Welcome to Lauren's Wedding

How long until she is gregnant?
At least this bridezilla is honest.
That sign cost more than my wedding
- ...i think we paid $500 all-in, including the minister, the gazebo, and taking the wedding party to lunch afterward...
  
  Uncle married us, at my aunt's house(nice spot) and my dad paid for lunch after. Only mistake I made was I didn't know my mom was out of town so she wasn't there 🤣. But my wife gave her a grandchild so that's water under the bridge now. Wife's dress was like $35 from Francesca's and I wore a suit I already had. Her engagement ring on the other hand was like $8k. My wending band $30 and a possible future ring finger degloved because it's titanium.
- I think the sign is designed to make it easy to change "Greg" to someone else and reuse.
  
  TFW your name as fiancee is written with white board marker.
  
  Im sure you are her 1st choice.
- Eh, it could very easily be a DIY with a vinyl cutter
  
  Still more expensive than my wedding lol
  
  You're saying it's easy to DIY and get a result that doesn't look like shit?
Hey Greg!
Welcome to Lauren’s marriage.
If I get married this is how I want the invitations worded
- With Laura's name, and also Greg? Or with your and your partner's names?
  
  Cheaper to change our names lol
  
  Why not both?
- If.
  
  If.
If we're laughing, there's a chance they were too.
- I think it's 100% a joke
  
  Can we ever really be 100% sure of anything?
Im just here for the Greg
- I'm sure he's in there somewhere
  
  I'll have one sausage roll and an Irn Bru
  
  Perhaps he's this guy.
This is so hilarious that now I have to get married.
- What do you plan to marry?
  
  Probably Greg in a few weeks
I wonder if Greg has ever drunk baileys from a shoe.
- Can she learn to love him?
  
  You've seen my downstairs mixup.
Run, Greg, Run!

I don't know what she brings to the party, but this is likely one of many red flags she's been waving. Just because you go through with the wedding doesn't mean the flags vanish.

Edit: just noticed the date on the sign. RIP, Greg. Good luck to you.
- Or, crazy idea, maybe it's a joke they both find funny?
  
  This is why terminally online people are terminally single. Everything is red flag gaslight abuse break up immediately.
  
  I was really hoping the "get a divorce" culture was something that would have stayed with reddit
  
  Yeah, I had a shitty marriage, and I found this genuinely funny
  
  It can be a joke they both find funny and also a red flag. What are we joking about here.. how controlling someone is about the wedding?
  
  It can also be absolutely not a red flag.
  
  The joy of the internet includes pontificating.
  
  It's a red flag of Greg doesn't like it. Could have been a red flag if Lauren wasn't sure how Greg would react to it when she showed it to him (mostly dependent on how she would react if he didn't like it). Same if any of the above happened with roles reversed.
  
  But yeah, odds are Greg and Lauren both find it funny.
  
  I also think it would be a funny way of directing the bride's guests and the groom's guests. The bride's will be directed to "Laura's Wedding, Featuring Greg," and the groom's to "Greg's Wedding, Featuring Laura."
- Greg must be a very patient man because Lauren seems exhausting.
  
  Or she thought the sign would be funny. Made me giggle.
  
  How do you know Greg didn't make the joke? Do you now Greg and Lauren? Did you give them a gift off their registry or did you do the right thing and give them cold hard cash (via check)? Did you tip the bartender a 20 to start the night and say "remember this face!" and proceed to order thirteen G&Ts over the course of the ceremony?
- If this wasn't a joke, why would this even exist at the wedding?
Which of the four Gregs is it tho?
- Probably Regular Greg from AP Calculus.
Get out, Greg. It's not too late, Greg. I know that the wedding already happened, but divorce exists for a reason, Greg. Respect yourself because she never will, Greg.

Greg.
“Welcome to Laura’s Wedding

~~feat. greg~~
- * weɖɖing
  
  Wepping
See, everyone hates Greg
- Is it because everybody loves Raymond?
- I thought it was Chris
  
  Chris is a bastard too.
But who's the Best Boy?
Shut up, Greg.
Poor Karen, they put the wrong name on the sign! Greg is fine tho.
😓
Why why WHY ?!
- Could be
  
  Intentional self aware and self effacing humour from the couple
  
  A tongue in cheek thing arranged by either the bride or groom
  
  She did all the work in arranging it and he doesn't give a shit about marriage so a passive aggressive way of her celebrating an event that matters for he, but not for him
  
  Soneone photoshopping
  
  Why does it matter so much to women? Noone is being crowned nor is it a beauty pageant. Half of marriges end in divorce. It causes stress to guests and participants. Why not just go to a judge?
