A vendor has publicly called out a newlywed couple for allegedly taking a wedding gown on credit for their ceremony and refusing to pay months after, sparking outrage on social media.
The incident, which has since gone viral, was brought to light through a series of posts made by the vendor. She accused the bride of being the “first to make a wedding dress without payment and still refuse to pay three months after the wedding,” despite multiple attempts to recover the money.
According to the vendor, she had originally designed the wedding gown, but a bride-to-be expressed interest in wearing it for her special day.
Due to financial constraints, the bride reportedly pleaded with the vendor to allow her to take the dress on credit, making a promise to settle the payment soon after the wedding.
The bride allegedly assured the vendor that she would pay using money received from cash sprays during the ceremony, claiming she had no other gown to wear for the occasion.
However, the vendor claims that after the bride received the dress, both she and her husband, along with their family—who had earlier begged for the gown—completely stopped communicating with her, refusing to make payments as agreed.
Expressing her frustration over the matter, the vendor shared details of her ordeal in a series of posts:
“Before I post am, you know how many people wey reach out to her and her husband to pay me? You know how many calls and messages??”
“Up to 3 and half months now and she only deposited $50 for a wedding dress. I made the dress with my own money, and just 7 days before the wedding, they started begging me to release it.”
“Her entire family was calling me from Liberia, pleading with me to send her the dress because she didn’t have any other option. I reminded her about my money, and she reassured me that once she got sprayed with cash at the wedding, she would pay me immediately. I agreed.”
“I sent the dress to Liberia, and immediately after they received it, all of them stopped talking to me. The couple is based in the USA, but they are Liberians. I called so many times, but the husband refused to pick up. I sent messages, but nobody responded.”
“I had no choice but to start exposing them on Snapchat. It wasn’t until people who knew them reached out that they finally agreed to pay half of the money. They only did this because they thought I had no power since I’m Nigerian and not from their country.”
Frustrated by their continued refusal to pay the balance, the vendor took to social media to call them out, labeling them as deceitful and dishonest for their actions.
