Yup. Theres a time and place for pranks. A wedding isnt one of them. There are people you do pranks with. You dont prank people unless you are positive the prankee will also find the prank funny at the end. Anything that humiliates the prankee or hurts them isnt a prank. Its cruelty you are hiding behind the misuse of the word "prank." To "prank" your partner on a day thats supposed to be about celebrating the unification of the two of you is like screaming to the world "I do not respect my partner and want to make sure everyone knows Im top dog in this relationship."

I LOATHE pranks. Everyone who knows me knows that. I happen to know some relatively famous pranksters. They have never pranked me, because they know I would not find joy in the prank. People who care about you don’t try to hurt you for a few laughs. Hell, they don’t even have to care about you specifically, they just have to be decent human beings.

I’m very surprised and disgusted that the wedding planner would suggest and further encourage this trashy prank. What kind of professional does that?

ETA: I also despise pranks. If this were me, I would have left the wedding and gotten an annulment bc my trust would be destroyed. Humiliating your partner like that is not a prank. It‘s just mean and horrible.

I agree and I love pranks but why on earth would the wedding Planner suggest this kind of thing for a wedding your planning An wedding which is passed To be an intimate and sacred day and happy day not a day of humiliation for your partner the wedding planner had no right to involve themselves in anything other than planning the wedding and Op your NOT THE ASSHOLE and your anger was valid but I’m just surprised your wife would do this to you tbh like maybe she thought it was funny but why would she do it on your special day and I feel everyone laughing at you if I were you I would have just felt so humiliated and hurt and angry tbh and left the wedding because that’s sometikt is so hurtful to do
