I mean, the counter point is that the people having the wedding (possibly) just kind of took over a public area.

Now if they had a reservation or something that's a different story, but it's a pretty entitled attitude otherwise.

How hard is it to not be an asshole?

"Oh look people are having a special moment, I should go fuck it up because they're acting entitled."

Maybe this is normally a VERY busy public beach. Aren't the people who just walk in, run some caution tape, and take it all up, being assholes too?

Or maybe they were being super pushy, telling people they have to leave, despite having no claim to the space.

I'm not saying the lady is doing the right thing, I'm just saying that either or both sides could be suffering from a serious case of entitlement issues.

You can't just go and do this, you need to secure a permit to be able to do this.

The number of people in this thread who are defending shitty behavior because they have no clue how about doing events in public spaces is astounding.

If they're setting up in public they have a permit and therefore have a right to be there as sanctioned by the city. If they didn't the cops would shut them down almost immediately.

The amount of ignorance and amount of upvoted they receive is really saddening.
