Groomzilla vs. Emily: Who’s Right in this Wedding Guest List Drama?
In the throes of wedding planning, Groomzilla and Emily find themselves locked in a battle over the guest list. Emily’s small family and friend circle are dwarfed by Groomzilla’s extensive list of over 175 guests. Despite attempts at compromise, such as ‘no kids’ and ‘no plus ones’ rules, and even a ‘team bride’ button for Groomzilla’s guests, Emily still feels outnumbered. Groomzilla, however, has lost patience, telling Emily to ‘get over it’ and even suggesting she make more friends before the wedding! As the wedding bells chime closer, the tension grows. Let’s see what the internet thinks of this clash of the guest lists…

She is an introvert who has friends and you cannot be bothered to understand her, you just insult her. My husband and I are both introverts and had a small wedding. If I had had to deal with 175 people, I would have slept around the clock for a day or so from exhaustion and ruined my honeymoon. And I have a small circle of close, wonderful friends and good social skills. I just need time to myself or just with my husband. You and Emily need to talk about how you envision your life together given your different personalities.”
