This is definitely one work email that you wouldn’t want to receive.
Shockingly though, the tone-deaf request was sent to over 6,000 colleagues despite the majority never meeting the bride-to-be.
Rather than just hitting delete, one co-worker decided to vent about the unwanted email on Reddit.
Originally posted in the , they revealed that the woman had sent the company-wide invite just a month before her destination wedding in Asia.

Knowing that the majority of her colleagues would never attend, the woman included a link to her registry and even asked for donations.
Sharing screen shots of the emails and the bride’s Venmo account, her co-worker revealed that they’d been furious about the request.
The bride had even gone to the trouble of adding the link to at least ‘seven’ places including, her out-of-office response and email signature.
Furious, her colleague pointedly wrote: “I don't know her or have ever worked with her, but it's been so cringy to witness this all go down. I also can't seem to escape it! She shares it everywhere!!!”

Despite this, senior managers had not called the bride out on her bad behaviour.
“My coworkers and I are annoyed no one in leadership or even her manager have not told her this behavior is not okay. Instead her shameless plugs have been escalating,” the Redditor added.

As the post continued to go viral, her colleague also revealed that co-workers were unable to actually RSVP – even thought they’d been ‘invited’.
“My coworker tried to RSVP but she had it on private so no one can actually RSVP or leave a comment,” they revealed.
However, this didn’t stop others suggesting how the annoyed worker should respond.
“Find her email and say you got a group together and are all super excited to go to her wedding and visit Asia,” teased one user.
Continuing, they stated that the boss should even get involved.
They commented: “Even better would be an email from the top dog saying how thrilled they are for her, and that the entire company will be closed for her wedding and they are chartering a plane so everyone can attend.”

Another suggested calling out the bride-to-be over her RSVP, saying: “Ooh someone should at least blast her for that! A reply all saying would love to join, tried to RSVP, but seems not to work.”
Meanwhile, others were furious about her cheeky request.
“I'm surprised she's able to send an email that large. Usually, this is restricted to certain people.
"She's a moron,” a third complained, with fourth arguing: “I think she’s hiding the blatant cash grab by pretending that she’s being so kind and generous by inviting everyone.”

A fifth agreed, saying: “It would be nice if management went a step further and either blocked her from emailing or fired her.”
We wonder if anyone actually donated to this bridezilla.

A Bride’s Ultimate Guide to Wedding Gifts
Fabulous's Digital Editor, Lydia Major, has shared her thoughts as a former bride on what to buy - and what not to buy - a couple for their big day.
I’m a traditionalist so I love to go to a wedding with a list. A list where the price points vary, the prezzies are a mix and there’s something for everyone. The joy of a list is we know the bride and groom want these things and we know no one else will buy the same - for me, that’s a win-win. I got married 8 years ago and still remember who bought us a certain photo frame or the posh-plate that only comes out at parties.
But, that being said, if someone doesn’t have a list I still would NEVER turn up empty handed. That’s plain rude. Even if the wedding cost an arm and a leg to get there. A wedding takes months, if not years,of planning, costs a fortune and it’s one of the best days out and the best parties you ever go to, so a small gesture of thanks is essential.
I still remember those who didn’t even bring a card to mine!
Also I don’t think a couple should ever quibble if guests want to give you a wedding present that’s not on your list – older generations, in particular, may feel this is more personal.
To be honest, it’s weddings where the couple want money contributed to their honeymoon or their house fund that makes me feel awkward. Is £50 tight, £150 too lavish? Where’s the benchmark? I spend weeks agonising over it talking to anyone or everyone going and then normally take a stab in the middle.
So for me - always go for a list, stick to the list and let the list be your guide!!
