  • A photographer's assistant was involved in an affair with the groom.
  • Upon the bride finding out, she emailed the photographer demanding a refund.
  • The photographer has refused as she has already edited and sent the photos to the bride.


We've all seen the movie starring Jennifer Lopez as a wedding planner who ends up falling in love with the groom. That type of thing is commonplace in today's society, but back when the movie came out, it was a shocker.

Brides now have more than the gorgeous planner to worry about; there are also single bridesmaids and naughty distant cousins to that the groom could potentially stray with. Then there's the photograpy team. A bride has demanded a refund after her wedding photographer's assistant had an affair with the groom.

Taking to Reddit, a wedding photographer has vented about a bride demanding a refund. First, she explained that she wasn't the one who had an affair with the groom. "Earlier this summer, I shot a wedding. My typical second shooter couldn't make it, so I found someone else online who I felt did good work." She continued to add that everything went well as the pictures were taken and delivered to her client. "Anyways, she and I did the wedding, and everything seemed business as usual... and all was good."

Soon after, the wedding photographer received a shocking email from the bride. "She wanted a refund because the lady I had hired as a second shooter for the day ended up sleeping with her husband at some point after the wedding, and she included photos from his phone to prove it." The photographer says she has yet to respond to the bride, and she has asked for the help of Reddit users on how to go about this situation. "She hired me for a job, and the job was completed, and the product was delivered, but I also feel like this would be as if I were a professional dog walker who walked a client's dog, then came back and shot it later."

Users got on the comment section to share their opinion, with one saying, "This sounds harsh, but her husband was going to cheat on her regardless of who your second shooter was. It's not your fault that she married him." Another added, "This happened after the wedding, correct? If so, it has nothing to do with you or the service your business provided.".
