Local TV station Kare 11 notes that the wedding invitation had cited no children could attend so the couple didn’t go.

This week they received a bill for what they would have eaten where they there.

Baker told Kare 11: ”You’ve got to be kidding me. It listed we would have had two herb-crusted walleye and there was also a service and tax charge.”

The total came to $75.90 (€68).

The note with the bill reads: ”This cost reflects the amount paid by the bride and groom for meals that were RSVP’d for, reimbursement and explanation for no show, card, call or text would be appreciated.”

Baker said she doesn’t intend to pay the bill.

It has been shared over 2,300 times since Kare 11 posted it to Facebook.
