A woman has spoken out about why she wasn’t invited to her friend’s wedding despite attending the bachelor party and spending thousands of dollars.

Amy Dickinson, 30, from Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, shared a photo from the bachelorette party on Instagram before her now former best friend did.

Despite being best friends for more than five years, the bride-to-be soon dumped Amy from her wedding, claiming she broke an ‘unspoken’ rule.

Amy said: ‘I really don’t know why I wasn’t invited. Maybe she was just looking for a reason to rescind the invitation from me and I’ve never spoken to her since this happened.”

In preparation for a long-awaited weekend and the wedding she was planning to attend; Amy had paid out more than $2,500.

That included arranging flights, accommodation and dresses for the upcoming luxury occasion.

After getting glammed up for the bachelorette party, which was held on Hamilton Island, the mood took an unexpected turn after Amy unknowingly broke a rule when she shared a photo from the party and was quickly slammed for it – despite others doing the same.

The bride’s mother also got involved, claiming she should have known about the rule without being told.

After a heated argument, Amy was reportedly kicked out of her hotel room and feared she would not have access to her plane tickets to travel back home.

Shortly after the hen weekend, Amy was relieved to discover she had not been invited to the wedding as the thought of spending any more time with the bride would be a ‘nightmare’.

Amy has since blocked almost everyone she was at the bachelorette party with on social media and never spoke to them again.

Of her ‘horror story’, Amy said: ‘Overall it was a horrible experience that left me traumatised.

‘I never want to experience something like that again. The behavior I witnessed was truly disgusting. We were pretty much best friends, since we had been friends for years.

‘I was glad I wasn’t invited because after the events that happened there was no way I would have been there at all.

‘I spent over €1,500 AUD (£773) before the wedding and over €1,000 AUD (£515) on the hen party and have never spoken to her since.’

James, a wedding singer in The Arg Band, held his wrist to the camera and revealed the small treble clef symbol he had inked, paying tribute to his singing career and love of music.

He said: ‘It’s just a small one, you can hardly see it, it looks like a musical note. That’s as wild as it gets.

“It wasn’t that painful, it wasn’t that bad, but it was funny. It gives me a great memory of performing in Mallorca, so it’s something I can laugh about.

‘But I wouldn’t have done that again. I’m actually quite happy with this because I think it’s quite cool, well, it’s totally me. Maybe I have something similar on the other wrist. Don’t know.’

James is currently traveling between Spain and Britain with his singing career and he said he is incredibly proud of his band.

As the All Star hunk showed off his bulging biceps in a form-fitting black T-shirt, he seemed eager to meet and greet his newest fans as he held a girl in the air.

The couple had not appeared on each other’s social media since the show, despite both being very active on different platforms.

However, the pair consistently liked and commented on each other’s posts, leaving fans confused as to where they stood.

While Arabella often shares glamorous snaps, Adam keeps his fans updated on his grueling gym session.

After Adam wrote, “Making moves, congratulations” under Arabella’s photo, an enthusiastic fan asked, “Didn’t you meet last night?” I was checking for updates last night’.

This comment opened the floodgates and more followers asked, “So are they still dating?”, “Where’s Adam?”, “Where’s your boyfriend?”

All comments went unacknowledged and fans were forced to draw their own conclusions until the split was finally confirmed.

MailOnline has contacted Arabella and Adam’s representatives for comment.
