Outer limits TACKY 150k wedding for UK 16 year old girl! Ugliest dress EVER!
October 30, 2008I can’t believe we have another tacky chav-tastick child bride on our hands! And get this, she lives in a trailer!! And she dropped out of school at nine. Just when I think I’ve seen the tackiest thing in the whole world, BAM!! This wedding is UNREAL. Love the Brits!
This look can be yours, for a mere $30,000! Seriously.
Nice balloon arches.
Clown makeup!
Groom’s mother looks elated.
The proud parents of the bride. Quite a demure mother of the bride outfit, wouldn’t you say? Can’t let the bride steal all the slutty!
LOVELY bridesmaid dresses!
Let’s not leave out the guests of this classy get together! Child prostitutes, like champagne, add a certain elegance to any event, wouldn’t you say?
Article from UK Daily Mail:
What Daddy’s little girl wants Daddy’s little girl gets.
So when Missy Quinn insisted on a big white wedding with her boyfriend, her father said Yes. It didn’t matter that she was only 16 and the groom 17.
Daddy also said Yes to a £16,000 wedding dress (which looked suspiciously like a crop top and skirt) and Yes to 150 guests at the reception. Then there were the cars, the hotels, the tiara and the £500 bouquet.
the end, making Missy’s wedding dreams come true cost her father – who lives in a caravan and surfaces driveways for a living – a whopping £100,000.
But as his princess, who hasn’t been in a classroom since she was nine and wants to be a glamour model, posed for photographs, her father Simon, 35, declared it was worth every penny. ‘I’m very proud of her today,’ he said.
Missy was just happy to be the undisputed centre of attention.
Her dress, studded with Swarovski crystals, and with a 10ft wide train, was so heavy that it took ten guests to help her struggle out of the Rolls-Royce Phantom that brought her to the church.
‘It was huge. I wanted to outdo everyone else’s wedding dress,’ she said.
‘It was extremely heavy and just standing in the church was really difficult. But despite all that, I felt just like Cinderella.’
The bill was around five times the cost of the average British wedding.
Missy said: ‘It cost a fortune, but I’ve always wanted a big wedding and my dad has been saving for ages to pay for it.’ She met Thomas at Alton Towers theme park when she was 13.
They continued to date despite her traveller family leaving their caravan park in Stoke-on-Trent every summer to tour the UK while Thomas lived with his parents in Wolverhampton.
Missy said: ‘I just knew he was The One from the beginning. He’s perfect.’
Her mother Theresa, 33, who married Missy’s father at 16, said: ‘I was surprised they wanted to get married so young in this day and age. But we could see they were madly in love.’
The couple married six days after Missy turned 16 at St Mary’s Catholic Church in Congleton-Cheshire. After the ceremony-guests in feathers and crystals enjoyed champagne and an all-day buffet at the reception. Girls as young as nine showed off bikini tops, high heels and make-up.
Guest Victoria Docherty, 23, who wore a £700 hotpants and bra outfit, said: ‘This isn’t unusual – it’s just what we do at weddings. It’s all very extravagant. Everything is paid for by the bride’s daddy.’
Missy and Thomas honeymooned in Turkey before moving into their own £18,000 caravan – a wedding gift from her parents.
and what, he couldn’t spend an extra couple thou on some lipo for the little princess? nice rolls there sweetie.
money can’t buy taste
“She met Thomas at Alton Towers theme park when she was 13″
That’s young to be running the dodgems, even for a pikey.
Nope, but apparently it bought her and mommy dearest new boobs!
Bloody hell! I thought I had seen bad chavvy weddings before, but this certainly is the worst. Imagine the poor vicar’s face when they turned up.

I agree that the wedding is about the tackiest thing I’ve ever seen, but I don’t think the comment about the bride’s weight is called for. Her posture’s bad in a few of those photos – bending forward or sitting slouched – she’s not fat! Given that she sheems to be holding the bouquet over her midriff in a lot of those pictures, though, she’s either feeling a lot more selfconscious than she’s letting on or (more likely?) she wants to show off her flowers.
Incidentally, I’m from England, and what the papers don’t mention is how chilly it gets this time of year…
Ugggh, that is the tackiest thing I have ever seen (and trust me, I have seen some tacky things in my time!) I also don’t think they should be getting married so young…it’s a lifetime decision, they could maybe wait a few more years (or at least until their taste improves?)
Yucky dress, disturbing child-prostitute kids and what is with all the fake tan? Gross.
That poor CHILD in the gold monstrosity looks like one of those reborn dolls. A very angry and confused reborn doll. It seems only the youngest ones know they look like trash!
trailer trash wedding from a dumpster; w/ foodstamps as gifts, dingdongs for the cake, used and washed condoms (as gifts) for the guys as participants in the wedding, all the free porn, momma’s used nighty for the honeymoon, used thongs as gifts to the bridesmaid’s, viagra and a stripper’s pole for the guests!THAT’S WHAT YOU CALL A “HO DOWN”!!
why does it matter that she lives in a trailer or that she is 16
what they do with there money and how they want to spend it is up to them.
you all sound like ur bitter and obviously jealous
that you couldnt afford a 100k wedding.
i love the bridesmaid dresses.
and how exactly do you know all of this ???. TRAILER TRASh !!! well that trailer trash had more money to pay for her weddin than you will ever have. and you are probably just writin all of this cos you are jealous and more than likely the ugliest thing god give breath to !!!!!!
YOU ARE ALL A PACK OF JEALOUS LOSERS, LEAVE OTHERS TO LIVE THEIR LIVES AS THEY WISH, THEY ARE SPENDING THEIR OWN MONEY, NOT SPONGING OFF THE BACK OF OTHERS, AT LEAST SHE HAD THE GUTS TO MARRY AT A YOUNG AGE, REMEMBER PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN GLASS HOUSES SHOULD NOT THROW STONES!
yeh but lets face it, the reason daddy is able to afford this clown wedding is cos they prob dont pay council tax, road tax or insurance etc etc…ah the joys of being a member of the travelling community.
think before you write love!!!!
if u were b sid a traveller u mite not make it tru da nite so b carfel………..
sike
CHANTELLE – you seem to have some really insightful and beautifully constructed comments.
What a pity I can’t understand retard-speak.
SOOOO JEALOUS. I wish daddy bought me a halloween costume for a wedding dress.
I know I’m oozing jealousy right now. The event was a truly tasteful affair, spending 150k on looking that beautiful is certainly worth it, how silly of us to think otherwise. Marrying at 16 is a brave and smart as it gets!!! Ha!
i do love a tinker wedding….

At least they will never have to worry should it flood. With all that silicone, they’ll just float away.
16? Really? Is she a smoker or something?
Getting a tan in a salon or on the beach constantly can do that to your skin, one of my friends is 18 and her skin looks almost 40…she has been tanning since 10 years old. I’m 23 and people think I’m 16 or younger all the time, I wear sunscreen and have never gotten a tan, I hope to turn out like my mother 50plus and skin that looks like she’s 30!
Hi! It’s my first time visiting this site! This wedding makes me sick. The worst part is of course the little girls in the slutty dresses and whore make-up. In my opinion, brides and grooms should wear very natural and humble looking clothes: Because the day is not for them to shine, but to humble themselves to the divinity in their loved one.
I’m not a religious freak, but I do think that loved ones are divine and a wedding should definitely be to honor your loved one, not show off your slutty body and wear disgustingly expensive clothes! The second “child prostitute” with the lace top showing her belly button… That one is the most disturbing sight.
Poor little child, what is she, seven? What about a nice knee-long velvet dress and tights? That’s what seven-year olds wear to parties around here. Also, they usually look cute and innocent and not like their parents want to sell them for sex. Harsh words maybe, but it’s not right to let such a little girl dress like that!
This is a prank, right? There’s no way this business is real.
This is madness. Who thinks this is ok?
http://www.i-am-bored.com
Just two words: trailer trash.
Okay, and a few more – shame and ruin on the FOOLS that call themselves ‘parents’ for even thinking about letting their prepubescent daughter out in public so dressed, not to mention attending a wedding!!!
they stopped being “parents” when they let her drop out of school at 9 yrs old…that’s ridiculous! And the fake boobs? Any parent who buys those for their daughter before she’s 18-19 should have their parental rights taken away! It’s just wrong!

CLASSIC!!!
This is what you would expect to see in the deep south (US). 100k? Does the bride’s father also take the amphetamines he sold to pay for it? He should have told his chubby, lazy, stupid daughter to go back to school, get a job and pay for it herself. At her age, can she even work full time (as something other than a prostitute)?
TRAILER TRASH!
I have lived in the deep South all my life. And yes, some of that life was lived in a trailer. But no, this is NOT something one sees down here. AT ALL. It’s more like the ones you see in Chicago or New Jersey (I speak from having attended one of each.)
Southerners are not all fat, lazy, ill-educated, and stupid. I, myself, have been a technical writer and licensed civil engineer for 15 years, and am currently studying for a Ph.D. in engineering.
So shove that up your bloody Yankee bunghole and don’t drive through my Southland the next time you want to go to Disney World.
Oh, and I neglected to mention the fact that I AM A WOMAN.
They are “travellers”! Brits would all pick up on the low key mention of this in the British news report, but Americans won’t, so I’ll explain. All this OTT wedding stuff appears to have a cultural basis — they’re into BIG weddings. Likewise the living in a caravan. That’s normal.
Travellers are essentially itinerants of Irish origin, similar to the gypsies or Romani people, although they are not genetically related to them. See wikipedia’s entry on “Irish Traveller” (note British spelling) for more on their quaint customs and behaviour.
Since this is a blog about heinous weddings, you’ll love this account of another traveller wedding in Ireland: http://www.avalon5.com/weird-and-whacky/weird/would-you-raise-your-machetes-please-in-a-toast-to-the-bride-and-groom/
Further to the last comment, that is what the guest who spent a huge amount on a hotpants and bra outfit meant when she said, “This isn’t unusual – it’s just what we do at weddings. It’s all very extravagant. Everything is paid for by the bride’s daddy.’
By “we”, she is referring to the Travellers liking extravagant weddings. The father of the bride picks up the tab because (1) the traveller kids marry young (as here) and can’t afford big weddings, and (2) traveller culture is very patriarchal.
Given the way other English people feel about travellers, that might also explain the look on the groom’s mother’s face. (Although the groom could come from a traveller family — he is moving into a caravan, which is much more unusual in Britain than the US.) Wouldn’t be surprised if groom’s dad refused to go. It also explains what the newspaper was being careful about emphasising the cultural aspect — it wouldn’t be politically correct to diss traveller culture too much.
thank you 4 for ur commens not all of us travellers ave big ott weddings.im a english traveller and getting married meself. my wedding is gonna be wot i want and like and . i think it is wrong to call the little girls prositutes.alot of girls mainly irish girls have big wedding dresses.its what they want so why should they get nasty comments coz of it.
Look at the juggs on the mother. Wow. How this guy pulls this kind of scratch from paving driveways is beyond me. At least boy george got an invitation (see last picture).
Christ, what a bunch of common freaks!!
HIDEOUS isn’t enough to describe it!!
By far one of the best blogs I’ve ever read! I just got married 2 months ago and I am doubled over laughing. WOW…tacky isn’t even in it. It’s unreal! Keep up the great work! Bring on the TACKY!
get lost!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!us travellers dnt like what ure saying about us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Someone should have told her that she looks like a drag queen…
well some one should have told you that youre not welcome here……
Sure, anyone can have a ‘theme wedding’ in Las Vegas, but the bride and groom are usually older. And this transpired in a Catholic Church? I have never seen anything like this where I live.
If the father of the bride spent that much on the wedding, why is the mother of the bride just wearing a skirt and bra ?
Groom’s mom is not smiling. Knows more than she’s telling ? Same for the last photo, young lady in the gold and the tranny(?) in white.
Those two are awfully young to be getting married.
Oh…My…Jesus Christ of Ladder-Day Saints!! What the HELL were they thinking?! Trailer trash dumbshits…Someone PLEASE remove them from the gene pool!!
well it looks as though no one can remove YOU from this site can they?!!!!!?
Why have they let those little girls dress like “wanna-bee” weekend sluts? This is crazy. My daughter would not be dressed like that at those ages. Parents approve? WOW. 16? Man she must of got started early, geeeez.
Ha ha ha… this is what we call “harry” in Norway. But hey, this girl is getting what she wants. Did she not want to become a glam mod??
She got all of your peoples attention. This is just fab. She’s not stupid, neighter is her dad, she’ll pay him back when she gets her first check from the glam mod. company!!!
When a artist do something that’s similar, it’s called art! What is this?
The girl does NOT need a lipo! (I would know, I do personal training for a living)
thank you so much 4 under standing i know this girl a small bit and she is really nice.and you know how a travellers life works
Oh my god—-culture is really different from Norway I dare say
While the photos are amazing and bring a wry smile to anyones face I think many of the comments here are tantamount to racicism and show total ignorance of the traveller community and values.
Far from being a ’slut’ the young woman is almost 100% likely to be a virgin and to have never been in the company of the young man alone- the look is ‘all for show’. Like many cultures where the condition of young women at marriage should be virginal, getting married at an early age is socially encouraged and well supported (note her parents early and sucessful marriage). Please also note they live in a caravan that travels and not a ‘trailer’ (non UKer should really look up the difference) they also earn a very good living through tarmac (I suspect that the father does some contract work)
Oh- and interestingly I was bought some ‘inappropriately’ styled clothing for my 11 year old daughter by my Islamic relatives (cut out shoulders and low fronts). That was how I inteterpreted them but within their strict Muslim culture for a young girl the clothes were considered quite appropriate- figure that????
thank you 4 sticking up for us.and yes we are virgins when we get married.i live in a caravan all my life i wouldnt ave it eney other way.pepole dont understand how much crap we ave to take.
I’m sorry, but in the US, if your house has wheels, its a TRAILER. The utter tackiness of this wedding makes her “traveler” culture totally irrelevant. I don’t care if this girl is a virgin, or if her daddy makes a good living, this wedding is totally devoid of class or taste. How is it racist to call a 100,000 dollar UGLY wedding UGLY?! This girl spent thirty THOUSAND dollars to look like a cheap vegas showgirl, her mother looks like she’s wearing a bra for a top, and her bridesmaids look like they should be in a sideshow. This is the epitome of a chav wedding. Look that up.
I really don’t see how the outfit bought for your 11 year old is germane to your argument. Did they buy her a bikini top and a fur coat and put makeup on her? Hmmm, I’m thinking no on that one. Out of everything, I really can’t believe that you’re justifying the outfits of the children in this post. Talk all you want about “traveler culture” but dressing young girls like that is just sick and wrong. Period, no matter where you live or what culture you are from. I guess that makes me racist then!!! Hey everybody, don’t call these people trainwrecks because that will make you an intolerant racist! Oh no!
Get a sense of humor, this is obviously hilarious.
and PS, if you’re going to call people racist, please learn how to spell RACISM correctly.
mind ur own business ur pure jelous of us travellers coz we can afford to have big weddins at leaast we can get men and have ya nothin better to be doin dan tryna run us decent people down well wear wat we want do wat we want and wats more if u or anywan else on this page hu tink there great came infront of us wed kill ye all stone dead so stop actin brave over dis yoke and go wash yeeselves and UP THE SEXY TRAVELLERS
‘Traveller Girl’ – Charming young lady you sound – ‘kill ye stone dead’ – when did you start making threats in medieval speak? Or are you auditioning for the next Lord of The Rings film? Anyone would think you never went to school or something! I think I’ve yet to find a ‘traveller’ comment on here with any correct spelling – hey ho to each they’re own – enjoy the winter….sorry ye winta!
thanks but i can spell perfectly right i am fully educated it just goes to show how little you know about us so fuck off i will talk how i want
Heard they have a new shampoo out for travellers – it’s called ‘Go & Wash’
Did anyone else notice that the little girl in the white dress in the last picture on this post looks just like Boy George in his hey day?
I think that the bride and all the girls would have looked beautiful with natural make up and other kind of dress. Women don’t need a skanky dress to look hot.
well y dnt u try being a traveller 4 a day.!!!what travellers want they get.
simple as.x
That last photo is blatantly photoshoped.
Typical the big mouth yanks always got to have their say!!!
well what do ya mean?!x
For start, they probably aren’t British seeing that most pikeys aka “travellers” are actually Irish. And I’ve no doubt that the money used to pay for the wedding, the honeymoon, the tit jobs and the caravan (trailer) was gained by ill-gotten means – surfacing driveways (as described in the article), doing a half-arsed job, taking the victims money and running, not paying ANY taxes to the Government while still scrounging money off the state, etc.
I f**king hate pikeys.
well, if ya f**king hate pikeys why on earth you come on to this web site…..?!?!?.can ya answer that.and a couple more things along with that im a PIKEY and i wish the couple the best in the world.
BE AMUSED.XX
“well, if ya f**king hate pikeys why on earth you come on to this web site…..?!?!?.can ya answer that.”
I can answer that on behalf of an awful lot of people, CHANTELLE. This is a website dedicated to trashy weddings.
We come here to take the p1ss, have a laugh at the hideous ‘costumes’ you lot seem to think are classy and generally marvel at how you all manage to out-tack each other in the wedding stakes.
I’m still laughing at one of the pikey bride’s kids names – “Hannah Montanna McDonough”.
Crikey, I’d pay good money to access the content on this fabulous website!
These comments are so British! Nice try distancing yourselves from the harsh reality of The Tacky. When you can’t blame your foulness on the U.S., blame it on the Irish.
@ Marnie: No, they are ACTUALLY (really!) Irish Traveller weddings. Nothing to do with blaming it on someone else. Irish Travellers are an ethnic minority in the UK and in the US. In the US they live mostly in South Carolina. These types of weddings are part of their unique culture. Nothing to do with ’shifting blame’ at all.
Hahahaha the Father of the bride still has the tag on the sleeve of his suit. That’s a dead give away of chavyness. “i’ve left it on so’s people can see it’s expensive”
Instead of “Here comes the Bride,” they probably played some strip tease music when she walked down the aisle! How could a bride not feel cheap and slutty in such a dress? I wonder where she found it… maybe in some fettish boutique.
WATS IT GOT 2 DO WIT YA HANDICAP
Classy reply. You’re not in any way reinforcing stereotypes of your community. Keep it up.
WOW I am speechless. Chavtastic indeed!
Wow, is this for real or some kind of prank for tv or something?
personally i think your all jelouse that a man ha saved up to pay for his own daughters wedding so she could have everything she wanted and they are things you cannot afford.you call us pickey scum but your just gorger poxes i think that she looked beautiful.and not all gypsys are irish.U is all racist scum predudice ass holes all g fuck ff back to your shit little lives.yu don judge a book by its cover and yo do not see everyone for just the way one person is all of u lot are low life chavs.and your toilet roll .aint good enough to wipe our asses on
Why didn’t the Father of the bride just buy her a proper home? Wasting all that money on one single day seems like an enormous waste of resources to me.
Wouldn’t it make more sense to buy them a home where they can establish their family and raise their children? It would bring stability to their lives.
just to let you know. to us TRAVELLERS a trailer is a proper home. its wat we have lived in all of our lives and always will do !!!! noting you can do to change that.
Ha ha ha, oh dear.

—to ”not a racist” **Please also note they live in a caravan that travels and not a ‘trailer’ (non UKer should really look up the difference)**
so noted… that NON ukers dont need to look up the difference. they live in a trailer, a caravan is just what you all there call it (as my uk friend notes, a caravan is like a really shitty trailer, not as fancy as the americans tend to get) here we refer to 2 things as trailers… the more common being what you call a caravan, and the less being a stationary trailer, small house rather (of 1 or 2 bedrooms) prebuilt.
although i agree with all of you on the tackiness i dont like to go towards insults as they are not really necessary. but in stating the obvious.. PLEASE let them be infertile… for the sake of humanity. and ”not a racist”…. if one culture finds an outfit not slutty it is acceptable IN that culture because there are no negative effects taken in behavior of or towards that individual… but if in a culture that finds something slutty, you put that clothing on a child, the effects in the behavior both of and to that individual IS negative and has the high chance of turning out a permiscuous and otherwise inappropriately behaving adult. you can not say because it is acceptable in one culture so different from ours, that we should accept it here… when the effects are so different because the culture itself is so different.
as to the comments about the girl being fat… come on, dont insult just to insult, she’s actually of a healthy physique. and no marrying young is not always bad, i married at 18 and i have thus far passed 4 years of a happy marriage and have our first child on the way. however my highschool friend did the same and her marriage is a complete failure. the age is not so important as the maturity of the individual and that they actually know what they are doing. all in all, i say… they are NUTS for spending all their money. hey, its their money… but i could have gotten the same done for less than the price of a used pick up truck. **why do ppl have to spend money to be happy? my wedding was BEAUTIFUL.. a white gown wedding in a church and the reception in an extreeeeeemely hard to reserve location… gorgeous cake and celebration, favors and all.. and it was hardly a few thousand $ usd (my wedding dress i got for 200 $ usd that has a store value of at least $8,000) but if you dont want to show off money you can get nicer for less. ppl are too obsessed… they could get married in garbage bags but if it cost a fortune it’s ”wonderful” (eye rolling)
Well said! I only spent $200 on a nice dress and that money went to a breast cancer charity. The amount of money spent doesn’t make for a better wedding, or a long lasting relationship, its the commitment between the individuals.
Trailers, trash, travellers, what-have-you…it doesn’t matter. They all look like they’re from Staten Island to me.
Gyppos – says it all really! I wonder where they get the money from oh yes the reason they can afford to dress their children up as prostitutes is because they don’t pay any taxes, rates, national insurance…but that is another story.
hi wot do u mean gyppos im a travller i work and pay my taxes and n.i.not all of us is da same.there are alot of non travllers who i know are on da doll and as been on it 4 years they ave never had a job.
When you learn how to spell, we’ll consider your comments as intelligent.
It being the UK and all shouldn’t we be happy they are marrying and not just shacking up like the rest of their countrymen? I get the impression from UK news sites that no one really marries anymore. Marrying at 16 really is good. Consider the single, pregnant 15 year old who lifes ambition is to have the baby and live on the dole for her whole life. If this couple stays together and he works to support her and they are not on the dole what’s the gripe? They’ll get to enjoy their kids, grandkids and greatgrandkids while the rest of us sit elderly and alone.
what a wonderful visual assault. Nothing like a truly trashy wedding to brighten my day
I haven’t been to a wedding lately, but i’d imagine with current fashion trends for the young, this is probably normal, lol.
oh -child prostitutes – there’s a photo for the album – “and this was Mummy when she was 8, before she started streetwalking for real.”
LMAO
“TINA”, I don’t think anyone would be jealous of looking like 47 yr old stripper when they’re barely 16..well at least not anyone in their right mind would.
BTW,getting married isn’t about guts, it’s about love and commitment….. use that brain,honey…it may be rather small and hard to find in that thick skull of yours, but it’s well worth a try
P.S.- You look less like an idiot when you don’t write in caps…
i am so proud of my nation…
[...] March 20, 2009 This site, Tacky Weddings, exposes some truly unbelievable…creativity. This one is astounding. [...]
*Jadie* – Learn how to spell if you want anyone to care about whatever twaddle you’ve decided to inflict on us.
The most disturbing part of this affair – and there was so much to be disturbed about – was the fact that the bride hasn’t been in school since she was 9.
What bright life she has in front of her.
Exactly…the rest doesn’t really matter, five years down the road when she’s no longer a glam model and out of the spotlight will she or her husband be making ANY money? Personally I was homeschooled so I’m all for alternate forms of school, but most of life’s situations REQUIRE some sort of “book” knowledge
I really don’t understand why anyone from the UK would defend trash. I’m from the UK myself and I know- these people ARE the equivalent of American Trailer trash. They tan so much they look like bloody Oompa Loompas, even in the winter they wear their ridiculously revealing clothing and instead of educations and respectable homes they buy plastic surgery and trashy “Designer” crap.
–Jadie- you’re a prime example of the trash.
for the love of god- put some clothes on, stay in school and keep away from tanning salons!
just like to let you no we aren’t trailer trash !!!!. and not all of us are the same. im a traveller and i aint orange, i dont wear belly tops and hotpants and i am in my last year of secondary school at the minute. so suck on that one you racist bitch !!!!
This can not seriously be real?
Too crazy to be true. Maybe she wanted to get attention more than be married. Anyway it was her choice. She decided to look like a tramp, her bridesmaids looked cheap and her mother though that she may show the nipples if she was not getting enough attention.
Sorry, but she looks like a clown. She could have been absolutely gorgeous with natural make up and a normal gown.
umm, Jadie. If you’re going to rant about something, at least use correct grammar and refrain from typing errors. It’s called spell check. Oh my God, this is so TACKY, and that boy/girl really does look like boy george. A LOT.
A Slut’s Dream Wedding! Note that Bride is Top Slut! Bride’s Mom is 2nd Slut! And, guests are next sluttiest! All the girls get to do their slutty thing without upstaging the hierachy! Dad is proud as a peacock, and rightfully so, since he gets to show-off the house tarts at their finest! We, are all tickled pink for the display! A win-win situation! Fantastic!
Wow, I can’t get past how redneck/hillbilly Jadie sounds…When you say “jelouse” “u is all” “pedudice” etc etc people may find it somewhat difficult to take you seriously.
I was waiting for you to say “dat dere skunk on de road, dat’s me weddin’ drass, et’s so classy, my daddy, e been savin for a long time to buy et for me and me broda’s weddin’, cause i been a good girl”.
It is sweet her Father paid for the wedding, it was kind of him but who in their right mind would condone a wedding like that; then again, she left school at 9, I think that pretty much explains it.
I feel sorry for the poor girl, she is quite pretty and doesn’t seem to have much hope of having a very bright future. I hope everything goes well for her.
OI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That was my wedding. It was a quiet, classy affair. I enjoyed myself very much, though it was a tad nippy on the old tum, know what I mean?
First of all. Learn to spell.
Second. that was not classy money cannot buy class darling.
third. i dont see how you were “a tad nippy on the old tum” with all that flab do some bloody situps before you choose to dress like a stripper on crack
well that was obviously not a serious post, you retard, so stop trying to sound smart.. you just sound stupid cos it was obviously a JOKE…
if ye all hate us travellers so much y de fuk ye on this page ye are all mental jealous of us coz we are everytin ye are not and not one of ye wud say any of dis to our faces coz ye know we wud lave ye dead so if it makes ye feel better carry on tryna put us down ye are just makin a show of yourselves and its ye dat are the low lives by cumin on ere us travellers aare makin a dogs laf of ye hahahahahahahahahaaa oh and kiss me sexy travellers arse if ye have tym after al the backbitin
Traveller gal – I like how you hypocritically describe us as “low life” but you’re saying YOU would “leave us dead” because we’re having a bit of a laugh about we all feel are amazingly awful wedding outfits!
Would you really kill someone because they don’t like what you’re wearing?
Unbelievable.
I know you think you’re above the law – arrogant enough to think that it doesn’t apply to you, but you’d better believe that all the time you’re in our country, then you have to obey our laws, whether you like it or not.
If you don’t like it, feel free to exercise your right to leave.
Until then, laugh we will. Unlike murder, it’s not a crime to have an opinion.
i was born in this country so stop tryin to be smart how would you know where i was born you fucking weirdo and yeah if someone beside me insulted me our my family whether its about a wedding or anyfing i would knock them out end of story nothing got to do wit you id happily shoot your brains out lol
I don’t give a toss where you were born. I tried to but after a couple of nano-seconds I gave up.
Have you heard yourself? “I’ll shoot ya brains out” every time you hit ’submit comment’ you do your race another huge dis-service.
16 ehhhhh?? Wow at sixteen i just perfected how to wear eyeliner. Let alone be married. The parents dont have a daughter, they have a “buddy” . Kind of sad, She will miss the dating and the fun it is to be a young adult, because more than likely they want a baby and all the crap that comes with it. They honestly dont look like they can take care of themselves and the girls parents look like they are overcompensating for their issues. As the boys mom- never would i have signed or agreed to it. It would have been easier to castrate my boy and hand it to him in a jar than let him get married that young. Seriously. Most young child brides only 10 percent make it. Hopefully it works out. If not she can join the Samba circuit in Rio with that outfit.
I’m just thinking sahe’s going to have severe skin cancer (melanoma) by 19 and if they have children he’s going to be stuck raising them alone
How can her parents reward her for being a primary school drop-out! Where are their values? Just think of the college education that of that money could have bought — as the bride needs an education in the worst way.
And yes, the little girls dressing slutty make me want to scream at their parents.
[...] Travellers) wedding of a 16 year old girl in the UK where her family spent 150,000 k on wedding http://tackyweddings.com/2008/10/30/outer-limits-tacky-150k-wedding-for-uk-16-year-old-girl-ugliest-…. I read the article with my mouth hanging open. I’m not sure what is more appalling, the [...]

how exactly is the father proud of her??
The label doesn’t really matter. You can call it trailer trash, redneck, chav or traveller. Whatever you call it, it’s a young woman who threw away the chance to be educated and got married at 16 dressed like a stripper. With the consent of her parents. Who don’t seem to think that wearing a gigantic bra to a religious ceremony is perhaps inappropriate.
The whole thing horrifies me. It makes me laugh when I first see it – in a “ohmygod that has to be a joke” kind of way, and then I just think it’s tragic.
* Jadie, most dads save up to pay for their daughters wedding. There’s nothing unusual in that. What’s different here, I think, is that on the whole, most dads want their daughter to get married wearing an entire outfit. Not the sartorial equivalent of a tampon and two bits of elastoplast. (Swarovski encrusted or not.) If I could afford the dress that Missy was wearing, I would burn it to stop someone else from wearing it. Bear in mind that for some of us, what Missy was wearing is NOT the epitome of style and something to aspire to, but something to avoid with every fibre of our being, and possibly to have declared illegal – on a style basis alone.
I’ve been in Catholic churches where you couldn’t get married in a strapless wedding gown. . .I can’t believe bare midriff and mini skirt is ok in the UK.
STILL JUDGING PEOPLE, WHAT A SAD LOT OF LOSERS YOU PEOPLE ARE, JUST BE HAPPY THAT HER PARENTS HAD THE SENSE TO LET HER GET MARRIED BEFORE HAVING CHILDREN, UNLIKE THE YOUNG GIRLS IN THE US AND UK
Um, it’s fun to judge people. Don’t pretend that you aren’t judging us. Nobody is perfect and that is what makes life fun.
To Angel: Who gives a flying fuck about Jesus?
These are some of the ugliest, insensitive, and yes, ignorant comments I’ve ever read. It’s basically cyber bullying. And it’s wrong. Without takeing into account, culture, region, and personal preferance, this family, and mostly this young married woman, has been attacked. She was trashed and hurt by all the people who don’t care, and feel they know better. Whatever your belief of the bible, folk tale or truth, Jesus was friends with beggars, liars, thieves and “street filth” His close friend rolled on him. And he is supposed to be what we set the standard by. So all this about trailer trash is ignorant. How well do you know your neighbor living in his less than affordable home working too hard for the low pay he earns? Enough to know his little girl is sick? Or that his son can’t play little league cause the practice time is after his only ride home (the bus) leaves. I doubt you do. I do cause I I don’t care where a person lives, what they do, or even how much education they have. All I care about is how good that person is or what I can do to help them by being a friend. Or offering to pick Jake up after school cause mom is at work.
I see a lot I dissagree with. The extravagance, the inapropriate clothing, the inproper dresses the youth are wearing. I’m not a church goer so it’s not religion that has me think it’s too much too young, that’s me. Even the age of the couple is a little jarring. But I think it was her father’s choice to save the funds and let her know, as a child what she could expect from them as a bride. I’m middle class american, married as a teen, still wed 14 years later, and have been saving for my 4 girls quinceneria AND wedding days. My limits are not as open as this family but I don’t want to be roaming the web and see that my child was picked apart by vultures like this family has been.
She seems like a sweet girl and I hope she enjoyed her elaborate wedding that her parents loved her enough to provide. Any one ever see Platinum Bride on WE? MILLION dollar weddings. I hope to learn more about a culture that places an importance on events like these and learn why. We all should.
yes people do get married at a young age nd if thats wat dey want wel then der obviously happy together so other people should mind der own business im only 17 nd many of my relations are married at this age .. the bride does look stunning nd is nat 1 bit fat … yer jus all a pack of jealous wasters.. and what they have spent on the wedding is there business it was her dream day a day shel never 4 get so y shudnt she spend so much money 4 what she wanted… 1 last ting … up the pikeys
After a little bit of research into “travellers” I noticed that their life expectancy is around 39 yrs. of age. That would mean in “traveller” years, the 16 yr. old girl is actually an old maid of 41 yrs. of age.
I don’t like bullying, but why are these children allowed to dress this way and get married?! Regardless of culture or race, these children are dressed far too provocatively for their age. What parent buys their children these outfits? These are babies for goodness sakes!
Be tacky all you want, but just let the children be children. Custom or no custom, these little girls look like they’re selling (or giving away) sex.
IF GETTIN MARRED AT 16 WAS SO BAD Y R WE ALLOWED 2 DO IT THN ?? IM GETIN MARED N IM 16 I DNT C WOTS SO BAD ABWT IT.. & MISSY ISNT SELLIN IT OR GIVIN IT AWAY SHES NOT LIKE DAT!!

LOVEYAA MISSY XXXXX
well said my girl im also gettin marriedand im 16 and at least ya dont hear of travellers havin divorces or rapin people or anything like dat so its sickenin that these buffers let on to be perfect xx
Nobody said anything about being perfect.
Why don’t you tell the truth though? By way of tv news reports and newspapers, I’ve heard accounts of pikey life that would make your hair curl. One father shot his son dead in an argument, two pikey lads raped a 15 year old schoolgirl, three pikey lads beat up a 50 year old grandmother for her groceries – not to mention intimidation, trespass, theft, car crime, animal abuse, illegal firearms, benefit fraud etc.
Do you not understand that it’s all those things that people detest about pikey lifestyles? Why don’t you stay legal? Ok, stay in a caravan if you like but pay your way – it’s not as if you can’t afford to pay taxes, pay for (and keep clean and tidy) legal sites etc. You’d have all the respect in the world if you did. I know this will never happen though, you’ll keep plundering all that is not yours and get away with doing so by passing it off as ‘culture’ and calling everyone racists.
I know there’s a few ‘live and let live’ moralists on here that say we should embrace your culture but all the time you see fit to behave the way you do instead of at least trying to co-exist, I’m not going to bother trying to meet anyone halfway. I used to but not any more. Make an effort for goodness’ sake, it’s not just down to us.
THIS IS NOT A TACKY WEDDING MISSY N THOMAS R CLOSE PALS OF MINE AND THEIR FAMILYS SPENT ALOT OF MONEY MAKING THERE WEDDING ONE OF THA BIGGEST N BEST AROUND. HUNDREDS OF ENGLISH N IRISH TRAVELLERS WERE INVITED MOSTLY FAMILY N CLOSE PALS, LIKE MYSELF.
YOU HAVE TO BE A TRAVELLER TO KNOW THA BEST
I guess your education stopped at the age of nine.
Are you writing in English?
no she is writing in chinese what the fuck does it look like it seems you need to go back to school and for your information lots of us stay in school im nearly 17 and at college and workingand gettin married so stop trying to put smart answers down here coz noone wants to know
OK, now I couldn’t give a hoot what race/religion/ethnicity they are, but you do not just ’save up’ *£150K* from simply tarmacing.
Best of luck to the happy couple, they’re going to need it. But if anyone thinks the purpose of a wedding is to make it ‘THA BIGGEST N BEST AROUND’ is sadly missing the point.
Go back and look at the 5th picture of the bride and groom, standing together in the church, looking like it’s the happiest day of their lives. Good for them, I say. Congratulations and best of luck to the couple.
To be perfectly honest, I did roll my eyes at the outfits and excesses shown in the pictures, but I wasn’t raised in that culture. If pictures were posted of, for instance, a very traditional Amish wedding from Pennsylvania or the American Midwest, would people gripe about the funny clothes or the youth of the bride or even the fact that their educational practices are different from mainstream America’s? (Of course there are no pictures of Amish weddings.) Most people would find an Amish wedding much less tacky, but the idea of a semi-isolationist culture (Amish, Traveller, whatever) with its own practices and traditions is the same.
At least the Traveller wedding reflects a genuine traditional culture, not something made-up like Goth culture.
ACTUALLY ”MISS D” WE ARENT MISSIN DE POINT IM SAYIN MISSY WANTED HER WEDDIN 2 BE REMEMBERED. IF U DIDNT LIKE IT SIMPLE DNT COMMENT WOT GIVES U DE RYT 2 JUDGE PPL ON WOT DEY LOOK LYK N WOT TYPE OF WEDDIN DEY HAD.

GOOD ON YOU GIRL YOU REALLY KNOW WHAT YOURE SAYING….X
That’s good, because I can’t understand a word!!
Oh my god
LEARN TO SPELL!
Emma you’re a smart cookie and I agree with everything you’ve said. Still a bloody tacky wedding though!
chantelle and irish traveller, i find you both so funny, for one neither of you can spell very well and secondly, irish traveller, you say people need to get a hobby because they are on this…then why are you on here excatly?
and by the way your not talking english you are talking as if you were sending a chavvy text, thats not english, please do go back and start primary school again, both of you…chantelle, your not a gangster, pikeys arent gangsters, they are cum that flots on the toilets of the united kingdom
would you like me tp put that in a text?
i would KNOCK THE BACK OUT OF HER!!!
then her hubby would KNOCK THE BACK OUT OF YOU.X
hahaha
i’ve w@nked over that top picture chantelle
I don’t care for Missy’s attire, or the attire that anyone is wearing at the wedding, but the anti-Traveller and anti-Irish comments are really disturbing. To HATE an entire group of people just because of their economic background is extremely shallow and sad. It seems that Missy and her friends are emulating the so called “chav” style that Jordan/Katie Price has made popular. I may not agree with it, but it’s not a reason to hate. Keep your racism and classism to yourself!
thank you kitty…
I’m all for nontraditional weddings, being a regular at the Offbeat Bride site, but this is just… I threw up a little in my mouth.
It doesn’t matter who you are or your economic background. It’s clear that this girl, however, disregarded the fact that her family might be in debt for the rest of their lives because of this. If she isn’t intelligent or courteous enough to take her family’s budget into account and if her father can’t set some boundaries, she shouldn’t be getting married.
Being financially dependent on your parents, who are now in debt up to their eyeballs, is NOT a good way to start off a marriage.
I thought this was some trashy latino-trailer thing, but now I see it’s in jolly old England. Guys! Get a grip on your culture now before it’s too late.
Daddy should have spent that money on plastic surgery if girlie thinks she’s going to have a career as a model.
What will do for her second wedding at 18?
She wont get married again, when Travellers get married its for life. Most Traveller girls dont go to school after the age of 10 cause there parents dont want them mixing with boys and drugs and drink, which is fare play to them, but I’ve noticed in the last few years they are going to college and getting good jobs now. You should’nt knock them its there way of life, its her big day and why should’nt her ma and da be proud of her?
“Most traveller girls don’t go to school after the age of 10 cause(sic) there(sic) parents don’t want them mixing with boys and drugs and drink”
I assume that their ‘parents’ are also happy to see their children grow up illiterate and unable to read/write.
What a selfish attitude. Selfishness seems to be a common trait with the traveller community – fly tipping, theft, intimidating the elderly etc.
How revolting
NEXT TIME TRY NOT TO LOOOOOOOK AT THE MIRRO
N.B. ‘Look’ only has two ‘o’s & there is an ‘r’ at the end of mirror. Also, a little tip – turn off your CAPS LOCK – it’s like shouting, and people who shout all the time rarely have anything interesting to say!
Are the groom & the bride’s Dad related? They look like they are. Seriously though, what a tacky wedding – £100,00 to look like a twat!!
LISTEN MAK U ARE A BASTARD EVEN IF U ARE A BOY OR A GIRL……………………….HAHAHAHAHAHA
Wow – witty retort there – A Bastard!! – wow that told me.
mak are you a teacher or just a sad prick who goes around checking grammer and spelling, bet you would’nt say this stuff to their faces cause you know what you’d get, do you personally know any travellers? I do and they are lovely people, just get on with your sad life and keep your sick comments to yourself
it’s ‘wouldn’t’ – not ‘would’nt’
….& it’s grammar not grammer!
After reading thru the comments, all I can say is what people choose to do, as long as they are not physically or mentally hurting anyone else, is their CHOICE! I cannot believe how judgemental people are being – are you all absolutely perfect, because believe me I couldn’t be in the same room as some you bigots! Your negativity stinks. I am more concerned about pointless war, and people living in abject misery and hunger than how people choose to get married! Still I suppose it makes you feel superior … in a sad way.
And I would like to add to all those non-British (mainly Americans) who thinks it’s funny to slag off our culture … just look at yourselves because you have a lot to be ashamed of … what happened to tolerance? You’re not funny … I have two words: Jerry Springer …
get a life everyone has money and your dress wasnt all that. pettey u dident havent a figer .dont brag realy u were a show daddys girl.
These pictures blew me away, but not as much as the comments did. It’s like a mini class war
1. Don’t trash another culture just because you don’t get it, and don’t be so fracking mean!
2. If you were speaking it might sound like english, but you’re not writing it. It has nothing to do with your culture either; too many people do it regardless of their education level. The word is you not u. It’s two/to/too not 2. You don’t need to try to represent your accent in your typing. Neither do I. I’d hate to see how it looked if I tried.
That is not a wedding dress. That is a Las Vegas showgirl costume. Why is her mother wearing her bra on the outside of the dress? Did you notice how much the groom resembles the father of the bride? Are they related?
Yes I noticed the groom/father of the bride resemblance. I suspect they may ALL be related – interesting gene pool. The mother of the bride has a ridiculous boob job & Dave Grohl teeth!
Yes, it is true it is not fair to judge, but if they did not want to be laughed at or felt sorry for, this collection of very cheap prostitutes, their children and their pimps should have stayed inside and banned photographers.
Why didn’t they just come to NY and have this event on Maury? hee hee
addie
Im a TRAVELLER & PROUD. And this is how we do our weddings, so what if she had 100,000 pounds weddding with a sexy wedding dress. your all just jealous that we can afford to spend that much on a wedding. your so racist and narrow minded its unbelivable. i hope karma turns round and bites you. Im 19 and married for 2 Years (I Got married when i was 17) and my wedding dress resembled jordans it was the happiest day of my life. Its a known fact that travellers have longer marraiges than settled people. Probbly because we have better morals than you. Racist sad people.
Its a known fact pikeys have longer marriages? Known to who? Then again I guess its easier to stick together when your married to your brother.
“Its a known fact that travellers have longer marraiges than settled people.”
Really. And would you be able to provide us all with official statistics backing this up?
Your wedding sounds charming – little surprise you look to ‘Jordan’ as a role model though – uneducated, vulgar, loud-mouthed, self obsessed & thick as shite!
For what its worth, Im a gorja, and I think she looks absolutely stunning. A lot of these comments are from guys who are gutted that traveller girls are NOT sluts, because they know they will never have a chance with them.
There’s a traveller site near me, and the girls are absolutely gorgeous. So what if their style is different from the mainstream? Everyone on here should show a little tolerance. I’d marry her in a second!!
That was a classy response, Sabrina.
Right.
I hope she is very happy and I do not think we have evidence of her morals one way or the other.
What we do know, however, it that this is one tacky wedding party and they should all be embarrassed and we know you are too defensive and too angry for your claims of happiness and pride to be true.
You probably do not understand what I mean and/or you will say you are not an angry person or defensive in the least, but that is okay.
addie
im a traveller myself and all i can say for you all is that your all racist against us just because we travel around in caravans do’s not make us different from everyone else were still human at the end of day.me myself i don’t even care what you about us anymore because all i can say is that just because we can afford big weddings and you lot cant and no it’s not from benifits people with hearts actually give traveller’s jobs out there unlike you. your all racist
Geez. Learn basic spelling and grammar would you? However, I do think it’s unfair that you are all getting tarred with the same brush here; the unfortunate thing is that as a people, you’ve built up a reputation for yourselves and not a very good one at that.
Still human!!! are you sure?
no crystal not all travellers have built that reputation its just people beening prejudiced and judging us like….
that tell me….. anyone that has written a bad comment about travellers… have you actually met one so fucking judge people before you even know them
racist tramps
im an irish traveller and very proud but all i can say for you is that you are RACIST. just because were travellers do’s not mean you can go around judging us. all i know is that im a 17 yr old girl and getting married i have a job and i know my wedding will be outstanding just because you lot cant afford a big wedding do’s not mean we cant and when we do we get nasty comments about it i think missy’s new what she wanted and even if she did wear a crop top and short skirt it doesnt mean you can give all bad comments so what if she had a big wedding at least she can afford it which is more than i can say for u lot i dont even think half of you even are married and if you are u proberly got married in a register office so why judge us YOUR ALL JUST A PACK OF RACIST FREAKS.
To Mak and the other supercilious bigots. Were you Hitler in a former life? For your information, people who live in mortgaged houses can still instill fear in elderly people, fly tip, etc – so don’t tar everyone with the same brush! Unless, of course, you are god and can see and care how everyone in the world lives their lives, Mr Alf Garnett Know It All! So glad I don’t know you personally and I pity anyone who is slightly different who does!
Yes i AM God so button it
At the end of the day Gypsies are criminal scum. In our area, quite an affulent area, we had some gypos move onto one of the local parks. Crime in our area shot up over night – 20 plus sheds & garages were broken into over a two night period. The council moved them on, crime dropped immediately. But the mess, the excrement, the rubbish, the piles of hardcore and building refuse they left after only two days was shocking, it cost us, the taxpayers, thousands to clear up. So yes, call me racist if you like, if racist means finding gypos and their despicable behaviour wrong, then I wear that badge with pride.
Granted, pikeys do have a LOT of money, because they steal, defraud, dont pay tax and claim benefits. Without sounding course, I think Hitler had the right idea when it came to scum like them.
WHOA… time to get back on the meds, my friend.
Gabs: that is a vile and despicable comment. Shame on you.
if hitler had any brains he would have killed racist scum like you instead of gypsy’s and disabled people
I know what you mean Gabs – theiving knuckle-dragging oafs the lot of ‘em.
The fact that most can’t read or write should tell you all you need to know.
I think we should get off the Hitler rant!
Although I myself had a little laugh at the choice of attire and general ‘tackiness’ of it all it was through my own culture and middle class aspirations or even pretentions of taste that I have. The traveller’s on here have not really offended mainstream UK culture but defended their own, yet a lot of the comments are unnecessarily derogatory the otherway around. I don’t agree with tax evasion and obvious health issues that result in a low life expectancy. I want to know from travellers, what are your aspirations? Is low life expectancy real or just fake? Do you pay tax? And the whole Jordan thing, she is a post feminist parody please do not copy her!! Get a clue
I 99% agree Gabs. The other 1% is about the Hitler comment, I don’t think he has a place in this thread hun x
So .. consensus:
1. Wedding might have been tacky
and
2. Little girls should not be dressed half-naked
but
3. Points 1 and 2 should not be used to enter into a wholesale bashing of Traveller culture
and
4. Travellers experience racism frequently, including above, which is unacceptable
but
5. Travellers fail to grasp the problems apparent to mainstream society with a patriarchal society that privileges female virginity and low educational attainment
because
6. they see that behaviour as inherently moral
whereas
7. other people see the patriarchy, the undue emphasis on female virginity, and leaving school young as immoral and sexist
and
8. a lot of people need to learn how to construct an argument.
Thats not actually the grooms mother it’s the brides grandmother, one of my mums colleagues friends was at this wedding, dunno how they got invited, but there was a free bar for about 3 days
i tink this wedding was handsum x
and i tink all u gorger are the ones dat av da tackey weddings coz ya cant afford nank x
Ah – but us ‘gorgers’ can spell & walk past something that isn’t nailed down without stealing it.
I find it weird that people who live in a culture of high divorce rates and unmarried teen pregnancy can be so judgemental of this family who are sticking to their cultural values of early marriage underpinned by the support of their whole close-knit community.
Many travellers chose not to send their children (especially girls) to school beyond primary because they want to preserve a lifestyle which is theirs. And in some ways I can’t blame them because their families stick together in a way most of ours have long lost. Literacy isn’t the be all and end all, and it only makes the commenters look deeply unpleasant when they pick up the Travellers’ comments for their spelling and grammar. Not big. Not clever… just nasty. You can pick the meaning perfectly well out of the comments.
So what if it is flashy? That’s their choice. It’s their money, and to assume it has been earned illegally is as racist as saying everyone from Liverpool is a csar thief, or all Asians are terrorists. Absolute rubbish.
Thank god we are free to have the wedding celebration of our dreams even if that doesn’t fit someone else’s sick hypocritical stereotype of what a woman should look like on her wedding day.
Missy, I bet you stay married for longer than most of the people who have left negative comments on this site. You look happy, and you look loved. And I wish you well.
I find this politically-correct moralizing ridiculous. Yes, it’s unfortunate that these “travellers” are berated for their poor grasp of the English language, but for Tessa to say literacy isn’t important is enabling, pure and simple. Let them be ignorant, as long as it makes them happy! No matter that the rest of their lives will be hard because of it.
Furthermore, whereas many people are disadvantaged in this arena because of their socioeconomic status, these “travellers” apparently have lots of cash at their disposal yet choose to spend it on things like Rolls-Royce car services, open bars, and bedazzled wedding gowns. How many years of private schooling would that have bought, if safety is really the issue? (Also, I can’t help but point out that maybe the parents are concerned about the purity of their girls because they allow them to dress up like harlots from an early age.)
I’m not condoning being unnecessarily rude, but in order to make a point sometimes people need a little tough love, not the “oh you’re just different, hugs all around” approach. How do these girls escape becoming illiterate child brides, if it’s all so glamorized and over the top?
Finally, the argument that these people should be able to have whatever wedding makes them happy, and everyone should stop being mean about it, etc etc. is trite and toothless. While it is true that, yes, they can make their dream wedding out of mountains of pink tulle and balloon arches and plastic surgery, does the fact they wanted it that way grant them immunity from mockery? No. People as just as free to ridicule as these brides are to make unfortunate wardrobe choices. If they really think these weddings are so outstanding and classy, as many of the traveller’s comments suggest, perhaps they should make a website dedicated to “tacky traditional weddings”.
And that’s all fine, Tessa, but much of a Traveller woman’s life is dictated by deep-seated, proscriptive sexual mores which act against any right she has to choose her sexual partners and determine her own activities. Marriages are longlasting because there is an almost unbreakable cultural taboo against divorce, not because all marriages are happy and successful.
And I agree, literacy is not the be all and end all, and it’s tacky to criticise the Traveller women who have commented here for their expression, but it remains that many Traveller girls are removed from school early to protect their ‘purity’. As well as perpetuating offensive ideas about a womans’ virginity and her associated ‘value’, that’s a violation of a human right and culture cannot be used to justify it.
i dont fink her weeding was tacky at all i wood love to av a weeding like dat she looks stunning x
You can come round mine whenever you want – my garden’s really overgrown & needs a good weeding
well go weed it then instead of acting smart on this when no-one cares by the way i hope you find a GRAMMAR error since you seem to spend so much of your time looking for them,im a traveller and proud your kind of people will never bring us down.
‘traveller gal’ (sic)…Ignorance is bliss as they say.
You’ve never known any better, so you don’t realise the world’s laughing at you. Bless!
i tink she ad the best wedding even al da 1’s i bin to like dat she must of had the best lookin dress and she looked stunnin init x
Point taken entirely Emma. The same applies to women/girls in some other minority ethnic communities in the UK. But if things are to change, then Traveller families need to feel it’s safe to send their girls to school, and judging by some of the responses here, it’s not surprising they don’t.
The level of intimidation and bullying of Traveller children in secondary schools is scary.
Agreed, Tessa
us travlers dnt get bulled at skool if dats wot ur sayin ?
You have to actually attend a school to be bullied there LOL
I’m glad you didn’t, but the Travellers I worked with had a rough time of it at school. Did you like school?
hi im a traveller i loved school now im in college and wouldnt change it for the world x
the lady dat made her dress made mine 2 x
Where did that comment go about politically correct moralising/a little tough love? I was going to point out to that poster that when a pisstake on an over-the-top wedding elicits comments like the one above from Gabs that “Hitler had the right idea”, it’s nothing to do with PCness and everything to do with intense, deep-seated racial hatred – and that that is not ok, ever.
Ok, that’s all well and good, but nothing I said above can rationally be interpreted as condoning racism.
Also, you will notice that I actually responded to that poster’s comment, so yes, I agree.
no i came out in year 5 x
I don’t know why travellers are coming on here so upset about people’s comments. This site is called’Tacky Weddings’ – When this shower decided to go public with this vulgar display of (ill gotten) wealth & bad taste, they must of realised people would find them hilarious! It’s ironic they spent so much on a wedding – then go and live in a caravan.
slumped on the pew in the church, oh yeah she’s 16 all right. and tired and bored =[
what a disaster all over!
looked over more comments and i’ve got to say again: looks like an expensive disaster. and tyo answer some standard lines, i’m 23, married and happy, we (our families and we) spent about 3,000 on th wedding and if i could post a photo to thow you all what i think ‘chev’ is, i’d be more than happy to. looking at these pics i had no idea that they represented any culture in particular and still thought they were less than charming. no hate, no racism. finally i think some of the um, ‘non traveller’ comments have been WAY off! but alot of the ‘traveller’ comments have be wildly retaliatory with little cause and accuse others of racism for having different cultural views of ‘tasteful’, ‘right’ and ‘educated’, sounds like racism to me….?
u pack of hipacritical sluts at least travellers have husbands 2 go wit the children and u call us the sluts and when we get marryed its 4 life.ure the ones that have jobs like pole dansing or stripping.ure perfect little children are parents at the age of 12 or 13 at least us travellers get marryed first!
who makes these wedding dresses name
and addres and phone number soon as possible please
I have not made one like that but I do make them for travellers, I prefer to make them a bit classier, they like the bigger Jordan look and to be honest the girls like to cover their chests in front of the priests, this was a kind of one off, although Missy initially was happy with it, I think she would have changed it if she had to do it again. Don’t underestimate travellers whilst this may not be great evidence they have really got a great sense of costume some of their ideas are far over my head, granted this is hardly a wedding dress I would say very expensive clubwear, I think the figures are overestimated and the travellers underestimated but I guarantee whether their lives are good or not, these people will remain married because this is how they do it. majestybridal@googlemail.com

I think that the bride and guests looked stunning, absolutely gorgeous, and I wish you all the best with your own wedding, I’m sure you’ll look just as beautiful as Missy did.

The bride’s dress is pretty, but it seems more like a Las Vegas showgirl costume than a bridal gown. But so what! So the girl is 16, and the groom is 17! So what! At least they are not doing what too many kids are doing here: being promiscuous, having babies, going on welfare, wasting taxpayer money. Good for them and God bless them.
@Linus
So gypsies don’t “go on welfare or waste taxpayers money”?
That statement is funnier than the wedding photographs!
Is this a pornstar wedding or something?
will somebody please tell me why are people so jealous minded??why do u lot have to got writeing bad stuff about travellers?you dont see travellers going writeing bad stuff about setteled people.where do you lot get the impression that travellers are not eduacted??you lot are all looking for proof on things..whay dont you go and get us some proof that shows we are not eduacted becuse u are not going to get it..if we are not eduacted how come we are eduacted eought to write a blog?how come we are educated enough to go and work annd get the mony for these weddings..so dont go writeing stupid foolish comments lik that because it is not true! i am eduacted i finished school and i went to collage and am a hairdresser now.which is more than some of you buffers can say.
you might not relise it but you really upset that girl by leaving all them nasty comments.why would you say such as thing as she is fat after everything on the news about stick thin girls.you lot just need to wake up and smell the fresh air you are jelous..GET A LIFE!!!!!!!!
Well said babes
Didn’t learn to spell did you?
i know alot of buffer girls that left school at the age of 13 cos they were pregnant and didnt even know who the father or that the father didnt want to get involved but when us traveller girls do decide to get pregnant we know who the father is and his willing to stand by us all the way… traveller girls aint whores or sluts we have standards so all the ppl that left bad comments are just jealous that you could never get a traveller girl
Wow. This entire exchange has been truly entertaining.
look ye buffers are just jelouse becos us traveller girls get what we like wen were getting married my sister got married last year and her dress wedding cloths cost 20 thousand she was even on the telly,
my fathers gives his girls everything he possible can,so all i can say that girls father dune the same to his little princess,give her wat she wanted,
what ye get wen ye get married haha id like to no that,matter a fact kicked out the door at 17 to live yer on lives becos yer causing to much hassel to yer mothers and fathers,look were travllers this is our thing and funky weddings is urs,so keep it that way ye freaks,now go like a good educated person and mind year only bussines getting yers nose into something that were yer noses dont fit,
thanks angel
good talk out u 2.
miss mc donagh
travller to the back bone
and very fucking proud.
Her father did’t keep her in school. Being educated enough to spell & get a normal job is worth far more than a 20K wedding dress. I suspect that this is true throughout the ‘traveller’ community as poor spelling seems to crop up on all traveller’s ‘rants’ on this page
dats ok miss

Hi there
I make dresses for travellers and I wish you people would give them a break, what is wrong with us why we cannot accept people’s cultures for what they are. Yes they are over the top and are extremely luxurious but so are some ‘normal’ brides, why was jordan acceptable but no one else, I try hard for the travellers because only a few people will deal with them, in the beginning it was hard but now I bend over backwards to ensure that they got what they want and I do not abuse them and overcharge them. They are great people and are better than some of the people that have written and left disgusting comments on this site and the lady in Liverpool did not make Missy’s dress. But I can do that to anyone who is interested. Swarovskis, cotching, roses, butterflies, whatever that is my game and I love it.
Let people live, if you can’t say good say nothing.
hello EMILY that makes the dresses how can i get hold of ya me sister wont to no if u wood make her a dress tanku

Angel email me on majestybridal@googlemail.com
The (irish & proud) after your name wasn’t really needed was it?
The little girl in gold is the most offensive picture. You can just see it in her eyes, she knows that this is wrong and that in a few short years, it will be her teenage wedding to another teenager and she will be bearing children long before her 20’s and thus perpetuate this lifestyle.
Children are meant to be children and meant to be educated until they are young adults when they can at least understand the choices they can make regarding their own life and how they wish to live it. These kids have no choices, they know they will end up in some wedding long before they turn 20 and they will have more kids and more incredibly sexist celebrations.
My biggest problem with these weddings is the lack of choices. If a child is removed from school at age 9, what kind of future will she have? She has to marry, she certainly isn’t educated enough to get a job, or at least a decent job where she could support herself without being married off so young.
Okay the disturbing part for me is the very young children dressed so skimpy. That is the part that I don’t like. As far as everything else I think some comments here are very mean. Yes this is tacky but there is no need to call these people stupid etc. The couple looks happy and we should just wish them the best. I am from the US so I don’t know much about “travelers” so I can’t comment on them, but there seems to be a lot of hate and resentment towards them. I don’t like to discriminate people based on their ethnicity or culture. This is definitely gaudy but I don’t call people trash by their clothing or style but by how they treat others. If someone is a good person that is all I care about. I wouldn’t call them trash or jerks based on how much tule, makeup and rhinestones they wear. For me trash are the mean people in the world that hurt others and are cruel… even if they dress nicely and have expensive things. Bottomline: enjoy the pictures and laugh a little since it is quite a spectacle, but there is no need to be mean about it.
Ok can I just start with the word “Tacky”? How is a wedding “tacky” exactly? Tacky means sticky. Is the bride sticky? Did the guests have glue or some other such substance poured over them on their way to the church? Please, go to offbeatbride.com and look up the tacky article. Educate yourselves. Actually, no. Don’t go there. You’d bring too much hate.
Yes, the bride’s dress is revealing, but no worse than some “celebrities” who marry in bikinis, people who marry in Princess Leia ’slave-girl’ costumes, and some of the more traditional “etheral” (ie SEE-THROUGH) dresses people wear.
There is an over-use of fake tan (in MY opinion, other people would think it fabulous), make-up etc, but again, I’ve seen plenty of wedding magazine shoots where the bride looks like a painted clown. Also, goth weddings anyone? Even the men will wear make-up then!
The little girls dressed in unreasonably skimpy outfits, ok, yes, this is fundamentally wrong, but it’s nothing to do with traveller culture, it is the culture of modern western society, and something I see walking down the street on a daily basis (little girls with slogans across the bum of their jeans anyone?).
I found this wedding not to my taste. In fact, I find most weddings not to my taste and I’m sure my wedding won’t be to the taste of everyone on the planet/internet/local area/hell possibly even some of my guests!
It’s quite scary to see how vemonous people have been toward the travelling community. Yes, taking little girls out of school early to protect their purity seems insane, I have a grá (Irish for love btw) for education, reading and the adventure of discovering so it makes me sad that these girls miss out on that.
However, I’ve known a few travelling families and I have to say that they were so sweet. They left NO rubbish when they moved on, took fantastic care of their homes, eachother and their animals, and NOTHING was stolen from the area, not so much as a rusty bucket!!
Also, this thing of commenting on the brides weight… This is a SIXTEEN year old girl that you’re all talking about. SIXTEEN! I suppose everyone here was just perfect at that age. All supermodels I guess. Speaking as someone who has been hospitalised for anorexia can I just say that this is possibly the most damaging part of this entire thread of comments? You can comment on the outfits, the make-up, the decor etc but my God leave the girls waistline out of it!! Do you go onto other sites and tease the morbidly obese brides too?
In conclusion, I’d like to say that the aim of this site (to my understanding) is to post pictures of random weddings and for everyone to have a giggle at the elements that are not the their taste. It is NOT for looking down on others, it is NOT for making personal attacks on other people/cultures.
Oh, and I’m Irish, NOT a Traveller, very well educated and well-off. Life has nothing, I repeat, NOTHING to do with your income, choice of lifestyle or the clothes you wear, it is how you treat other people. So there’s a lot of you, Travellers and settled folk alike, who ought to be hanging your heads in shame over the way you have spoken of, and to, complete strangers here.
I find it rather disconcerting when someone who labels themselves as being ‘well educated’ and tells everyone else to get an education – without having a clue what they’re talking about.

tack⋅y
2 /ˈtæki/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [tak-ee] Show IPA
–adjective, tack⋅i⋅er, tack⋅i⋅est.
1. not tasteful or fashionable; dowdy.
2. shabby in appearance; shoddy: a tacky, jerry-built housing development.
3. crass; cheaply vulgar; tasteless; crude.
4. gaudy; flashy; showy.
If anyone has been (as you term) ‘vemonous’(!) on this thread, I’d say your little diatribe is right up there.
Your accusations of people ‘making personal attacks towards others’ is a little misguided, considering you’ve attacked people for voicing their own opinion. Whatever happened to free-speech? Has it morphed into ‘you’re allowed free-speech, so long as you agree with me’?
I personally think the bride’s figure doesn’t suit that style of dress. The whole wedding reminds me of s six year old’s idea of pantomime costumes, in fact. I’m not sorry if you don’t like it.
Your experience of travellers is completely the opposite of my experiences, by the way. I’ve had cars stolen, laundry go missing from my washing line, been intimidated by their kids, seen a woman attacked by grown men for her shopping bags, seen their horses and donkeys so malnourished that they can barely stand up, and a ton of rubbish left behind every time they’ve been moved on. A family member (who works for the DSS) tells me that a huge number of travellers have all sorts of claims for state benefits under multiple names, despite not contributing towards taxes. No wonder they can afford their dream weddings. I guess you’ve been luckier than the majority of people. Good for you, I say!
I think you’re getting ‘travellers’ mixed up with the old-fashioned ‘Romanies’.
What I can’t get over is the fact that she wants to be a fashion model and yet she has a stomach like a woman who’s given birth to triplets. Hell she could of still been chav-tastic yet not shown off her lumpy puppy fat. If she had of worn an actual dress and not been frosted over like a bad 80’s ‘princess Barbie’, she would of probably looked wonderful. I just hope that both her and her husband are happy together.
No, she wants to be a glamour model – lad’s mags, page 3 etc.
pls tell me wot the fuk is tacky about this xxxxxxxx
Everything.
Listen, I came upon this site for the weddings and I have to say, I’m raised in the U.S. and while I don’t know any Irish travellers, I do know some Romanychil. In fact, I’m married to one. We live the same sort of travelling life as the Irish.
I thing you’re confusing style (Irish girls it’s funny how you’re all the way over there and you guys like all the stuff our girls do!) and culture with personal values. We love the Lord and put our family before anyone. My kids are respectable and will finish school, others don’t. There is more than one way to live and just because you don’t
agree doesn’t give you the right to trash people.
I think she looks like a tramp and as a Catholic I am offended that this behavior was accepted in a Catholic church!
Are those boobs for real?!
Cause this wedding sure seems like a hoax!
are her boobs real? cos her mums definitely are not!!!
i dont no wot ur problems is if it ant ur wedding then u ant got nank to worry about if dat how she wonted it and if u was irish travller u wood under stand but u aint and chanel r u married to a irish boy ? xxxxxxx
P.S….MISSY U LOOKS LOVELY DONT LISTEN TO ENY1 ELSE ABOUT ENYTHING DIFFRENT XXXXXXX
I’d hit it… great rack!
Sadly though Twon would hit on him
Hi there ladies
To all of you who have asked me to make wedding dresses for you at sensible prices and not ripping travellers off. I make them with swarovski crystals, hoops, panniers, can can, best woman any design, please contact the people here at Tacky Weddings and I will send you my brochure.
I am not into exploiting travellers or ripping them off, Missy’s dress was so much money and it cost nowhere near what she paid for it, I made many mistakes in the beginning because the travellers were so full of adventure I could not keep up, but I promise you your dresses will be classy, not tacky, not copied or used by anybody else totally exclusive I have an excellent team and the stones do not come off, I limit the amount I make as each dress takes weeks to make and usually at short notice, each to his own and I wish you all the best.
Emily
Hi there
For all of you that have wanted me to make dresses for your weddings please contact tacky weddings and they will contact me.
We give travellers the best at excellent prices, big skirts, swarovskis, can can, best woman, mini brides the lot and we do not charge the earth.
Contact tacky brides and we do the best we can, at least 8 weeks notice please.
EMILY
You need to learn to spell you bunch of pikeys! You look like trash, are trash and the need to do some serious sit ups on your flabby belly!
Trailer trash through and through! Wheres the Jerry Springer show?
Oh my god even the bridesmaids are fat!!!
Isn’t it illegal to not attend school until you’re 16? Hmmm, dropped out at nine eh…
Traveller gal – I like how you hypocritically describe us as “low life” but you’re saying YOU would “leave us dead” because we’re having a bit of a laugh about we all feel are amazingly awful wedding outfits!
Would you really kill someone because they don’t like what you’re wearing?
Unbelievable.
I know you think you’re above the law, you’re arrogant enough to think that it doesn’t apply to you, but you’d better believe that all the time you’re in our country, then you have to obey our laws, whether you like it or not.
If you don’t like it, feel free to exercise your right to leave.
Until then, laugh we will. Unlike murder, it’s not a crime to have an opinion.
kiss my arse
I’d rather do a bushtucker trial, ta anyway.
Keep talking, you’re funny!
1. The dress and whole damn thing is gross and tacky and foul.
2. There must be a child protection issue about the state of those kids – any paedo or similar who saw those kids in the street would have had a field day.
3. There is nothing wrong with being a traveller, but traveller’s don’t help their cause when being threatening etc., as in above posts. Just accept most people in the UK don’t like this wedding and forget about it. You are proud of retaining your own culture and not being infuenced by mainstream folk, fine. Do what you want to do, but don’t get nasty when others don’t like it.
Well said Grace. You’ve summed up how I feel in a nutshell.
“well, if ya f**king hate pikeys why on earth you come on to this web site…..?!?!?.can ya answer that.”
I can answer that on behalf of an awful lot of people, CHANTELLE. This is a website dedicated to trashy weddings – NOT to the decent, honest, hardworking, law abiding, taxpaying, award-winning neighbours called the Traveller community that you are proud to belong to ***
***I may have made up some of this last sentence.
We come here to take the p1ss, have a laugh at the hideous ‘costumes’ you lot seem to think are classy and generally marvel at how you all manage to out-tack each other in the wedding stakes.
I’m still laughing at one of the pikey bride’s kids names – “Hannah Montanna McDonough”.
Crikey, I’d pay good money to access the content on this fabulous website!
this wedding is absaloutley handsome and anyone that says anything different definitley has no style what so ever.
The girl has a lovely figure on her and people saying shes fat u want to be taking a look in the mirror at yourselfes before you judge others.
I admit that this wedding doesn’t represent my taste, but I’m absolutely shocked by some of the comments here. Most of them are written under the assumption that this family consists of criminals and most of them are highly discriminating. Let me remind you that this was a private function, and was an important event in somebody’s life. It was probably never meant for the internet in the first place, and I’m sad on behalf of the family that this occasion is being trashed the way it is.
But since it ended up here anyway, couldn’t you just have had your chuckle and leave it at that?
I have only one question for those who have commented: how much class do you think you are displaying here?
The comments from the traveller girls are so classy, and I’m sure most of us would agree that they in no way reinforce the stereotypical traveller do they?
I’m certain all the negative comments are just born of jealousy…
The groom & the father of the ‘bride’ look very similar – do these people not realise that it’s illegal to marry your brother. I like her clown lipstick too!
ur all jelous of are missy cos yas all no ya cant afford a lovly dress and missy ant fat so u divvy gal dat sed she is needs to get ya eyes tested m8 befor u go callin gals fat and tilly who eva u r wot eva have u cum on here talkin de mik out of da lil gals names ur wicked to da poor gals u need to lookat ur own name its sound lil a rottern cats name!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You don’t know my financial situation angel cash, I’d just rather live in a house than spend my money on acres of flammable man-made fabric that would only get worn for a couple of hours. Frankly, I’d wear a pair of jeans to get married in if that dress was the only alternative. It’s called having a choice. Jealousy is something else entirely and you’re barking up the wrong tree in levelling that old chestnut at me!
Maybe it’s you who’s jealous of us? Psychologists call it ‘projecting’.
As you’re so interested, Tilly is short for Matilda. Much better than Spongebob Squarepants McDonough, but to each his own!
all me cusons have de last name mcdonagh so wot ya on bout love and how cood any1 be jelous of sum dirty lil ride like urself y have u cum on ere talkin bout missys dress enyways ?
Dirty? Pot, kettle, black! lmao! Last time I noticed, they didn’t put baths into caravans.
I’m posting on here because it’s a PUBLIC forum on the internet. I know you’re struggling with your English language love, but it’s not that difficult to grasp is it? If you need more help on that one, I can post on any public internet forum I like. I don’t have to get your permission regarding where I post and what I say, and you don’t get to tell me I can’t.
Oh yeah, seeing as you’ve done nothing but insult me, I’m letting you know that I’m not going to be judged by anyone half my age, especially some gobby robbing little mucker. OK?
Oh look, it’s 1.20am. Your cousin/uncle’s waiting for you. NFO, there’s a good kid.
The girls come in with their mums and the mums always insist on the girls covering up, they are religious and see this as a sign of disrespect in front of the Priest. I know there has been swearing on the site but the travellers were insulted first and they are close knit and if you hurt one you hurt the other. When they come in I am sworn to secrecy about the dress and friends come in and do enquire as they want to know but you cannot talk. The dress is every traveller girls dream.
EMILY
Emily: “I know there has been swearing on the site but the travellers were insulted first and they are close knit and if you hurt one you hurt the other.”
That’s all well and good Emily, and I can understand your position, but respect has to go both ways
We can’t all like everything and we should be allowed to say so without being insulted.
From now on, I’m going to speak as I’m spoken to. I really don’t care if it offends anyone. That’s the problem with being English and living in England, we’re meant to sit back and take everything that’s thrown at us. We’re not allowed to say anything in case we offend some other nationality or race etc. If that’s not racism, I don’t know what is.
I have to give people like angel cash credit though, I thought her little dig at me was funny – in a hypocritical sort of way, obviously!
This is a clear cut case for EUGENICS if ever there was one – for you thick pikeys Eugenics is a philosophy where the scum of society are forcibly sterolised to prevent them breeding yet more scum. Any racism they encounter they bring upon themselves as its a well known fact that they are all thieves and benefit cheats and have no respect for ordinary people or their property. I’d round them all up , put them in a concentration camp , and dispose of them , thus making the world a better place!
I can’t believe there are actually pikeys typing on a computer!!! Who’s house did they break into to use a computer?? I’m sick of their thieving ways and their incest and child prostitutes.
as ya say im half ur age grow up u dirty ride and get a life if u was a irish or english travller u wood no how we like da weddings so if it aint u wearing it y ever r u commenting on missys pikture u aint gotta wear it or look at it have ya so y dnt ya go do 1 u soppy woman ANGEL CASH
IRISH TRAVLLER AND PROUND xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I am entitled to comment on the photos you thick bint, they were sold to the newspaper. It’s a free country (you should know that better than most!). You really should get over yourself and stop your whining, gobshite.
Hi Tilly
In one breath I was saying the travellers are very religious and then I backtracked and referred to their swearing on the site. But there were about 20 comments, the majority of which were insulting before the travellers started to respond. There is even one comment on one of these pages where the brides sister simply says ‘Yes the bride is a traveller, she is my sister Margaret’. No swearing or nothing. That bride and the bridesmaids have been torn apart by people on this site and that was all the sister said.
They will defend one another, they have their issues amongst themselves but what we are doing on this site is slagging of people and talking like these people are nothing, that is out of order, I am not english so the stiff upper lip business does not come into it, I give as much as I get. what I am saying is talk to the individual and not class the travellers as a hole. I have gone back and read some of these comments here on site and they are bad Tilly we are talking about real people. Look back and read, I am not saying we are to justify their comments and the threats, but some of what has been said about them is bad and unfortunately being a website people can write what they want and disappear, on a one to one basis I do not think many people will respond in the same way.
I know some of the girls that I have made dresses for have been a nightmare and they turn and get nasty and the parents and the aunts and to tell the truth I have thrown a couple of people out my shop without their dresses as some of them are out of order, but there are some that are brilliant and I would work with them and anybody again and again and again, just charge them more money for my grey hairs.
EMILY
Emily:
“what I am saying is talk to the individual and not class the travellers as a hole. I have gone back and read some of these comments here on site and they are bad Tilly we are talking about real people”
I understand why you’re saying that to me, but this equally could be put to a few of the gypsys who have been threatening those of us who weren’t leaving nasty comments. That’s what I mean by respect going both ways. I’m a relative latecomer to this thread and haven’t even read the comments you mentioned, let alone posted them!
Maybe that makes me as bad as them but at least I’ve not threatened anyone/sworn at anyone(yet!)/or got personal. I’m not going to bother being polite to people who lay into me, I’m nobody’s punchbag and I refuse to be intimidated. That doesn’t make me spiteful, just human.
I do wonder why people bother to come on this website if they consider the wedding not tacky!
People have mentioned the photo’s aren’t ours to comment on but I disagree. The bride must have given permission for the Daily Mail to publish them (maybe she even got paid for it). In that case, the pictures are in the public domain – which means everyone’s entitled to comment, whether it’s good or bad, whether the bridal party likes it or not. They can’t have it all ways.
See Tilly you lot have even get me doing it now ‘hole’ instead of ‘whole’. I see every point but I think now it has just got out of hand and you are taking the brunt for everyone.
The truth is that you did not start the insults you just got involved somewhere down the line, OMG, this is worst than Scarface! Yes I have reread the posts and you have come in late, read through when you have time, if you can be bothered and look at some of the ghastly comments that have been made before the travellers start to type, some of them are out of order and to be honest I cannot believe that the editors allow some of the exchanges to take place.
You are foul AndyPlaya. What an abhorrent and vile thing to suggest. You are no better than a Nazi and a war criminal. You are inciting race hatred and genocide which the civilised world rejects and prosecutes, which is exactly what should happen to you. Incidentally, you can’t even spell ’sterilise’ which makes me question your intellectual capacity. Shame on you. Go and read about the Holocaust you Nazi scum.
tilly ur not a irish travller so u dnt no wot we like and we dnt care wot u tink bout r weedings we gotta have it as da bext day of r life cos were only gonna get married once unlike u probley bin married 6 times and got 4 children by all diffrent dads we aint like dat 1 marrige and 1 man xxxxxx
I’ll leave the teenage shagging and teenage motherhood to you lot. Seems it’s all you lot do – the men know how to rob and the rough old teenage girls just lay on their backs and hump like rabbits. Kids having kids. 16 year old children having babies when they haven’t finished being kids themselves. It’s probably a bit like throwing a sausage down an alley by the time you’re 20. All worn out and saggy. Yuck. Very nice. Don’t you aspire to doing something more with your lives before being tied to nappies and midnight feeds? Relying on your men thieving off innocent people and robbing the state benefits to feed and clothe yourselves? That would have been my idea of a living hell at 16. Bringing an innocent baby into that miserable, stinking, immoral environment is nothing short of child abuse.
I’m married to ONE man (yes – for LIFE!) and we don’t have kids yet so you cocked up that rather piss-poor attempt at insulting me!
how can u tilly slag a 16 year old gal off bout how she looks thats just wicked and ur not normal in da head i have nown missy for a very very long time and belive me we r good mates and on me mams life shes a lovly gal and she dnt go round slaggin ppl off like u do cos she has a life with a handsum husband so leave da gal alone,,

and we dnt go on website of a 16 year old gal slaggin dem off if we have sank to say we say it to dere face and have a fair fite but u just come on ere slaggin dem off and woodnt say it to are faces wood ya
I didn’t slag anyone off, you cretin. Read my comments before accusing people of crap like that. You’re the one slagging people off, not me. I’m slagging you off NOW because you’re getting on my tits with your twatting hypocrisy and boring-as-hell over-reactions. You might like to pretend you’re still in the school playground but I’m not. If you want to accuse anyone of anything, get your facts straight first, you freak.
And no, I would not have a problem saying any of this to your face. Like I said before, you don’t intimidate me, I’ve scraped scarier stuff off my shoe.
i hav read ur comment bout how tacky missy gal looks and da only person im slagging off is u cos ur to saucy and needs a beat by sum1 to prove ur not all wot u think u r and how am i a freak u need to get ur storys or comment rite mate befor u start callin people a freak thats a wicked word u woodnt go ova to sum1 and call dem a freak no wood ya so cos ya tink ur all hard cos we can only say stuff on ere but ur not hard at all ur probly scared to deff ritin wot ya wrtin out !!!!!!!!!!!
So that’s what all this is about is it? All because I said I think the wedding looks ‘tacky’? You’re something else! The photos are on a website called TACKYWEDDINGS.COM ffs!
I didn’t invite a national newspaper to take and publish photos of the wedding. It was the bride/bride’s family who forced the photos into the public domain (doubtless to make money from it) and when they did that, they opened the wedding to scruitiny from everyone.
I’m guessing that you think it’s acceptable for people to say how stunning the bride looked, but anyone who says otherwise is open to insults and threats?
When you grow up and put your reasonable head on, hopefully you’ll get used to the fact that everyone is entitled to have an opinion. No amount of threats, insults or foot-stomping will ever alter that. It’s not as if I said they look like they all stink of fetid fish and the bride’s face looks like a bowl of sick, or that the whole lot of them look like retarded scuzzy hedge-pigs at a chimps tea party, is it? No, all I said was ‘tacky’.
If you think it’s ok to threaten to ‘beat’ everyone who disagrees with you, all you’re doing is proving to the world that the idea of pikeys being a sub-human, out-of-control race is 100% correct.
I really don’t care that you don’t like that I think the wedding looks like a tack-fest, it’s my opinion, you’ll never change my mind, so deal with it.
oh get ova ur self go lay ur head down u fuckin dirty whore of a gorja cunt
u tinks ur all hard u gammy bitch
Well done angel cash, your IQ is officially as high as your age. Is that the best you can do? Swear and insult people? Knowing a few swear words doesn’t make you hard, clever or funny.
and tilly i need to get dis strate dont tink u can cum on ere talkin bout missy gal if u was a travlleing gal u wood understand but ur not so go do 1
Wrong. I can come on here and say what I like about who I like. It’s none of your business. If you don’t like it, “do 1″ yourself.
So Emma you think that I’m “Nazi scum” , which actually I’m NOT , but I am a law-abiding tax paying working citizen who also has a driving licence and pays road tax – unlike most pikies.
£100,000 is a hell of a lot of money to spend on a wedding , and I’d like to to know where the brides father (who is only in his mid thirties) came by such a large amount.
Most probably it was generated by fleecing pensioners out of their life savings for unnecessary work on their property , which is the usual pikey modus operandi , and I’m sure no tax was paid on it either.
The level of bad language and violence in the travellers comments on this forum is simply shocking , even more so the fact that they’re from women , no wonder civilized society sees them as animals.
Do you women have no dreams or ambitions?
Its pretty sad that in the 21st century a group of women are resigned to being illiterate baby making machines totally dependent on men and living as slaves.
By the way , what is a “gorja” and a “buffer”??
I don’t care how much tax you pay Andy. When you promote eugenics and forcible sterilisation you are subscribing to supremacist racist rhetoric. That also goes for talking about ’sub-human races’ Tilly. The right to freedom of speech is always limited by a refusal to condone hate speech. That was too far and too much.
Please read my comments in context, Emma. You will find that I’m not actually accusing anyone of being sub-human, literally that the poster is giving the impression that that is the case with their death threats, violent behaviour and foul language. Remember that these comments are being left by children. What sort of people display that sort of behaviour in front of their children? Their children had to learn it from somewhere. I consider that to be a form of child-abuse. It’s what I feel to be animalistic (therefore sub-human) behaviour. It wasn’t hate speech and I resent your accusations of it being so because you’ve turned it into just that.
I take it that you condone their issuing death threats, considering you’ve not complained about it to them?
God where’s Hitler when you need him!?
The usual characteristics of your average pikey: lurcher dog on a bit of string , brand new 4×4 , stealing old people’s life savings for replacing one roof tile , more sovereign rings than they have fingers , sex with your own sister , unintelligable language (it aint English and it aint Oirish , its just pikey!) with every other word “fuck” , bare knuckle fighting , shopping at Lidl , illiterate.
Actually , fair play to Tony Martin – he’s the chap who caught a couple of pikies burgling his farmhouse and let them have both barrels of a shotgun (unfortunately only one of them died).
Go Tony Go Tony Go Tony….
WTF!!! I think these people are prostitutes or porn stars. What kind of morals do these people have? There are very young kids there!
What’s the matter with you people???
tilly we have weedings like this cos we have money unlike u,,,and we do pay for stuff unlike u lil wannabes,,,xxxxxx oh and merry xmas every1 xxxxxxxxx
Only common people talk about money. Besides, if I mention any savings you lot will be round to break a couple of roof tiles and rip me off a small fortune to fix them, probably from somebody elses roof, and then I’ll need a proper roofer to fix it.
As for wannabes, you all copy chavvy Jordan’s wedding. Missy wants to be another Jordan. You’re going to be disappointed though, Jordan has more money and more class (I never thought I’d say Jordan and class in the same sentence) than all you gypsies put together.
a gorja is some1 who aint a irish or english travller xxxx
What does gorja mean?
and yer we have r own languag and u dnt see us being interbreeds thats mre like americans that go round haveing sex with there cusons or brothers not us travllers dnt xxx

email me if u got a snotty problem i would loveeee to tell u all about it
tilly,
irish kids having kids?? i think your a little mistaken, look at the population of the kids in england at 12-19 having kids. and the men robbing and all sorts, you obv dont no anything at all about the irish travellers… we all know that this girls wedding was WAAAYYYY over the top.. but is that any reason to slag someone off? you obv like diffrent things, look at the state of jordons.. and she’s english. look at your own kind of ppl first b4 our go around TRYING to slag the irish off, we work and worked hard for your country only to get ppl like you to slag us off for it.
england has every culture and every other country inside itself.. ireland is a irish mans country, we say who comes, we are the boss of our country… yet you let yours go to shit
No I’m not mistaken. At least we don’t pretend it’s right that children should procreate. You seriously can’t preach to us about people ‘robbing’ and not see the irony! We work hard for our country too, we work hard so our taxes can keep you and get spent on cleaning up after you when you’ve been moved on. You’re misguided if you think that all the violence in Ireland means you’re the boss. What kind of life is that to want to live? Why is beating the crap out of people or killing someone a good thing? ‘Your’ country isn’t quite as perfect as you would like us to believe, you can keep it. In fact, if it’s that good, why not live there yourselves? Why are you in England at all if it’s so shit?
‘the boss of our country’ you don’t have a government then? Tilly has a point though – if Ireland is such a utopian (look it up) promise land why are you here. I would also have thought that a country as great as Ireland would have a great education system, so everybody could read & write to a basic standard……Hello….
lve your dress xxxxxx

[...] I missed this first time round OMG! Outer limits TACKY 150k wedding for UK 16 year old girl! Ugliest dress EVER! All things heinous, tra… [...]
OK, this is a serious question from someone who knows nothing about travellers…
Why do unmarried virgins or married-for-life housewives need enormous fake tits? And if such value is placed on female purity, why are young girls (or married women, for that matter) dressed so revealingly? And how do you reconcile traditional values with being a “glamour model”?
I’m not trying to be insulting, just honestly don’t understand.
i think you are all jelouse of dis girl im a english travler for 1 pikey is racist and i dont no who the fuck u people are calling little girls prostitutes i think they look hansome and as for trailer trash give me a break most young travling get married young and they all last they dont go around having anything that fuking walks you people dont no what the fuck you are going on about and i dont no that girl but i would love to have the wedding she had so why dont you all big mouth fukers fuk off becoz u dont no shit
Why is the term pikey racist but buffer, gorja and whatever else you call us perfectly acceptable to use? You want everything your own way. If you can’t take it, don’t dish it out.
Why can’t any of you good honest travelling folk spell? Quite frankly…..it’s embarrassing.
Here’s a little tip maryann. They are to the left of the ‘M’ key, one is a comma & the other a full-stop. They stop you sounding like a f**k-witted lady-oaf when you type inane nonsense. Just a thought X
i think it was stunning looking..best of look to the two of them Oh F the haters
I’m not a traveller but i’m a strict catholic and i believe in no sex before marriage. It pisses me off that the traveller girls are generalising and saying all country girls are sluts. WE ARE NOT. There is good and bad in every race. As for those mocking the travellers such as mak (you are an asshole)you should try and have respect for other peoples culture which is encapsulated by this wedding which may seem tacky to us but weddings are all about personal choice. it might be funny to look at but calling the poor girl fat is just mean. she has curves like a real woman! By the way girls i live near liverpool and the place where all the travellers go to get their dresses made is called Nico – http://www.nicoliverpool.co.uk

i think that the people that are laughing and mocking this girl are sad to be honest i think your only against it because you dont understand it,, but its everyone to their own and if it isnt harming you then what is your problem??
you dont know the girl or her family so to say their moneys came from not paying their tax’s or whatever that is stereo typing these people.
your all just making presumptions,, and yes maybe it is over the top but personally i do think she is lovely lookin ,, an as for the people saying she’s fat i really dont know what you’s are looking at because i think shes made like a doll there’s not one thing wrong with her and she’s a very lucky girl to have such a grand wedding
i also think you should all carry on because you’s are foolish because while you’s all waste your time on here slagging the poor girl she’ll be sitting in her nice £18,000 ”trailer” with her husband getting on with her life like i think maybe some of you lot should try doing!!?? eeehhh???
I’m with AndyPlaya. After reading this entire page so far, it seems like enforced sterilisation is indeed the best route. What ethical doctor does beast enhncements on teen girls?! These “travellers” are positively medieval in their outlook and the laughable phrase “traveller culture” is an oxymoron at best. They’re certainly no more enlightened about their womenfolk than the Islamics, even if the costumes are a bit different. I feel sorry for the few REAL British people who are still left, trapped in the UK paying and punishing taxes (with no rights of self-defense) so that others can live on welfare and rip off the state. Poor old England!
How revolting!
This is the fall of humanity today. Wow…..just…..how do these people let their children dress up like little sluts???? I need a cold drink….
errm id be really ashamed i mean them 2 le kids and all the stupid dresses does not look cool it just looks common
Pikey mother says to Pikey daughter the night before her wedding:
“When you are married he’ll want to put his most prized possession into where you pee”
daugher replies:
“Don’t be silly mother, he’ll never get that transit van in the sink!!”
“y de fuk ye on this page ye are all mental jealous”
I’m NOT making this up – the above line cut & pasted from an above post. What does it mean? Who knows? Who cares? Very amusing though.
The cider-fuelled rants of a mad lady-oaf – brilliant – please keep the comments (& wedding photos) coming
