My Husband’s Over-the-Top Wedding Demands

My husband made several demands for our wedding, including custom floral arrangements, and three flavors of cupcakes. But the demand that left me speechless was he wanted us to… learn the Charleston and perform it for everyone (it turned out cute).

He insisted on a small custom-cutting cake with quilted fondant, gold pearl accents, dahlia sugar flowers, and a custom topper — he specifically asked for these decorations.

He also instead of rice, birdseed, or bubbles for a send-off, he wanted kazoos. He also had to approve every song played during the reception including the order of when songs were played. He had to review and approve every table place card, centerpiece, and decoration (all of which were handmade by me). And, on top of all that, his suit/shoes cost 4x what my dress/shoes cost. And his ring was more expensive than my wedding band and engagement ring combined.
