She wrote over the clip: "That time I performed a dance on my wedding day knowing my religious family would look down on it.'" In the clip, the brunette bride danced to Beyonce's End of Time while wearing an all-white tracksuit and a black shirt underneath. Her husband, who was mostly out of the shot, could be seen sitting still watching her moves. While she is dancing, children run past the stage and some wedding guests can be seen completely ignoring her. The awkward dance saw her two-step left to right, pretending to march and whipping her hair around. "Debated doing this for so long that by the time I convinced myself to do it, I only had less than two months to learn the choreography," she captioned the post. "DO WHAT YOU WANT ON YOUR WEDDING DAY LADIES. My man loved it. "To further explain, I purposefully wore this covered up outfit and played down the dance moves out of respect for said religious family." But her 'religious family' at the wedding seemingly didn't have much to say about her moves - some members even recorded her and looked excited. I wasn't going to spend thousands on a wedding dress so got an Oh Polly one for £75 - no one would know it wasn't pricey Instead, it was the people in the comments of her TikTok that were quicker to judge the dance. The clip has since gone viral on her TikTok account @alexojennings with over 14 million views and people didn't hold back with their opinion. One person wrote: "He's googling annulment facts as soon as this clip ends." Another commented: "In broad daylight is diabolical." Average cost of a wedding in 2025 Recent research by Hodge reveals the dream of getting married can come with a hefty price tag, reaching more than £20,000. Food - £6,000 Honeymoon - £4,329 Wedding outfits - £3,500 Entertainment - £2,000 Engagement ring - £1,948 Flowers - £1,110 Wedding ring - £1,000 Wedding transport - £700 Total = £20,587 "That man deserves the world for not laughing," penned a third. Meanwhile a fourth said: "Painful to watch. Hope you had fun though." "The best part is that you didn't have to do this at all,' claimed a fifth Someone else added: "The fact her friends let her go ahead with this tells me she needs better friends." Despite the nasty comments, the bride stuck to her guns over the controversial dance. "Y'all roasting me is killing me, she commented. "The mean comments are only telling me what I already know - you're not gonna hurt my feelings. It's TIKTOK doing its "thang." It's all love." In fact, she was so unbothered by the hate that she posted a second clip of the dance as a response. In this follow-up video, she continued the solo dance to Beyoncé's Upgrade U. Alexis had similar right-to-left movements, something she chalks up to having to 'improvise' due to forgetting the moves.

My sister wants to wear a Bridgerton-style dress to my wedding – I think it's ‘too white', others say I'm overreacting
'Is she trying to look like she lives in 1800's London?' AISLE SAY My sister wants to wear a Bridgerton-style dress to my wedding – I think it's 'too white', others say I'm overreacting YOUR wedding day is meant to be one of the biggest and happiest days of your life. But things were left up in the air for one bride-to-be after her sister shared the dress she planned on wearing to the celebration. Advertisement 2 The bridesmaid dress looked too white for the bride's liking Credit: Reddit 2 The Bride was concerned by the gown's colour, but Reddit users had other worries Credit: Getty - Contributor Posting on Reddit, the bride explained that she had asked the female members of her family to wear blue, so they could collectively be her 'something blue'. But when her 19-year-old sister wanted to wear a pastel blue dress she wasn't sure what to make of it. "Am I being a bridezilla for thinking this is too bridal/not on the mark?" She asked fellow Reddit users after showing a picture of the garment. Although the dress was pale blue, it could easily look white under certain light. Advertisement Not only that, but the dress featured a white strip down the front, which many thought pushed the boundaries. "I thought this was a wedding dress at first," one person commented on the post. A second agreed: "It looks more white than blue. I would suggest a better colour, material, and style. The material looks heavy too." "That's nuts, it's obviously bridal, put your foot down," a third wrote. Advertisement Another comment read: "Is she a Bridgerton? Yeah, I can see why you don't like it is is very pale." And someone replied with a reference to the hit Netflix show: "Scrolled way too far for this haha. Immediately when I saw it, in my head I heard 'DAPHEEEEE, YOU MUST MAKE HASTE!' Meanwhile, others were more concerned by the style of the dress than the colour, as some slammed the dress as "matronly." Laura Nolan says 'yes to the Dress' One joked: "Is she trying to look like she lives in 1800's London?" "It looks like a set piece from Downton Abbey or Bridgerton," a second slammed. Advertisement "Tell her she can wear that dress on the prairie when she helps John-Boy with the potato crop," someone else chimed in. But others thought the dress was even worse than that. "I think it looks like a panty liner, with the absorbent strip down the centre. What an unfortunate dress," one said. Wedding Guest Outfit Etiquette If you're struggling to decided on a dress to see you through wedding season, here's a few rules on what not to wear so you don't get in trouble. Folklore says that wearing red at a wedding means you slept with the groom. Casual attire like jeans and flip flops should always be avoided. Any colour that could be picked up as white or cream - even if it's not. Most would agree that your cleavage needs to be covered. Wearing white is a massive no-no if you're not the bride. And another thought it looked more like toilet paper as they commented: "I'm sorry but that's the ugliest dress I've ever seen. It looks like crumpled up toilet paper. Tell her no." Advertisement After the responses, the bride decided to confront her sister over the dress, and luckily she agreed to ditch it. "I told her it would likely photograph super light during the day and offered to pay for another dress she would like to wear," she explained. The bride was praised for putting her foot down by many of the Reddit users. One said: "Good for you, it's your day and you shouldn't have to compromise." Advertisement "There are so many better dresses, help her pick something," another suggested.

Wedding cake slammed as ‘tacky' and ‘gross' as people predict the couple ‘will be divorced in two years'
AISLE SAY Wedding cake slammed as 'tacky' and 'gross' as people predict the couple 'will be divorced in two years' PEOPLE say your wedding is one of the most important and happiest of days of your life. But one couple might have started off on the wrong foot, at least that's what people think - and it's all because of their wedding cake. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 The controversial cake left people divided online Credit: Reddit 2 People predicted the couple would end up divorced in just two years Credit: Getty This comes after their cake was shared on Reddit - and the design left people scratching their heads. "My friend is a wedding photographer. Everyone thinks this is cute. I think it's gross," the caption alongside the snap of the cake read. The cake didn't feature the classic bride and groom topper, but instead of standing side by side, the bride is dragging the groom away from his video games and snacks in her gown. "Imagine spending 60k on a wedding and your groom would rather be playing video games," the Reddit user added. It turns out they weren't the only ones who thought the cake was worse than tongue-in-cheek. One commented: "All those 'ball and chain' references are so incredibly tacky and hurtful. If you feel like your life gets worse by getting married, don't do it." And a second admitted they knew someone who took things to the next level, they explained: "They had a whole photoshoot with this theme. "Most memorable were a photo where she is pulling him by the shirt as he tries to get away, and another of him clocking her on the chin while she smiles. "Kept my mouth shut but in my mind I was thinking what the actual f**k." And another chimed in: "My wife's family had this on their cake. Wedding song was Before He Cheats, food was a potluck, groom punched a guest and was taken by police. 10/10." Georgia Steel slammed for wearing 'white' lace dress to Dani Dyer's wedding - with many stunned by her 'risky' frock Meanwhile, others slammed the groom: "This is pretty damning for the dude." "Imagine being proud of being a loser to the point that you want your f**king wedding theme to revolve around being a manchild who doesn't want to get married," they added. And someone else bluntly wrote: "This tells me everything I need to know. They'll be divorced in two years, max." But the couple aren't the only ones who were slammed for their controversial wedding cake. Luckily, Annie Bennett, founder of Leading Lady Cakes, shared some of her top tips for choosing a cake for your big day. She told Hello the price of the cake really depends on the size you're looking for, but remember to consider your budget, you don't want to get the most expensive cake and not have enough money for anything else. 'There's no set price list, and each baker will price their work according to their own set-up. Some bakers charge per person, but most will base prices on the size of the cake, the detail of decorations required and where the cake is to be delivered,' said Annie. She added that it's usually the decoration that will increase costs, and that if you want a seven tier cake you should be prepared to fork out four figures. You don't want a cake so small that you can't give everyone a slice, nor do you want a huge cake that you are still going to have slices of in your fridge months later. The important thing is to cater to how many people you have invited - if you have 100 guests you will want enough for everyone to have a slice, including yourself. And if you still have some left over, Annie has one tip for minimising food waste, 'ask the caterers to wrap any leftover cake, and then take it home and freeze it," she said, "you can then have memories of your wedding for up to three months after it!" Don't do this if the cake has already been frozen and defrosted though.
