Furry Wedding Invitation

[suze1080]

DP and I have been invited to a Furry wedding. For those of you that don't know, furries like to dress as anthropomorphized animal characters; I think the bride is an ocelot or something. According to the invite, dressing in costume is 'preferred' (not sure if the pun was intended). AIBU to be reluctant to spend a day surrounded by a group of fur-suited wedding guests? Particularly as neither DP or I have any interest in dressing up ourselves.

I'm happy to go and pretend to be you!

Oh gosh! If I was close to them I would but otherwise I’d decline x

I wouldn't go if I wasn't into it buy it might actually be good. You could wear a black jumpsuit and tail and cat mask (so you would only have to put them on once you get there)

Interesting first ever post.

Buy some cat ears.

I think it sounds like great fun!

Oh god, a friend of a friend is a furry and had a furry wedding. Each to their own as long as they aren’t hurting anyone, but I find it deeply weird myself.

I would be sending a card and sadly having prior plans for the day myself!

Amazing

Seriously? A furry wedding. I can't imagine anything worse.

Beware Whiskas for the wedding breakfast.

Furries terrify me. I think I'd throw myself down the stairs before to have a good excuse not to go before I'd attend a furry wedding.

Is this a thing?

Sounds very ... sweaty.

I wouldn't go to a fetish wedding.

Just goggled it ànd thought cant be real. It is is seems. Ive seen everything now. Saying that my two year old love this. Photo from goggle search.

Hmmmm.....

I've been to a star wars wedding (it was a costumed one) where the couple were dressed as Jedis. It takes all sorts, not for me to judge.

If you're not comfortable with it, can you decline? If you can't decline (i.e. close family member) then I'd just turn up in regular clothes since costume doesn't seem mandatory.

In the summer?

You really cannot pass up this invitation, it sounds fantastic. How do they all plan to eat their wedding lunch with their costumes on? They are definitely all going to end up very sweaty too

Yes I would definitely be too busy to attend that day

A colleague recently went to a funeral. The deceased wanted everyone to dress up. Colleague went as a pirate. Apparently the funeral was “hillarious”... colleague is a huge fantasist and we are yet to assert sin if this is even true

Blimey. Every day is a school day. I want to go, I’d go for you! I’d roll with it and have fun- it’s the kind of stuff you can dine out on for years to come!

Please go and take photos!

Maybe they're having you on. Yyou roll up as an armadillo or something, and everyone else is in morning suits.
