Cancelling a wedding can be heartbreaking, and will be a very emotional time for everyone involved.
Particularly if your name is Susan and you had the wedding of a lifetime planned.
A woman, who gives her name only as Susan, was hoping to hold a wedding that would put the Kardashians to shame, The Mirror reports.
The only catch for potential guests was that attending the "once-in-a-lifetime" party would have had a huge impact on their bank balance.
And her entire, very angry rant, including all the unbelievable details, was shared on MumsNet .
Susan starts by apologising for cancelling her wedding at such short notice. She admits that she and her partner have broken up due to "recent and irreparable" problems.
What follows is a full explanation of what has gone wrong.
Susan writes: "How did this all come crashing down? Well, I invite you all on Facebook - players, bystanders and side characters of the people in my life - to take a seat and listen.
"You're all involved somehow, somehow everyone is wrapped into this mess. Even if you weren't invited to my wedding, I don't care."
She reveals things were like a "fairytale" at first.
Susan met the love of her life at 14, they worked on her family's farm and with "each warm summer spent in the fields" their love grew.
At 18 he put a ring on her finger. At 20 they had their first child.
Fast forward a few years and they are preparing for their dream wedding, having saved up $15,000 (around £13,500).
But to have the "blow out" party wedding they wanted, they would need $60,000 (about £46,700) in total, so they turned to friends and family for help.
She wrote: "I SPECIFICALLY, I mean SPECIFICALLY, asked for cash gifts. How could we have OUR wedding that WE dreamed of without proper funding?
"We'd sacrificed so much and only asked each guest for around $1,500. We talked to a few people who even promised us more to make our dream come true.
"My maid of honour pledged $5,000 along with her planning services. We tearfully thanked and accepted.
"My ex's family offered to contribute $3,000.
"We made it CLEAR, if you couldn't contribute, you weren't invited to our exclusive wedding. It's a once-in-a-lifetime party."
So they sent out RSVPs and only eight people replied. Susan was "livid".
She continued: "How was this supposed to happen [without] a little help from our friends. To make matters worse my ex's family took back their offer.
"Suddenly more people backed out, INCLUDING THE C*** MAID OF HONOUR. MY BEST FRIEND SINCE CHILDHOOD. MY SECOND FAMILY. I was so shocked."
In a desperate last attempt they sent out invites to the wedding a second time and set up a GoFundMe page - but only managed to scrape together another $250.
Susan was losing all hope of achieving her dream - especially when her ex offered to skip the big wedding and have a "cheap, raggedy, filthy whore" ceremony in Vegas.
She was outraged.
"I just wanted to be a Kardashian for a day and then live my life like normal," she explained.
Things kept getting worse for Susan - her partner "started gossiping about her with her friends", he started staying out late and she thinks he may even have cheated on her.
Ultimately she realised the only thing to do was to get away from it all.
So instead of getting married, she decided to go backpacking across South America for the two months to rid herself of the "toxic energy".

She added: "I need to get away from this awful society. How hard would it have been to f***ing donate friends? Do I matter to you?
"Friendly reminder, don't think you own me. I am cutting all of you snakes off. I am living my life alone now."
Unsurprisingly the post elicited strong reactions on MumsNet.
One mum wrote: "That's just so over the top, it's positively jaw dropping."
Another said: "Bloody hell Susan!! Reign it in!!"
