Sometimes in life you don't always get what you want, and when something happens that alter your plans you find an alternative, not ask for others to bail you out.

What you do in a situation like this is you keep a low profile.

The LAST THING you do is draw more attention to you or the situation.

Real smart, she put herself and her fiancé in danger because she had to have a certain type of wedding and honeymoon.

She's brilliant.

And what you want is for her to not get the honeymoon she wants. Get over your silly needs to have people act the way you see fit.

I realize she is not responsible for the actions of her brother but this Go Fund Me page for her wedding brings tackiness to a new all time low.

IMO, that's about as low as one can get.

A couple of things. 1) You can have empathy for other people, without being in their situation.

2) You have no clue who on this board may have had a loved one murdered, so very presumptuous as well as thoughtless to make a statement like that.

So she should be punished and not get a nice wedding day and honeymoon because her brother killed 9 people? That's a very insensitive way to look at her and her life.

She deserves happiness. Her fiance deserves happiness. Actually, they should definitely not let this bog them down and ruin their lives for any period of time longer than the normal grieving period/period of shock when something like this happens.

People create go fund me pages for ridiculous reasons all the time (not saying this is ridiculous, I'm following the logic of some people on here who think that it is). Do you all get outraged over every single one? No. At least, I'd hope not. If yes, well simply put, you need lives. You see it, say, wow I disagree with that, I won't be donating, and move on. If people support her, they will help her out. If not, they won't. I don't see what the big controversy and issue is. She's free to do what she wants whether you think it's morally reprehensible or not. She's not in an easy situation here. I mean, her wedding was coming up. It was soon. And her bother ruined it, and it was not her fault.

What if she saved up for that wedding, had already paid everyone involved or needed to in the event of a sudden cancelation, and does not have anything left to plan a whole new wedding, even a more low key and smaller one? Do you know how much money she has? Do you know their financial situation? Do you know how long this was planned for and how much work and effort was put into it? Perhaps you should not judge so easily.
