A wedding invite of a daughter of the Sharma family and the son of a person named Gopal is going viral on the internet for taking a dig at the usual scenes one comes across at a wedding. The invitation which didn't straightly disclose details about the bride and groom kept everything listed in a quirky manner. From the family details to information about the venue, all texts mentioned in the invite stood out from a regular version.
This viral invitation took note of the not-so-good things people speak or come across at weddings and sarcastically addressed them. To hint you about what this invite was all about, let us reveal to you how it began.
The initial words of it read, "Aapki presence ki hamari shaadi mein bahut zaroorat hai kyuki aap na aaye toh hamari shaadi mein khaane ki burai kaun karega? (Your presence is very much needed in our wedding because if you do not come then who will say bad things about the food in our wedding)".

The invitation addressed relatives in a very "rude" manner, which didn't go well with netizens. They found that the copy disrespected the act of welcoming dear ones to the special celebration and mocked it completely. Instead of sharing the invite as a welcoming and heartfelt gesture, it seemed to be "red flag" with hurtful greetings and communication pieces.
"Irritating bachche..."
The wedding invitation addressed kids as "Irritating bachche" and described them further as those who step on stage to "spoil photos". "Please control your kids. The expensive stage isn't their playground", it added.
Mentioned about wedding food
It is often said that people crave for wedding feast, and if you are one of those who enjoys the food at weddings, you might end up taking this invite too personally.
In an unimpressive tone, the words written on the pages of the invite mentioned the cost of a food plate suggesting guests might have to pay for the food they consume. "Don't leave without eating food, but only once - it's priced at Rs2,000/plate".
Reception "drama"
It was learned that this wedding was followed by a reception. Announcing about the reception, the message on the card said, "Shaadi ka hangover abhi khatam nahi hua hai RECEPTION ka drama dekhne zaroor aaye (The wedding hangover is not over yet. Do come to see the drama of the reception)".
Netizens reacts
While this wedding invitation has gone viral and received both backlash and love, it is unclear whether it referred to a real life wedding or was only drafted to create buzz on social media.
"Wonderful the bestest wedding card", said an Instagram user named Somya Virmani. "Superbbbbbbb ... absolutely right... Honest card", added Neyha Shandilya. "That's so funny", commented Hamza Khan.
Further reactions to post condemned the tone of wedding invitation. A person named Deepu wrote, "It might sounds funny but, we have to admit we are losing our culture way faster than anything."
"The invitation to anything was supposed to very pure and open hearted and with lot more respect . So that whosoever is invited can come and give blessing with their open heart . But today things are losing their values", he added.
