'Ridiculous' as newlyweds update their wedding on Facebook mid ceremony

A photo of newlyweds standing at the front of their own wedding ceremony starring at their phones has left people wanting to 'give up on society'.

The image showing a couple updating their Facebook relationship status to 'married' just seconds after saying I do received backlash after being posted to an online wedding shaming group.

It was shared with the caption: 

Instead of doing a unity candle or sand ceremony, Danielle and James changed their Facebook statuses to married.

Commenters were quick to blast the pair for the 'tacky as hell' stunt, with one saying: 

This isn't cute or quirky. It's ridiculous.

Another read: 

If that's indicative of how their marriage is going to be, I expect they'll be updating their statues real soon.

A third said: 

This is what the world has come to?! I'm giving up on society.

Some couples don't even make it as far as the day itself before being accused of being tacky as they look for unique ways to make their big day stand out from the crowd.

One bride to be had a similar experience after sharing a photo of her RSVP card - which featured plenty of explicit language and even referred to guests as 'dumb a**es'.

Where guests were asked if they would be attending, they were asked to choose between 'abso f***ing lutely' or 'not a god damn chance'.
