From throwing a strop because they're not allowed to bring a plus one to allowing their children to run riot during the ceremony, not all guests make things easy for the bride.

However, one bride-to-be has received the ultimate snub as her relatives refuse to attend her big day full stop because of her insistence on serving vegan food.

The row was revealed on Mumsnet by Kathycraig79 who asked fellow posters if it was unreasonable for her to be annoyed with her daughter for digging her heels in when so many people are staying away because of the food.

A bride's relatives are refusing to attend her wedding because of her insistence on serving vegan food

'She is adamant that the wedding must be vegan,' Kathy explained. 'This is fine with me, I support her wish and this is for her to decide.

'We sent the invitations and I thought it would be a good idea to include the information about vegan catering on the invitations.

'We have had many RSVPs basically saying they will not be coming if the food is vegan. I have to say this was unexpected, many of the family are quite traditional, meat-and-two-veg, but I did not expect this to be such a problem.'

Kathy said her daughter isn't willing to budge but that she doesn't see the problem with catering for everyone's tastes.

The row was revealed on Mumsnet by Kathycraig79 who asked fellow posters if it was unreasonable for her to be annoyed with her daughter for digging her heels in

'I'm really getting frustrated,' she admitted. 'Yesterday my daughter said she was thinking of cancelling the whole thing and thinks the guests are being unreasonable. Maybe I should not have put this information on the invitations?'

However, Kathy's daughter received an outpouring of support from posters who felt that her guests were completely out of line.

'Your guests are being unreasonable,' Nanunanu replied. 'They know what veganism is right?

Mumsnet users were incredulous that guests would not be able to last for just one day without eating meat

'They've not mixed it up with something else? Who can't go one afternoon without eating animal based products?

'Why did you feel the need to put it on invites though?'

RJnomore1 echoed her sentiments, saying: 'How rude of them. Your poor daughter. I think you did the right thing, imagine they came and ruined the day complaining.'

Everdene was incredulous that people had cancelled because they wouldn't be served. meat.

'They are the problem, not your daughter. If they can't make it through one meal in honour of someone's wedding day, that's quite sad really,' she commented.

Kath said she was trying to support her daughter but relatives were peeved that she's not taking their preferences into account when they have to accommodate her vegan diet at family gatherings

'Your daughter's day, her choice. I've eaten so much dry chicken etc at weddings over the years - not what I'd choose but it's the wedding party's choice so everyone should go along with it, in my opinion.'

BigChocFrenzy pointed out that being vegan is more than just having a preference for a plant-based diet.

'I'd enjoy a vegan meal, indeed an alcohol-free vegan meal,' she said.

'I'd no more expect a vegan to compromise their principles than to demand a Muslim or Quaker host serve alcohol.

A few dissenting voices agreed that being served vegan food at a wedding would put them off going

'Dietary preferences are NOT comparable to ethical principles

'Most people wouldn't break principles they hold truly important, just to satisfy someone's preferences.'

Curren made the same point, saying: 'Lots of vegans ate vegans for ethical issues and so would have conflict, feeding and paying for non vegan food,' she said.

And she told Kathy she was being unreasonable for being annoyed with her daughter, adding: 'I can't believe some family can't eat vegan for a day.

Commenters pointed out that being vegan is more than just a dietary preference, it's an ethical choice that people shouldn't be expected to compromise on

'I would never be vegetarian or vegan. But I can go a day without out and often do opt for what would be vegetarian or vegan.'

Kathy replied explaining that the relatives felt her daughter should make the same effort to cater to their tastes as they do for her.

'I am trying to be supportive, but I don't really understand why my daughter can't allow a menu choice to try and please everyone,' she said.

'The people who have refused told me that they are fed up having to make concessions for my daughter and provide vegan food at any parties or events, not that they have thrown many, and then not have their own tastes catered for when the roles are reversed.'

Some people felt that the bride should be more accommodating and cater for her guests, especially as many of them will have paid a lot of money to travel to the wedding

She found a supportive figure in MrsRaegan who agreed that her daughter should provide a choice for guests.

COUPLE SHOCK GUEST WITH EMAIL TO SAY £100 GIFT WASN'T ENOUGH Recently, another Mumsnet user revealed how she was left gobsmacked when an ex colleague emailed her to say her wedding gift wasn't generous enough. The anonymous poster known as Puzzledandp***sedoff and believed to be from the UK, asked fellow users for advice and found herself inundated with more than a thousand responses in three days, with many urging her to cancel her £100 cheque altogether. According to the poster, the email read: 'We were surprised that your contribution didn't seem to match the warmth of your good wishes on our big day. 'In view of your own position, if you wanted to send any adjustment it would be thankfully received.' 'For someone who's not easily shocked I confess I'm utterly gobsmacked by this,' she confessed, explaining that her position' probably referred to a recent inheritance she had received.

'Most people provide a vegetarian option if required. Why can't your daughter do the same?' she asked.

'It may not the be the meal, but more having others principles forced on them that's annoying guests.'

Another voice that went against the majority was DaveCamoron who admitted her heart would sink if she found out she was going to a vegan wedding.

'Sorry but if I was a guest I'd be dreading the meal,' she said. 'I'd come to be polite but the meal would put a slight dampener on the occasion.'

WheresLarry stuck her head above the parapet and admitted she wouldn't be too keen to go along either.

'I'm going to get destroyed for saying this but it would put me off attending,' she said.

'I am very fussy when it comes to food. Probably an unhealthy diet but I wouldn't be able to eat a veg only meal. That's my issue but then it would be my choice to attend or not.

'Also weddings can last from 12 to midnight (or all the ones I have been to do), I wouldn't be able to go a whole day without eating a proper meal that fills me up, that along with drinking would be a messy day.

'I get what people are saying and people can think it's pathetic for another adult to not put up with vegan menu for one day, but I know I would struggle because my food options are limited -admittedly by myself.'

GETTINGLIKEMYMOTHER pointed out that people who have spent a lot of money to attend the wedding might feel cheated if they're not served a meal that they enjoy.

'Playing Devil's Advocate here, but I suppose people who are maybe going to have to come a long way, and shell out quite a lot one way and another might feel that if they're not even going to get a meal they would really enjoy out of it, they don't feel like bothering.

'I can't help feeling that a bride who really cares about her guests enjoying their day, would want to provide the sort of food they would enjoy.
