitely not the weirdest thing that has happened so far this year.
The sister of the bride to be advised everyone on Reddit that anyone who doesn't write an essay will be automatically disqualified. She doesn't plan on writing an essay so it will be interesting to see if she misses the wedding or not.
Good on her we say, there is no way I would be applying to attend my sisters wedding!

This story is definitely an unusual take on wedding planning, but I can see how it makes the guest list feel extra special. When planning a big event like this, I always think about how personal touches, like curated gifts or unique themes, can leave a lasting impression. For me, exploring places like shopping in St. Augustine helps find those perfect little details that make an occasion stand out. Whether it’s handcrafted decor or meaningful keepsakes, having access to charming local shops adds something truly memorable to the experience. Weddings are all about making it uniquely yours, just like this idea!
