Outrage as bride in G-string twerks, gives lap dance to groom: 'Where's the respect?'

'I’m sorry but showing your butt to everyone at your own wedding is definitely not it,' a Twitter user schooled the 'naughty' bride

A bride from Florida is going viral all over social media for twerking for her groom and even offering him a seductive lap dance in front of all the guests. The bride, who has been identified as Rochelle, can be seen in the viral video clip wearing nothing but a shimmery thong and a completely backless dress. She then twerks and gyrates in a suggestive manner before settling down for a lap dance as her husband sits on a chair. 

While Rochelle's video garnered over 3 million views within a day, social media users did not hold back on shaming the bold bride. "nah doing a lap dance routine for your husband wearing next to nothing in front of his closest friends and both your families is beyond ghetto lmaooo that’s not even the right word to define it yet I can’t even quantify how wildly tacky this is," a user tweeted, slamming the twerking bride.

While lap dances are becoming increasingly popular as a wedding tradition, it is not quite often that one gets to see a bride unleash her wild side in front of her family and friends. In the case of Rochelle, the Florida bride donned a sparkling dress that left little to the imagination and only covered her frontals. She paired it with G-string underwear and twerked to Beyonce’s hit single 'Dance For You', as attending guests cheered on and filmed on their phones. Her lap dance routine was preceded by a well-coordinated burlesque-esque performance with the bridesmaids, who were dressed in white gowns with thigh-high slits. The entire clip went viral on TikTok as the 'Twerkulator dance'.

As the video clip started circulating widely, netizens ruled that it was immodest and outrageous, and should have been 'shut down' instead of being filmed and shared. "Literally this was planned, yet they didn’t think to shut the wedding down before having what should be a private moment," a Twitter user noted. Another said, "It’s the number of people that had to approve this ahead of time for me. Bridesmaids are in on it? Nobody shut this down?"

"Why would you go out of your way to invite kids to a wedding and do this in front of them? Seriously? Where is the respect for the in laws, for your own parents? I’m sorry but showing your butt to everyone at your own wedding is definitely not it," one user tweeted.

However, not everyone was on the same page when it came to Rochelle's A-rated wedding performance, as some netizens rushed to her defense as well. "It's sad how you can't even have fun at your own wedding reception without being judged. She's dancing for her man. Modesty is a term that was created by a man who was insecure about showing off his mate. There's no such thing as it," tweeted one.

Another said, "Honestly I love the idea of people doing their wedding however tf they wanna do it cause it’s their wedding and it’s SUPPOSE to happen once." "When did a wedding become about the happiness or approval of those in attendance? If the bride and groom cool with it that’s all that matters. You don’t like it, take yo ass home," a third user remarked.

Rochelle, who is most likely enjoying her honeymoon now, has not responded to the online trolling and backlash yet.
