Couple decides last-minute on "married couples only" wedding, rescinds dozens of invitiations, friends and family members cut ties after sleight: "We've been together longer than the bride and groom!"

Salutations, tea-sippin' sisters. If there's anything we've all learned by scrolling through CheezCake articles, it's that marriage is no measure of a relationship's stability, healthiness, or commitment. Indeed, just because two people have decided to tie the knot and say some words in front of the altar does not mean that they are incapable of lying, cheating, and ignoring each other's needs. Similarly, a long-term couple that has not made the decision to walk down the aisle might have great communication, be really effective at compromise, and generally be more suited to a long-term relationship.

In our story today, a bride and groom rescind all wedding invitations to plus-ones that are not married. Thus, close friends and even family members find themselves suddenly excluded from the celebration at the last minute. Was this just a ploy to cut down on the number of guests after overspending the budget elsewhere? Come and speculate with the rest of us by scrolling down!

It is reasonable to put your foot down and say no to your cousin's boyfriend of one month, but excluding long-term partners that you regularly dine and hang out with is diabolical.

There is definitely more going on behind-the-scenes. This excuse to save face is actually more embarrassing than just being honest.
