Overview
- An attendee’s Reddit post describes a DJ packing up and leaving halfway through dinner after the groom’s uncle repeatedly pushed for “real music,” meaning old country songs.
- With the DJ gone, the maid of honor connected her phone to the speakers while the best man took requests, a move the post says quickly unraveled the playlist.
- A breakup song linked to the groom’s ex reportedly played, prompting the bride to leave the room in tears before the couple eventually returned to a changed atmosphere.
- The post says guests argued, the bride’s mother cried, and the newlyweds left the reception early as the event’s mood failed to recover.
- People and the New York Post recapped the Reddit account and reader reactions, noting no on-the-record comments from the DJ, the couple, or the venue as debate grew over professionalism versus mistreatment.
