People Are Shockingly Rallying Behind This Woman Who Is Choosing A Taylor Swift Concert Over Her Best Friend’s Wedding

Usually, I’m in the camp that believes you should do everything within your power to celebrate your loved one’s milestones. But, I — and thousands of others — am a little conflicted after reading a post by redditor Old_Explanation6923, who said they’d be missing their bestie’s wedding for a Taylor Swift concert.

I know it sounds bad, but before you judge, here’s the story: “The issue is that on July 13, my fiancé and I booked tickets for the Eras Tour in Milan almost one year in advance or else they’d sell out. We also had to book hotels, flights, etc. because we’re staying there for four days,” Old said.

“My best friend knew that I’d booked tickets on that date. She hadn’t booked her wedding yet.”

“She got engaged in November and booked her wedding date last month. She had told everyone she’d get married during the summer, but she never said the exact date until now, after many people kept asking her so they could know their plans. I booked the tickets this past summer when the tour dates were announced.”

“When she told me the date, I told her she can’t be serious. She was like, ‘Why?’ I reminded her I had the concert and the trip on those dates. And she told me, ‘Ok? Then cancel it, obviously?’ I told her, ‘Sorry, I can’t.'”

“I can’t cancel the hotel, plane, and concert tickets. I’ll have to pay a high fee to do so, and I don’t think I can even cancel the concert tickets.”

“I reminded her it was something I’d planned a year in advance, and she knew. She straight up told me that yes, she knew, but she didn’t care because, as a friend, she’d expect me to do the right thing and drop everything for her wedding. I told her I’m not canceling my plans for something you knew a year in advance I’d do.”

“She accused me of basically putting a trip and a concert over her wedding. She won’t speak to me now unless I send her proof that I’m canceling everything to attend her wedding.”
