"I'd pay for yours, but whatever."According to the bride's status, after people were unwilling to pay $3,000 to attend her wedding in Thailand, she and the groom changed the event's location to Hawaii so it would be "within everyone's reach." The updated cost for guests' $2,000, according to the Facebook post.But even then, the bride said in her status, only seven guests RSVP-eda fact that boggled her mind: "It costs less but less of you wanna come'!" she wrote. "Is that what you think of [my fianc] and me' You can't spare $2K to come share our happiness'"Ostensibly fed up with her guests' reluctance to pay thousands of dollars to attend her destination wedding, the bride continued: "I'm tempted to just elope and not let any of you be a part of our happiest day."She then gave her guests an ultimatum: They had to respond to her e-vite in three days or she and the groom would unfriend them on Facebook. "Good luck keeping up with our lives then," she wrote.The brideended her status with a brief complaint about what people had been buying off her registry. "Only the cheap stuff is gone," she wrote. "I swear I thought I had better friends. [My fianc] and I are asking you to reconsider."On Reddit, people were in disbelief. Many wondered why the bride was accusing her guests of being cheap when she and the groom had decided to send electronicinvites. Others said the couple should have had more realistic expectations about the number of guests who would be able to attend a destination wedding.According toReddit userso_long_and_thanks_, the bride later posted another Facebook status the day after she shared her original message."Now [my fianc] is giving me a hard time over my earlier status," the bride wrote. "Can nobody understand where I'm coming from'"She continued: "Jeez all I wanted is to share my day with y'all, that's not too much to ask. I hoped at least my 'love' would understand that."Reddit userso_long_and_thanks_ did not immediately respond to INSIDER's request for comment.It's worth mentioning that this bride's angry status isn't the first of its type to go viral in recent months.In July, a bride-to-be identified only by the name "Alex" fired her bridesmaid, CourtneyDuffy, over email. After Duffy shared screenshots of the cringe-worthy message on Twitter, many said they found Alex's request reasonable while others thought the whole exchange between the two women was awkward.One month later, another bride canceled her wedding four days before it was scheduled to take place because her guests wouldn't contribute $1,500 each. According to a series of screenshots from a "wedding-shaming" Facebook group that Twitter user0lspicykeychainshared, only eight people had agreed to attend her wedding.In a status on Facebook, the bride, who has not been identified, said all she wanted was "to be a Kardashian for a day."Visit INSIDER's homepage for more.Join the conversation about this storyNOW WATCH: A fashion designer created a transforming bridesmaid dress that fits every body type
