SINGAPORE -- Every bride looks forward to receiving her wedding day photos so she can look back fondly on her big day. But probably not Jaclyn Ying.

The newlywed was so appalled by pictures she received from her bridal studio that she decided to post them online as a cautionary tale to other couples.

According to Ying's lengthy Facebook post, she had hired the services of a photographer from a "pretty reputable bridal shop" in Singapore, but wasn't given the choice of photographer.

Initially skeptical about the "all-in-one" package offered by the bridal boutique, Ying and her husband went ahead to sign for the deal anyway thinking it would be a load off their minds.

But the pictures that were meant to commemorate the day more than fell short of the couple's expectations.

In her post on Facebook, Ying wrote: "What do you do when you finally receive your actual wedding day photos and find yourself sorely disappointed in them? Get angry? Check. Shed a few tears over them? Done."

In a post that has since been deleted, the photographer, Chung siew Goh, apparently defended himself on Facebook, saying that this was a pick of some 900 pictures that he sent to the couple.

While Ying has received an outpouring of sympathy from Singaporean netizens since her post went viral, one Facebook group, KFC - Kaki Friendship Club, has decided to turn Ying's photos into a series of hilarious memes.

Seeing as Ying has already shed enough tears over her bad wedding pics, she probably could do with some laughter.
