Well, this is one way to save coins! A New York couple is going viral after revealing that they saved thousands of dollars by charging their wedding guests a fee to attend. Nova and Reemo Styles had their guests cough up $333 each to join them at their love celebration, per ABC 7.

And I said, ‘People choose to go to Beyoncé concerts because they know that they’re gonna have an experience. Let’s put the stress on the guests, and let’s sell tickets for a wedding,” she said.

Ultimately, 60 of the 150 invited guests paid and came, per The Daily Mail. However, others clapped back about the $333 fee, and an estimated 80% of their guests bowed out. Nova recalled an invitee asking them, “Who do you guys think you are? Jay-Z and Beyoncé?” The bride, Nova, recently told ABC 7 that they considered their wedding a premium event and decided guests should pay the price.

Almost $20K worth of reception.

Or a very decent down payment on a house…

Yeah, same goes for "Destination Weddings" where you're expected to cough up a couple grand.

The friend who got my wife and I together had such a wedding. We didn't go. It was fairly short notice and I was on a big work project and couldn't just leave for a week.

TBH, those two don’t look bright enough to pull this off as a publicity stunt......grifters is what I see....and far more believable IMO.

I bet neither one of them would pay $333 to attend one of their friends weddings!

They are going to clean up when they have children and grandparents want to visit.

If they had understood the concept of price and demand, they could have saved the cost of wedding invitations and stamps.

They didn’t “save” anything: they paid expenses, and they generated revenue.

Paying the fee was their guests’ decision. Personally, I would have sent a card and stayed home.

That’s a good excuse to get out of having to go to a wedding.
