There's only one big menu choice that would be enough for me to turn down a wedding invitation and that's if it's going to be dry. Making it vegetarian is fine.
A bride on Reddit has been shocked by the response she received from guests after telling them the menu was going to be vegetarian. One guest even joked that they were planning on bringing KFC along to the wedding to make up for the lack of meat.
She has reached out to the online forum to determine if she's being unreasonable by denying her guests meat. After all, she's spending more than £5,000 on the three-course, meat-free, menu.
Voicing her woes, she said, "We've tasted the food and it's all lovely. I'm hoping people arrive and are pleasantly surprised. We've also had people joking about ordering KFC to the wedding venue." Honestly, I think if she hadn't even mentioned it, most guests probably wouldn't have realized.
A Tasty Wedding Menu Regardless Of Missing Meat
She's listed her wedding menu, and honestly, it sounds like there is no need for KFC. The starter is a suitably cheesy spring roll with caramelized onion & goat cheese tart. Alternatively, it's creamy mushrooms on ciabatta. She has her main as mushroom risotto or a roasted veg parcel with pesto salad tofu on wild rice. Dessert is brownie or cheesecake.
As much as a meat eater as I am, I wouldn't turn my nose up at that vegetarian wedding menu. None of it is obnoxiously vegetarian, and there is plenty of protein in there for busting a few moves to the wedding DJ later.
Bringing KFC to the wedding seems a little overboard. Many of the comments agree with the bride. "Imagine being so closed-minded that you couldn't eat a different type of food for one meal without complaining to your hosts. Some people really think they're the center of the universe."
It's a fair point. After all, the bride and groom are prepared to spend tens of thousands of pounds throwing a party. It's up to them what the guests eat, and if they don't like it they can just not come. They certainly shouldn't be sneaking greasy KFC into the wedding.
