A BRIDE has shared how her friend grew furious when she refused to change her vampire wedding theme.

The frustrated friend took to Reddit to explain how her friends called her goth wedding “too much” and “over the top” before refusing to come.

 "I was told that I should go more traditional since my style freaks people out and I could tone down the look,” the user posted on the infamous AITA channel, where people seek advice on life and conflicts. 

The Redditor, a 24-year-old woman, said she and her fiance, a 30-year-old man, have been together for two years and they both have a Gothic style.

“Our home is like Addams family since we brought an abandoned Victorian style home,” she said.

The couple met at their city's vampire ball, so they decided to do that theme, with a royal and gothic angle for their wedding at an old castle.
