Bride Doesn't Plan Enough Accommodations For Her Wedding In Spain And Bodyshames Her Friend In An Attempt To Guilt Her Into Giving Up Her Villa

Some wedding plans fall apart over flowers or seating charts, but this one turned into a fight over a villa in Spain. A Reddit user said she booked early, found a great deal, and chose a place with a private pool because she did not want to stay somewhere public after losing weight and feeling self-conscious about her body.

That decision became the center of the conflict when her friends, who were getting married, later asked her to give up the villa so the bride's family could stay there instead. They offered to reimburse her, but OP had booked it for a reason and did not want to give up the privacy she had planned around.

Then the bride's reaction made everything worse, and the friendship started to crack. Read on.

The bride flipped and told OP she was selfish for hogging the villa just because she's too scared to let her flab out.

OP's husband advised her to let it go since it was their special day and they shouldn't cause additional problems for the couple. However, OP believes she wasn't wrong, and besides attending their friend's wedding, this was OP's and her husband's only chance to take a really nice vacation.

Is OP the a**hole for refusing to give up the villa? Read her original post below for more details:

"I lost a lot of weight."

"We got a good deal because we booked early."

"My husband thinks I should just let it go."

In Reddit's opinion, OP is absolutely not the a**hole and she needs to reevaluate her friendships.

The comments did not exactly give the bride a pass.

The story made this pretty clear

Aren't accommodations supposed to be a part of wedding planning?

Neurotic_Bakeder

They should be, but it looks like the bride and groom missed a crucial part of the preparations.

That left a lot of people wondering why OP was being asked to fix it.

And if you think guilt trips are bad, check out the OP who asked her friend to split vacation costs after a last-minute backout.

Who wouldn't want the villa booked by OP months in advance?

They're probably not immediate family members but rather those who didn't plan ahead.

Favors are one thing, but what the bride asked of OP is unreasonable.

TenderOctane

Exactly this.

Some readers thought OP should treat the villa like a bonus vacation instead.

OP should just treat this as a well-deserved grand vacation for her and her husband...

Better yet, let her husband attend the wedding since he is friends with the groom and OP is just a plus-one.

Just because it's your wedding doesn't mean you can be a jerk.

Others pointed out that the rental was already in OP's name, which made the request even messier.

Logistically speaking, this would definitely put OP in a bind since her name is on that rental agreement.

It was a feeble attempt to emotionally manipulate OP into giving in to whatever the bride asks...

... and if OP's husband can't see how his wife is being wronged here, he is also exhibiting a**holish behavior.

Anyone would be honored to be invited to a friend's wedding day. It means they consider your relationship good enough that they want you to share in their happiness.

However, you do not get a pass to be inconsiderate simply because you spent thousands on a party. It was a lack of planning on their part that caused all of the issues, and it's not up to OP to smooth things over, no matter how much the bride whines.
