Would you attend?
By now, we all know that two of Prince Harry’s exes attended the royal wedding, and while eyebrows were raised, they conducted themselves very well.
But with that, it has brought on discussions about whether it’s ever right to go to a former flame’s big day. Would it be rude to turn down an invite? It is just weird? What do you say to them? The list goes on.
Well, according to New York manners expert Myka Meier, founder of Beaumont Etiquette, you can attend an ex’s wedding, but there are certain rules you must follow.
Talking to The Post, Myka said: “Under no circumstances, should you upstage the happy couple by drawing attention to yourself.
“Fade into the background, be respectful and be aware of your facial expressions.”
However, she also explains that if you have ill-feelings towards either the bride or groom; or if you might say something you’re not supposed to after a couple glasses of vino, then you should not attend the event at all.
“If you feel spiteful or jealous in any way — or think you might say something untoward after a few drinks — you can always turn down the invitation.”
Myka also notes that crying is a major no-no as it could be picked up wrong by other guests.
“Even if they’re happy tears, they could be construed the wrong way.”
Got that? Good. But… would you still attend an ex’s wedding?
