Speaker 1: about eight ten days ago and it has caused.
Speaker 2: An international drama.
Speaker 1: So Ben, my fiancee, lives over in well, he lives
Speaker 1: in Romania now, but he's Swiss, so all of his
Speaker 1: side of the family are from Europe or from the UK,
Speaker 1: and on my side of the family, we're basically all Australian,
Speaker 1: so the wedding is split down the middle with internationals
Speaker 1: and Aussie's. So Ben gets this message from someone that
Speaker 1: says like one of his invites that just says dress
Speaker 1: code question mark fair and he wrote back.
Speaker 2: Ben wrote back, oh, yeah, sorry, Britt set the dress code.
Speaker 1: That was it. Day or two later, I gets another
Speaker 1: message basically saying hey, hey, you got the dress code
Speaker 1: question mark.
Speaker 2: And it's like, yeah, sorry, Britt set the dress code.
Speaker 3: Like that's pretty normal, and we've seen the invitations were
Speaker 3: invited and the dress code is normal.

Speaker 1: things are escalating. He gets a message from a really
Speaker 1: good friend of his, a girl, and she writes, Hey,
Speaker 1: we need to talk about the dress code. Ben's like
Speaker 1: throwing his arms up. He's like, why is everyone so
Speaker 1: upping arms about the dress code? And he's like, yeah,
