Bride's Shocking Wedding Menu Leaves Guests Speechless: What's the 'Insane' Detail They Can't Believe?
- Replies 4
While weddings are considered by many as a once-in-a-lifetime event, it's completely normal for the bride and groom to take charge and decide how they'd like to celebrate their special day. But just how far would a 'health-focused' bride go—especially at a wedding feast?
Sam Cutler, an American bride who identifies as a gluten and dairy-free health advocate, sparked outrage and disbelief after posting a now-viral video documenting her wedding day menu. What raised eyebrows? It was the extreme health-conscious theme, with green smoothies, raw veggies, sugar-free cake, and—wait for it—anti-bloat pills.
'Here is what I ate on my wedding day as a gluten and dairy-free, health-focused bride,' Sam introduced in her video. She dived straight into the details, walking her 4.3 million-strong viewers through her extensive food selection.
Sam began her day with a green protein smoothie and a second one for a mid-morning top-up, followed by her maid of honour feeding her grain salad. Then, she enjoyed a 'huge' raw veggie platter with her bridesmaids in the bridal suite, offering wholesome snack options.
Now, online viewers can handle the clean, albeit unorthodox, choices meant to energise the bride. But the question lingering in their minds—and ours—intensifies: will they serve this at the wedding too?
Unfortunately for guests craving richer, more indulgent foods (cue the steak), Sam did not pull back on her health-conscious ways. With a menu consisting of oysters, plantain avocado bites, chopped salad, gluten-free bread, grilled salmon with veggies, as well as a sugar and dairy-free chocolate cake and allergen-free, low-sugar dessert table, the couple stayed true to their ultra-healthy vision.
But there's more to this story, dear members, that made everyone genuinely gasp: anti-bloat pills placed on all tables. Yes, you read that right—but were these even necessary after a light salad or a tray of veggies?
As expected, the internet responded with mixed emotions, and our SDC community has to acknowledge a certain level of admiration for Sam's commitment to her cause. Some comments on the viral post read:
'I'd be so hungry at this wedding. Definitely leave early and hit up Macca's Drive Thru on the way home,' one Aussie viewer remarked.
Others took particular issue with the anti-bloat pills, exclaiming, 'I would have lost it when they gave me anti-bloat pills.'
However, not everyone viewed Sam's decision negatively, with a handful jumping to her defence.
'Wow, people are so judgmental. You do you, babe, congratulations!' said one supportive viewer.
Another commented, 'As someone who has to be gluten and dairy-free, this made me so happy to see you confidently make this work. I know it took so much planning ahead.'
Food is more than a source of nourishment at weddings; it is a representation of the couple’s personal tastes and preferences as they reflect their culture and common experiences. Whether it’s a traditional buffet, an elaborate sit-down dinner, or an intimate family meal, couples can choose the food that best expresses their story.
Well, our members, we invite you to weigh in on this debate and share your thoughts with the Senior Discount Club community. Should wedding feasts remain indulgent or is there merit to Sam's unique approach, even if it left some guests on the verge of heading to the local drive-through?
Let’s remember that every couple has the right to decide their own wedding menu, be it health-obsessed or indulgent, as long as everyone is safe and able to enjoy the event.
We at SDC hope that love, happiness, and unity were still the shining stars on this couple's day despite the undeniable hunger pangs some guests may have experienced. We wish newlyweds Sam and her husband a lifetime of love, health, and all the green smoothies they desire—from the comfort of their homes.
