A woman surprised her boyfriend with a wedding after growing tired of waiting for him to propose. Wanting to make it special, and ensure he showed up, she decided to plan their big day at his local golf course. However, his reaction to her surprise nuptials didn't go down well - leaving her sobbing in her wedding dress.

Taking to Reddit, a wedding decorator said: "Two years ago we did the decor for a really pretty ceremony, and halfway through the day we found out it was a "surprise wedding". Basically, they were not engaged, but the bride planned the whole thing and the groom showed up at the golf course thinking he was just playing a regular round of golf. Nope. He walked into his own wedding, saw her standing at the altar, and peaced the f*** out. As he should have.

Shocked by the woman's "crazy" idea, users jumped on the post to share their thoughts and questioned how nobody tried to stop her. One user said: "How did no one manage to talk her out of that?" Another user added: "That must be some delusion that it would be a romantic thing to do, while in reality absolutely no one, not even herself, would like to be in that situation.

A third user said: "You're doing it wrong if you've never discussed the possibility with your partner before popping the question. If you legit don't know she will say yes, then don't do it and wait for a point when you do know this. It should be a formal cementing of what you already know and should only be a romantic surprise - not a complete one."

One more user added: "She was probably surrounded by friends telling her it was a good idea. Then when it failed, they badmouthed her behind her back. Because, you know, women hate women". Another user said: "Are you kidding me, that sounds like one of the greatest things to witness, especially if the people really didn't like her too much."
