Is She An A**hole For Saying No Wedding Until His Teeth Are Straight Since She Doesn’t Want His “Bad Teeth” In The Photos

Is She Wrong for Postponing the Wedding Until His Braces Are Removed?

A woman recently posted in an Am I The A**Hole (AITA) subthread on Reddit asking if she was in the wrong for pushing their wedding date back because of her fiance’s adult braces.

The original poster (OP) is getting married, and like any woman, she wants her special day to be perfect. She’s nervous the photos won’t be nice to look at because her fiance has braces.

She asked, “Did you ever see a groom wear braces in his wedding photos? I don’t think so.”

When the fiance was a child, he was afraid he would be bullied and ridiculed for having braces, so he always avoided them.
