Look, we know it’s 2019. We can appreciate wanting to reduce your impact on the earth in every way possible, from being environmentally friendly by recycling, using a keep cup and eating less or no animal products. But if you are vegan, would you go so far as to call\u00a0non-vegan people murderers?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Is it too far, as a vegan to end up not inviting your own mother to your wedding because she’s not a vegan?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It’s one thing to have a fully vegan menu<\/a> and not serve meat, dairy, honey etc. Or to have an eco-friendly wedding<\/a>. Or even to ask guests to not bring their kids or to wear a certain colour. But to not invite your own family members because of very personal choices they make about what they choose to eat or the products they choose to use? I think we’re crossing a line now.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A certain anonymous bride has come under fire for doing exactly this, calling her omnivore guests “murderers”:<\/p>\n \u201c\u2026We don\u2019t want to host murderers at our wedding which is supposed to be one of the happiest days of our lives,\u201d she wrote on a Vegan Facebook group, which was then republished to Reddit and ridiculed.<\/p>\n
