The couple's friends are now divided about who's in the wrong. Read on to find out what happened and decide for yourself: was the bride-to-be an a**hole or not?

Dry wedding sparks outrage, friend insults bride. AITA?

A dry wedding is one where no alcohol is served, and in most cases, it is a personal preference. One bride-to-be had a dry wedding, and a friend did not take it lightly. He called her to ask if she was joking, and when she denied it, he became furious. He asked her how he was supposed to have fun without alcohol and that it wasn't alright to choose a dry wedding. The bride told him that she was not obligated to provide alcohol to him just because he couldn't have fun without it. This led to a heated argument, and the friend used many slurs on her. The bride took his invitation back until he apologized. The post has generated mixed reactions, and people are divided on who the asshole is. While some think the bride is right, others think she was wrong. Some argue that it is the wedding day, and it's all about having fun; others think it's a personal preference and guests should respect that. What do you think?
