Her Maid Of Honor’s Boyfriend Wanted To Propose At Her Wedding But She Said No And Now They’re Both Angry With Her
Last month, a 27-year-old woman got married to her 30-year-old husband. Their wedding was on the smaller side, but it was absolutely lovely and just what she wanted.
Just two weeks before this bride was set to tie the knot with her groom, she was surprised when the boyfriend of her maid of honor (who is also her very best friend) asked her a pretty big favor.
Her maid of honor’s boyfriend wanted to propose to her maid of honor…at her wedding reception.
“I first told him how thrilled I was that he was proposing to my friend and how excited she would be, but I really wasn’t comfortable with him proposing during the wedding, at least as a public thing,” she said.
Her maid of honor’s boyfriend was completely taken aback by her answer, and he really thought she was going to agree to his proposal happening at her wedding.
He replied back to her that weddings are all about love, and she should be happy he picked her wedding to propose to her maid of honor, whom he has been dating for 11 years.
This bride didn’t want him to get it twisted; she was happy he wanted to propose, she just wasn’t happy about where he wanted to do it.
“…I just didn’t understand why it needed to happen during the 5.5-hour window of my ceremony/cocktail hour/reception,” she explained.
“I was very apologetic and offered to help however I could with the proposal on any other day, but he was clearly not happy with me.”

Her wedding happened, the proposal didn’t, and then she stopped hearing from her maid of honor after her wedding went by.
She talked to her very frequently, so she was surprised that her maid of honor was not replying to her, despite the fact that she reached out to her multiple times.
She also ended up finding something at her wedding that her maid of honor left behind, and although she told her maid of honor that, she still did not get an answer.
A few days ago, she sent her maid of honor another text stating that she was going to bring what her maid of honor forgot at her wedding to her maid of honor’s house and just drop it off.
After that text, her maid of honor did reply.
“Apparently, during the after-party at the hotel bar, MOH’s bf got very drunk and told her that she would’ve been engaged that night if I hadn’t ruined his plan,” she continued.
Her maid of honor did not really say she was upset with her directly, but she clearly thinks she ended up ruining her happiness, as well as her engagement.
She apologized to her maid of honor, but things got weird after that.
A friend that she and her maid of honor both share approached her to mention that she was a jerk for refusing to let her maid of honor’s boyfriend go through with proposing at her wedding.
Personally, I would not want anyone proposing during my wedding day, and I fully side with this bride.
