She continued by thanking the guests for their generous donations and letting them know that it will be spent on a ‘good cause’… their honeymoon.

She added that, after they regain financial stability, there will be a new date set for the wedding and their fund will be reopened.

She also let her guests know that the gift registry will be updated at this time!

Guests and family members were quick to clap back at the news with comments such as, “Is this a [bleep] joke?”.

Another guest accused the bride of day drinking.
