I love your story and your decision. There will always be people like Angela who wouldn't want to agree with your lifestyle or understand your decisions, and so, they go about calling you names. They forget you choose to do what suits you and not them, and if they aren't ready to accept, my dear, you don't need such people around you because in the end, they will make you regret your actions. Many people mistake minimalism to be stinginess and I for one, I care less because I don't go about listening to their opinions, especially if they go against my principles and what I feel is good for me and not them. She didn't do well by speaking bad about you to the bride, but I like how she understood you, I mean the bride.
