Fashion influencer Danielle Bernstein accused of copying wedding speech Its nearly identical

Fashion influencer Danielle Bernstein has come under fire after a social media commentator claimed she appeared to take inspiration from another social media user for her engagement party speech.

The 33-year-old star, who is behind the popular fashion blog and brand WeWoreWhat, raised eyebrows after a social media user said she seemed to copy elements of another bride’s sweet sentiments and pass them off as her own.

Danielle’s apparent copying was pointed out by a TikTok user who goes by the name Bai.

‘Her speech that she gave at her engagement party is nearly identical to a speech a girl on TikTok gave at her wedding,’ she said.

‘The only reason I noticed was because I saw the girl’s video the day prior.’

While noting that it’s not illegal, Bai mentioned that Danielle had been accused of copying small creators before and that it looked like she was using ‘a wedding speech as well.’

Bai did not share any evidence that Danielle actually saw that ‘girl’s’ TikTok video.

In her video, Bai had cut what she said was the first bride’s speech alongside Danielle’s speech to show their apparent similarities.

The first bride said: ‘And really the most easy decision, outside of marrying this man next to me, was who we wanted here on this very special day.’

Meanwhile, Danielle said: ‘The easiest decision of all besides the man I’m standing next to and saying yes to was who we wanted to have here to celebrate us.’

Then, the first bride said: ‘I love you all, we love you all, and you are so a part of our story.’

‘I love each and every one of you so much and I’m so grateful that you’re such a big part of our story,’ Danielle said.

Social media users couldn’t believe the similarities between the two brides’ speeches and were quick to applaud Bai’s findings.

‘It’s not illegal but it’s SO WEIRD,’ one said while another commented, ‘This is so good girl you’re a full detective.’

A third asked: ‘Why would anyone copy a random person’s speech for their OWN wedding?’

Others, however, wondered if both women had used artificial intelligence to write their speeches, which is why they sounded similar.

One said: ‘Honestly… I feel like they both Googled “good bride speech” and got the same ideas. Neither is very original. I’ve heard this “easy decision was who to invite”‘ angle before.’

‘It seems pretty obvious that they both asked ChatGPT to write a speech for them,’ another posted. ‘Which is almost more embarrassing but is about to become a very common sight.’

The Daily Mail has contacted Danielle for comment.

This isn’t the first time Danielle has come under fire over her engagement party.

Last month, she was brutally slammed online after she revealed that she sent her guests a list of dresses to buy to ensure they stayed on ‘theme.’

In a TikTok video that went viral, Danielle said that she picked out dresses that she felt were ‘perfect’ for their ‘theme and dress code’ and made a list with the links to buy them.

Guests were then told to pick out what they wanted to wear to their engagement party from the list and to buy it.

And while she vowed it made it ‘easier’ for the guests, her tactic was fiercely criticized by other TikTok users.

‘Something I did as an influencer for my engagement party that I feel like is a little bit different – I actually curated shoppable links to dresses that were so perfect for our theme and dress code for our engagement party to make it easier for my guests,’ she explained in the video.

‘As people bought something from the list, I was able to take it off so that there are no matching moments,’ she vowed.

Danielle, who is originally from Long Island, New York, started WeWoreWhat in 2011 as a personal blog where she shared photos that she took of NYC’s street-style.

After it gained popularity, she began launching her own clothing and in 2017, the then-24-year-old landed a spot on Forbes’ 30 under 30 list.

Over the years, she has also released her own autobiography, called This is Not a Fashion Story: Taking Chances, Breaking Rules, and Being a Boss in the Big City – which became a New York Times best seller.

During her career, Danielle has faced criticism – including claims that she copied other companies with her products.

Most famously, in May 2018, the influencer was accused of copying the designs from brands like Foundrae, Retrouvaí, Bondeye Jewelry, and Tiffany & Co. after she released a jewelry collaboration with Lulu DK.

Instagram account Diet Prada posted a series of photos comparing Danielle’s pieces to those from the other brands, while pointing out the similarities between them.

At the time, Danielle claimed the designs were inspired by her late grandfather and were not taken from the other brands. She later removed several of the products from circulation.

In July 2020, she came under fire again when she was accused of copying a small Latina-owned business created by a woman named Karen Perez, after she released a line of face masks which had chains attached to them.

Diet Prada posted about the allegations and after the backlash, Danielle donated the masks to healthcare workers and took down her posts promoting them online.

She also shared message on her Instagram saying that the accusations were ‘false.’
