People love to spend on events like weddings as they are considered among the ‘once in a lifetime’ moments by many. And wedding photoshoots, which capture the memories of the big day, are often prioritised by the couple. With photoshoots being extremely expensive, it's normal for couples to ask for a refund or compensation if the photographs are not good enough. But a story of a bride demanding a refund for an unusual reason is going viral on Reddit.
Taking to the internet, a wedding photographer shared an incident where the bride demanded a refund because the second photographer ended up having an affair with the groom after the wedding. The photographer has been left confused as he is not sure of his next action and has asked the netizens to give their suggestions.
The Redditor with the name ‘Wedding_dude’, posted about the incident and captioned it, “Bride wants a refund after groom had an affair.... with my second shooter.”
Bride wants a refund after groom had an affair.... with my second shooter

The user explained that the incident took place a while back, where he hired a second photographer as his regular one couldn't make it. Everything went smoothly in the end as the final photographs were delivered to the couple without any issue or delay. However, the story turned ugly as the photographer recently received a mail from the bride asking for a refund. It was then revealed that the second photographer ended up sleeping with the groom sometime after the wedding.
The description in the post read, “Earlier this summer I shot a wedding. My typical second shooter couldn't make it, so I found someone else online who I felt did good work. Anyways her and I did the wedding, and everything seemed business as usual. Photos were edited, delivered to client, all was good. Then this morning I got an email from the bride. She was wanting a refund because the lady I had hired as second shooter for the day ended up sleeping with her husband at some point after the wedding, and she also included photos from his phone to prove it.”
The user then continued to ask the netizens for suggestions as he couldn't decide how to handle the situation.
The post went viral as people found it hilarious. Most of the netizens suggested against refunding the fee as the service has already been provided. The post has pulled many up-votes and the netizens took to the comment box to share their views.
“This is by far the best post of the year in this sub. Congrats. You win,” a user wrote. “Offer her a discount on her next wedding,” wrote a second person. “This sounds harsh, but her husband was going to cheat on her regardless of who your second shooter was. It’s not your fault that she married him,” pointed out a third viewer. “I'd ask your second shooter for her side of the story. And make sure to update us,” added a fourth. “This happened after the wedding, correct? If so, it has nothing to do with you or the service your business provided,” another user said.
