My wedding in a tiny church with a tiny church yard - the photographer was backing up framing his shot - fell over backwards into a partly dug grave lol
I thought the same. The picture turned out a true masterpiece.
Load More Replies...I love how the 2nd from the right, front row is smirking like "What a goof".
That's it! The photographer didn't slip! *puts his Jessica Fletcher voice* It was the groom! He did it!
Load More Replies...I was waiting for someone to pull that one at Harry's and Meghan's wedding yesterday...
My sister got married to Jim Morris just a few months after the Gyanna disaster and the pastor introduced them as Mr. and Mrs. Jim Jones. OOPS
I guess this is what happens when you get married in a church that you don't attend regularly enough for the minister to know who you are.
Just because the minister presided, does not mean this took place in a church. Also, the fact that the minister confused two very similar names of two siblings does not imply that they weren’t regular attendees. The minister could be quite up there in age...
Load More Replies...Haha! This sounds like something I would do. I once lectured everyone on NOT to drop their smoothies and spill them, three seconds later, I spilled it everywhere...
At my friend's wedding, I held onto her purse while she was busy getting married. Then in the middle of the ceremony a phone started ringing and I thought, "What rude person didn't put their phone on silent." It was the bride's phone, but everyone thought it was me because I had her bag.
Sent for collection? I would counter the same for non-fulfillment...
Well to be honest, babies don't belong at a wedding. We put a note in with the invitations that ours was an "Adults Only" event and as much as we loved the children of our friends, they were NOT invited. A good friend of mine couldn't find a sitter and just assumed I'd make an exception for her. I wouldn't and told her, "we'll miss you". I didn't pay thousands of dollars to have my day ruined by some squalling brat - I'm not being a b***h, her kid in particular was an obnoxious little s**t.
I don't want to stereotype, but the weddings that I have been to (I'm Indian) the bride's family would not let the groom enter the wedding hall until he or his family gave them enough money
Same in Bulgaria, except the groom takes the bride from her home. In the more common tradition family won't let him enter until he fills the bride's shoe with an amount of money she and her maid of honor approve. But in some places the groom has to prove himself by doing something like shooting a bow (a friend of mine was to a wedding like that), chopping wood or other similar tasks. It's a lot of fun.
Load More Replies...He could have said "did you bring the cows (or goats/pigs...)" - that would have stung even more!
The party stopped, so Marines and everyone else: 0, five year old: 1 actually...
That's so adorable! I'm imagining marines looking under tables and stuff XD
When I was a kid, my dad was squatting to talk to his wife and a fly landed on top of his bald head. Without much thinking, I ran over and smacked the "fly". My dad was speechless, but I think my step mom almost passed out from laughingly so hard.
Groom Switch. Now in theatres. Starring Eva Mendez, Will Smith and Adam Sandler.
If you make this bloody happen I swear to God
Load More Replies...wrong date?!?! ya mean he didn't talk to anyone else before the wedding ceremony? He woke up and thought, "today is the day" and then did not communicate with anyone else who would say, "no bruh, not today..."
Come on, that would have made one great photo and ensuing story!
Uh oh. He's gonna be one of those husbands who forget their anniversary.
I once had a teacher in fifth grade who was really funny. Whenever we went for a bathroom break (everyone had to wait in the hallways) she would let a few people in at a time. One day, we were stopping by the bathrooms, and no one had to go, so she said. "go now, or forever hold your pee."
my bestie threatened to cough at that moment...my in-laws best friend genuinely coughed then and I assumed it was bestie and gave this poor older lady such a glare...then I realised it wasn't me so-called bff!
I always thought it was 'piece' like a 'piece of your mind:'. I'm so confused now
For the seagull, actually, it was "yes, toupée. For lunch."
Load More Replies...Went a little too far with the story ..I doubt the seagull actually ate a toupee
A segull couldn't eat a toupée. It might carry it away, but it defintely wouldn't eat it.
Hope they captured it on video. A memory to treasure forever.
Load More Replies...I love it. "Come on, let me watch this f* game....She doesn't run away"
Eiether you were ready to walk down the aisle or it was half way through the ceremony..pick one because this makes no sense
" I, Megan Katherine, do take Megan Katherine, to be my lawfully wedded Megan Katherine"
No, it should be I Regina Karken, do take Megan Kotherine, to be my lawfuly weded wiefe.
Load More Replies...I would have laughed at this only because of the cupcakes. If there had been a proper wedding cake, it would be a pretty dumb joke.
I remember one joke... "I almost stop visiting the weddings, because the old ladies start pinches me in the face and saying "You'll be next.". They stop, when i start doing them the same on funerals."
Oh, you are evil! I can picture the stunned looks on their faces! :)
Load More Replies...This is the best! I can imagine this in my head :D It's like from some wedding comedy movie.
This person referred to him as the “boyfriend” rather than husband. So most definitely not.
Load More Replies...I agree with @shaudaysmith but also want to chime in that parents really shouldn't have their under 18 kids out there for this tradition. Personally.. didn't do this at my wedding
Load More Replies...And this is why I will have no kids allowed to my wedding... and I am a mom already!
Frankly, a bunch of children are a major contribution to any wedding. Any weddings without children I have been to were utterly boring,.
Load More Replies...I was at my first wedding as a guest when I was 13 years old. I was fascinated with everything - colors, decorations, etc. I knew the bride well. I went out with all the single ladies, which included a few other teenage girls, when the bride threw the bouquet. I caught it. I was so happy. I just had my first boyfriend, and I was all giggles and romance-y. Of course I knew I wasn't going to be next to be married, but my parents were going through a nasty divorce at the time, and catching the bouquet really made me happy. About 20 minutes after I caught it, the bride came up and asked me to give it to her so that she could give it to someone else. It crushed my little 13-year-old heart (this was a little over 40 years ago). I solved that problem at my own wedding by having 2 'bouquet-throws'...one for those over 18, and one for those between 13 and 18. It's silly, but I remembered how I felt when that bouquet was taken from me. My plan at my wedding worked out very nicely.
You started a new tradition. You feel that pain after all these years. Bless you. The Bride didn't have to do that.
Load More Replies...I never heard of anyone assuming they were going to catch it. She must be desperate to get married. Men this is the kind of woman you do not want to marry. Anyone who would fight a child over a bouquet is not someone you would want to spend your life with.
There are men who are similar to her as well that I’ve seen with the catching of the garter belt. Someone a woman should never marry either.
Load More Replies...At my friend's wedding I knocked her identical twin to the floor, but I caught the bouquet. Karma got me back' cause she married an awesome guy a few years later, and I'm still single.
lmao! i thought the tree at the back was part of the husbands hair
oh god too soon, too soon. I just saw the movie.
Load More Replies...yeah that'll add spark to the honeymoon... bride seductively disrobes, birdseed goes everywhere...
Load More Replies...How does a town (or towns) in the US get named after a city in Ancient Greece?
In Maine we have Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Peru, China, Moscow, Paris and Naples.. all within 1 1/2 hours drive from one another.. (most are in one area though...) Peiple from 'away' get very confused...
Load More Replies...Slavia is better! (And old Czech rivalrly between tho football clubs - Sparta and Slavia :D)
Sparta, WI is a lovely town. At least they didn’t end up in some armpit like Gary, Indiana
I have a worse one: There were some really awful singers at a funeral I attended. We were trying very hard not to get hysterical and laugh out loud. I guess we will burn in Hell now.
I probably will see you there. I most likely will be there for something I have no idea!
Load More Replies...That's adorable and if I ever get married I want my ring bearer to do that. Love it.
My baby’s cousin at his aunts wedding was told to be reverent and quiet like we’re at church because they’re getting married and he needs to be quiet but he kept screaming “no! This is not church!”
Now if a helmet wearing squirrel flew in, that'd have been something.
Technically Boris and Natasha were Potsylvanians. Although it was quite clear they were supposed to be Russian.
Load More Replies...Never, never do anything you do not regularly do on the morning of a wedding...
What's better to celebrate tenderness and romance ? I'got the perfect idea ! Let's bring weapons ! :D Fireguns are so the perfect symbol of love ! <3 #arewelivinginthesameworld
During my sister's wedding her boy (who she weaned a bit late) kept shouting out, really loudly: 'MAMMA TITTY!' My other sisters and I (the bridesmaids) pissed ourselves laughing. The stupid photographer edited the shouting out of the video so all you can see is my sister having her wedding while her bridesmaids crease themselves laughing. Looks like we are the meanest sisters ever! :P
My kids did this sort of thing for a while when they needed comfort. I discouraged it, but every once in a while they snuck an arm in. (Both boy and girl toddlers)
well, he shot his shot, that's for sure...
Load More Replies...huh. I mean, that's awful to the bride and groom, but at least he got it off his chest.
I had a big Indian wedding. I invited around 30 people. My parents invited around 80. My wife and her parents invited over 400. I literally didn't know anyone for large parts of the day.
In an Indian wedding you will hardly recognize 80% of the people..
Load More Replies...My flower girl thought for several years that she had married the ring bearer at my wedding. (She was 3, he was 6)
No, Honey, you have to wait until they throw the bouquet, and you wrestle it away from a 24 year old woman.
in a place where no one will ever find him. O_O
Load More Replies...As an aside, our DJ "forgot" to bring our song (back in the days when DJ's carried around actual records!) and we danced to some random song the DJ said was "just as good" It wasn't
Load More Replies...Someone on the staff stole ours even after we invited them all to eat (we had a buffet) and gave them cake too. Forour first anniversary we bought a frozen Peppridge Farm cake and "pretended" it was the top tier that we had kept for a year.
My husband and I saved ours for a whole year. Then we took it out of the freezer, thawed it, and started to eat it. It was horrible! Freezer burn or something.
Load More Replies...So it's a tradition to keep the top tier? But it will get bad or do they just eat itat home? lol
You are... MY FIIIIIIIIIRE. My one... DESIIIIIIIIIIRE. Believe... When IIIIIII say... IIIIIIII WAAAAANT IT THAAAAAAT WAY! ♬♪ (mwahahahah sorry I had to ♥ )
Actually, that white strip around the headlights is part of the fire engine's highly reflective graphics. It's glowing because it is reflecting back the camera's flash. The camera likely adjusted its exposure to the light coming back from the stripe. On the other hand, the wedding photographer likely would have had a wireless flash that could be aimed from a different angle. And/or, could have manually adjusted their camera's settings to pick up more ambient light, such as this one I shot, that is just lit by the ambient lighting: 478698_423...27905a.jpg
And I hope the flower girl had weed instead of flowers and was throwing out pre-rolled joints!
At my parents wedding they ended up playing "rob a liquor store tonight" by Ann Murray. Mom still laughs but my grandfather does not.
I'm thinking the third one, as hard as he's laughing
Load More Replies...Obviously pressing buttons was not their forte.
Load More Replies...What kind of place that is?! Did no one else use the elevator for more than an hour?
Is it wrong that what bothers me in this photo is that the two ladies on the end of the right side didn't cross their legs the same way as the rest? Sorry, ocd moment here.
Yes, just ignore the tantrum - that's sure to teach the kid not to do it again.
Ignoring it is how the child learns that tantrums are not effective negotiation or communication tools. Giving in to the child's demands or pampering/placating the child is how the child learns to be spoiled, entitled and manipulative. Insulting, yelling at, threatening, spanking or beating the child is how the child learns to use violence, aggression, threats and tantrums to get what he wants.
Load More Replies...i would ask the everyone who didn't participate in the wave to leave.
right?!!? i think we missed a better story here.
Load More Replies...Reminds me of that episode of Full House where Uncle Jessie goes skydiving on the day of his wedding, and winds up in jail for some reason. Then his bride to be has to bail him out while wearing her wedding dress.
That's sort of sweet. It makes you wonder who he thought the bride was, though.
Maybe she reminded him of his late wife. This is sad, not funny.
Load More Replies...Jina's dad is the captain now. You listen to the Captain, Chad.
Load More Replies...My pants split just as I sat down at the wedding of my youngest son. I still haven't had the courage to look at the pictures ten years later!
Aw, that's cute! I'd have loved a child doing that at my wedding. Hilarious.
I watch my wedding video every year with my husband on our anniversary.
Load More Replies...Father of the GROOM!!!!! I would have been seriously pissed if my old man did this.
Our flower girl dumped her whole basket at the end of the aisle and then started walking back out the aisle as I was walking down saying "wanna fro flowers" so we let her 😂. She's now almost 17 and we still kid her about it. She's a love bug and I wouldn't have changed it for the world.
My cousin was the flower girl at my brother's wedding, and she was a very serious 4 year old at the time...that was the most precise flower placement I'd ever seen at a wedding lol
Load More Replies...I was a flower girl at my aunts wedding. I walked down the aisle and proceeded to dump all the flowers at the end of the aisle, then sit on the stairs. My grandma them had to bribe me with candy to get off the stairs! I was also a flower girl at my moms wedding. Being a 3 year old brat, I didn't want to take pictures so I just hid in the flowers. I regret my decisions.
I was the flower girl for my aunt's wedding. at the end, I was supposed to pick up the flowers. My second cousins tried to help me. they got a black eye.
Here is a pic of me as a 2-year-old flower girl at my aunt's wedding (in the 60s). The best one has the soles of my patent leather white mary janes, which sticking out from under the back of my aunt's beautiful wedding dress. My mother told me that I'd drop petals, then pick them back up, then walk a little more, and repeat. Apparently one was under my aunt's wedding dress, I spied it, and went after it. My mother warned her that I was too young to be in her wedding, but my aunt wouldn't have it any other way. Everyone laughed and thought it was cute, but my family still teases me when we tell stories during the holidays. I have the 'good luck' penny for my aunt's shoe in my hand in this photo. 2014-03-26...ec1dfe.jpg
Shut up, you've already had a big Indian wedding ;)

Load More Replies...Honestly, that's good for ANY time you have to stand a long time. I can't tell you how many times my ex had to fix faces as a corpsman stationed with the Marines. They'd fall on their faves during inspections. The best time though was the Major asking "why does my corpsman look better than my Marines?" And my ex loudly proclaimed it was because his wife's father was in the Navy, and she ironed the uniform and polished his boots! Good times...
Load More Replies...nervousness, too much alcohol the night before, no fresh air inside the church and standing for a long time.
Load More Replies...I don't even want to know what was going on. Was she good at Pokémon though? That's the real question!
that is the best Dad conversation. I would have the same look as the best man whose phone was playing Umbrella.
That reminds me of my wedding. I'm sitting in the bride room waiting to go down the aisle, and my mom gets a call from Life Alert. They thought my grandma had fallen, and they couldn't reach her, and neither could we. Thankfully, she showed up before it was time. It turns out she had her pendant in her purse, and it fell over. Thank goodness we had an answer in time. Otherwise, that would have been one high-anxiety wedding ceremony.
This comment is so dumb... He wouldn't have been able to get into the church in the first place, duh. ;-)
Load More Replies...The day before my dad's first day of work ever, he tried to impress my mom by turning his face as red as possible. Blew two black eyes doing so.
I come from redneck stock, so, "that one uncle" is the sober one.
Load More Replies...My husband is still jealous that I was drinking with my MOH, my aunt and my mom in our suite while getting ready for the wedding while was stuck in his parents hotel room completely sober. Our ceremony started at noon.
That would be me, but I would also keep them on a note card or something
I'll definitely agree. Not that's always easy to do so, kids are kids after all, but definitely keep them away from the main participants beforehand!
Load More Replies...honestly.... the child-related wedding fails are why i explicitly wrote "no small children" on the invites to my wedding.
Sometimes couples give out small bottles of bubbles to blow, rather than throw rice or bird seed.
Load More Replies...It's funny as long as nobody gets hurt, but glitter can cause pretty serious eye injuries, so please don't repeat this. Glitter is evil!
Why go through with it? The bride and her family could have just had a party that day and moved on.
I would have. I don't give couples their present until at least a year after the wedding. If I officiate, I don't give a gift at all
No disrespect to the gift-giver, but going off-registry is the best way to risk being re-gifted.
Load More Replies...I’m confused first they register then there is another couple? Then you regifted it. Wut??
Before a wedding, couples create a registry of gifts they’d like to receive. This couple got glasses that were not on their list. The bride realized the giver had also just gotten married, guessed they got a gift they didn’t want and passed it on to her. Then, she found a card addressed to the giver, not her, which proved she was right.
Load More Replies...Wedding i went to had stuff like an oven, washer drier etc.. I just gave cash
As a parent I can't imagine letting my child stand up during a ceremony, let alone allowing him to walk into the isle and start dancing. Sit down, be quiet, it's not your day to be noticed!
I agree! That's what's wrong with the world now. Kids are not taught to act right. And that they can't just do what they want.
Load More Replies...Uh, put the phone down and parent. He's old enough to realize this isn't appropriate.
As a parent it's your responsibility to make sure your kid understands what is ok and what isn't. If he can't understand it, then it's your responsibility to prevent him doing wrong.
Secretly I think the mother was disappointed that her child wasn't given the attention they both clearly crave
Actually, as someone who's officiated at a hundred or so weddings, it would be really easy to do. This guy evidently didn't know the couple and was probably working from a generic script that said "bride's name here". He figured he would remember but got nervous (yes, pastor's can get nervous too) and blanked out. I've been there, but I've got the kind of sense of humor that lets me ask.
Load More Replies...Oh for f**k's sake. You avoid saying the name to the best of your ability if you forget it, don't call someone goddamn "Salami", that's so disrespectful.
Nice. At least now there weren't any surprises in what kind of family she was marrying. (Tbh, I wouldn't have even noticed because I didn't know it was a thing... )
People can be incredibly petty and hurtful. This story happened way before I met my husband. His sister, who is a shy person without any friends, married a man several years older than her, so all of the groom's friends were already married or had partners--plus it seems they didn't really like her due to the age difference. The men threw the groom-to-be a bachelor party and the women organized a bachelorette party--WITHOUT the bride-to-be. She was ready and excited on the day of the party but NOBODY called her or went to pick her up or anything. In the end, her parents took her out for dinner. This was ages ago, but the story still breaks my heart.
That's one of the more horribly s****y things I've ever heard about a wedding.
Load More Replies...F*** them. They are NOT THE FRIGGEN BRIDE. I WOULD ACTUALLY START A FIGHT WITH THEM IF THEY DID THIS TO MEH
And you should have said "How sweet, you guys wanted to look just like me!" and smiled the biggest smile possible. Kill them with kindness, it's much more satisfying.
I don’t see why people are doubting this, I went to a wedding and it was a disaster.
Load More Replies...could be worse at my parents wedding the lime didn't even show up and they had to use the best mans car
Now THIS is where that water spilling kid from earlier would have been needed, except with punch
I'd give the kid a nice glass of merlot if that's where it's going to end up.
Load More Replies...My MIL to be *graciously* "let" me chose my wedding colors before she chose her dress. She told me this like she had bestowed upon me the greatest gift, to which I informed her that *I* would chose my colors first and then MY mom and grandmom would chose next THEN she could pick something. She also didn't like me correcting her when she would say "our wedding". No, it is MY wedding. ("our" only being when it was talking about my now husband and me)
You know, this is why I try very hard to foster and maintain a good relationship with my son's new bride. He loves her. He wants to spend the rest of his life with her. It's my job and responsibility to support their marriage! It's made easier that I definitely love her for HER and not just as my son's wife, but dang it, if your child is getting married to a descent person, be supportive, not devisive!
Load More Replies...At least it's pretty much a given that the bride looked MUCH better in white than did the MIL.
Yes, they are married. Yes, I dropped off the package. No, I did not tell her I love her.
You don't ignore the flower girl without facing the embarrassing consequences.;)
It's the fault of the Limo service for waiting to confirm the services as long as they did. They should have called the night before. Also while they are not to blame it's definitely worth noting that you should not give your cell phone number if you are the bride or groom. Your best man and maid of honor (or literally anyone else in the wedding party) are the ones who are supposed to manage phones the day of.
Don't blame the victim. The limo service should have given a refund. They didn't provide the service.
Load More Replies...I guess it depends on how old your little brother was... 3? okay. 33? maybe not okay.
Uhm that’s YOUR wedding not your father in laws! FRIGGEN in-laws can b so rude!
My now step son was the best man. He gave me and my husband a piece of toast each
I forgot to get "dripless" candles to light our unity candle so my husband and I had hot wax dripping on our hands when we lit the unity candles.
At my wedding, it was windier than expected and the candle didn't have anything to shelter it from the wind. It went out 3 or 4 times during the ceremony and the officiant relit it while still performing the ceremony. Incredibly smooth.
What is it about people that they think their opinion matters SO much, that it's ok to do something like that?
wow... regardless of her views, this is not okay
Load More Replies...asshole maid of honor right there i can tell shed make a lovely b**** wife
You wouldn't believe how common is that here in Venezuela, actually not the first story I've heard regarding weddings and airline fails like that hahaha

This works really well actually - went to a wedding recently where this was the plan. By the time the couple were back from honeymoon they had thousands of fabulous candid shots that a professional photographer would never have managed. It was a fairly casual outdoor wedding though. Maybe it wouldn't be the best option for something more formal.
I've seen weddings where there were disposable cameras on the tables and people were told to take LOTS of pictures for the wedding album, and the new couple would get them developed. I thought that was lovely!
Load More Replies...Yes, spend thousands of dollars on a wedding and skimp out on the one professional whose job it is capture the day and it's memories for years to come. I'll bet the shots and prints were just awesome.
You’re not. You should probably fix that. My grandma was adopted and used what she thought was her real name to get married. The nuns were wrong. When she found and reconnected with her family, it turns out it was way off and they had to go to city hall in their 60’s to fix it.
True story about a LOT of Catholic services adoption agencies...they change names and birthdates in some/many adoptions. Why? To protect the birth mother in a lot of times, to promote the adoptive families, to prevent the child from finding their birth parents. A friend of mine, that's exactly what her parents were told. My Fallcon had a child over twenty years ago (they were married but could barely support themselves, much less a child) and was told that the Catholic services agency would be changing her birthdate and the name she was given, so that she would not be able to find them.
Load More Replies...Just change his name to whatever it was!! Easiest solution. And who cares if you are technically married? The bonds of love will hold you both, and who needs more than that?
In the UK you would be legally married. The name could be correctly added to the Register and only wrong on the certificate or wrong in both cases and you are still married. You can apply to have the name amended in either case. Probably different in other countries.
Went to a wedding where the groom toasted his new wife with his ex-girlfriends name.
Yes it does! Babies are pooping machines! (My granddaughter got me REALLY good the first time I gave her a bottle, lol)
Load More Replies...LOL my step mother is the sister to one of my ex's mother so she is now my step aunt LOL. She constantly tells me that she is glad I didn't marry her son because I deserved better than him, she has said this in front of him and in front of his current girlfriend many times. My husband and I will be married 19 years on the 12th.
That's why you have a small matching one made to throw and you keep the real one.
Load More Replies...Never been to a wedding where the bride threw the bouquet. Don't know why people get in such a state about it. Mad superstition.
Could you imagine if it was Celsius? That would be quite a sight.
Load More Replies...I honestly read this as the goldfish cracker until the dead fish part came up ... They should have gone with the crackers.
Me, a loud individual, was so moved that I whispered my vows. My husband heard, but everyone else thought I changed my mind. Burping sounds worse, I will count my lucky stars now!!
Totally agree. Unfortunately, some people are gentle souls who don't like to argue and so go along with daft ideas.
Load More Replies...I believe only those coincidents that I have carefully arranged myself. :-D
How short was the dress, and why was the Groom helping you to hold it down?
Asking the real question. Need more explanation.
Load More Replies...Sorry if I'm being ignorant but what's a walk out? Everyone has a song? I've never heard of this tradition but it sounds like a great idea!!
A walkout is were couples and stuff walks down the isle right before the bride. Then the bride walks down. We had one at my parents wedding
Load More Replies...Legend has it, the girl that catches the bouquet is the next to be married :)
Load More Replies...My mom used to make me sing that song, and the angry vocals in it are just too hilarious 😂😂😂
no one wants to be the first to sit
Load More Replies...Sounds like it wasn't just short but also too tight. I think I'd have been too scared to move.
There is a custom where the man who catches the garter places it onto the leg of the woman who catches the bouquet.
Load More Replies...At a cousin's wedding....her siblings each caught the items. The photographer kept saying they would make a great looking couple and tried to get them to pose together and kiss.
He tried to silently signal his friends to find the rings. While he was on the stage or whatever. Because he didn't want to just say, "Hey hang on a moment, I forgot something."
Load More Replies...Grandma might be a robust old gal with a 'seen it all before' attitude. Not that it makes their actions any better. Idiots.
Load More Replies...Never do anything that steals attention from the couple. Don't dress silly or provocatively, don't dance like a jerky showoff, don't get drunk and have to be carried out, don't comment on the likelihood of the marriage surviving....just don't. The day is Not About You.
Surely, she means that the man proposed to his own GF. I think this is sweet.
But it was at someone else's wedding reception! Way to upstage the newlyweds...
Load More Replies...Scarred for life is a bit much. How was this not brought up BY ANYONE before the ceremony?
Wonder if people thought that you were going to leave your fiance at the alter?
my bridesmaids and I were getting dressed only to realize I had the wrong size pantyhose and we had forgotten the shoes at my dad's house... dad had to run to the house to get shoes and my sister ran to get me new hose! we were an hour late starting LOL
Wait... how? wouldn't the correct twin be... I don't know... wearing a wedding dress?
That's why you shouldn't hold the parties the day before but two days before at least.
I had my sister's the day before. But it was a day cruise so everyone was home by 4pm. Hangovers gone by morning - with mimosa JUST to make sure :-P
Load More Replies...I was pregnant with our 3rd child at our wedding. We are really bad at planning LOL and it was a planned pregnancy, any ways, had to get sparkling apple cider. We are a picture of my 5 year old with the whole bottle ripping it up in a corner while looking around suspiciously. I guess he thought it was real.
I'm gonna be the "Moral Police" here. Why was it where a 7 year old could get it? And why was she unsupervised?
Someone probably left their drink on their table. It's a 7 year old. They're a squirrely nimble creature and sneaky too!
Load More Replies...Punctuation and spelling be damned! Someone please revoke this dude's twitter license.
what is it with guys peeing in the wrong place? I've seen this too many times.
Y'all know that was a ad campaign to stop people from throwing trash out their windows on the highways, right?
Oddly enough I just heard that as a trivia question on the radio this morning. In Massachusetts.
Load More Replies...This is why babies and weddings don't mix... I mean, I love 'em, but there's a time and a place...
My entire wedding party left our reception causing all the guests to leave too.
He was a virgin, 20 something years old. He couldn't wait for the wedding night any longer.
Load More Replies...If you signed the license you are. You don't even have to have a ceremony.
Not true in all states. Some require a state licensed officiant and two witnesses. I guess you could say you don't have to have a ceremony, but there has to be *something* done that the witnesses can say happened and the officiant can declare that he/she performed the marriage.
Load More Replies...Yup, but probably best that she was no longer there!
Load More Replies...Having very young children as ring bearers might be cute but it does come with risks!!
yep. a lot of people here in Germany chose "I will always love you" from Whitney Houston for their weddings. The song is about breaking up... sigh.
My cousin had slamdancing. It was crazy fun. The bride comes over, give him the stern pointed finger thing, hitches her wedding dress, and slams all the grooms men. Epic.
After reading all about these uncles, I am determined not to invite any of mine to my own wedding.
Makes sense. If you think something is fake....stick your fingers in it.
Perhaps I am confused, but I thought the point of elopement was to get it done privately and announce it to one's family as a done deal.
I think she was just letting her gram in on the elopement..not to ask her to attend..
Load More Replies...Ouch. I'll come. I"ll cheer for you. I'll dab my eyes like it's the most beautiful thing ever. It's what you deserve.
He handled it with aplomb! Must have been very embarrassing for him too.
I call my cousins couples also "cousins", since I feel them as a part of my family.
Cousins can marry in the UK. Though personally I don't find it an appealing idea.
Load More Replies......you can get rid of all the music off of your player except for what's on the playlist... then put it back on after the event... complete lack of planning
It's not custom, it's law (if you want to be legally married that is!)
I think she meant the customary time during the ceremony.
Load More Replies...When I got married, my Mom and I went to have our hair styled. When we got back in the car, and the radio came on, someone had called in to make a remark about "A man getting married today who dedicated a song to his wife." He even mentioned the name of the song. (Our song)
I read another post about a bride that was two hours late to her own wedding because of her bachelorette party and he still married her (yes, I read all posts XD)
Do to obligations I attend about 3 to 5 wedding receptions a year. I have rarely seen one where it did not end up in a drunken orgy. I hate going but usually have to. I try to only stay as long as I can get away with. Always try to get out before the drinking gets too bad. I can't tell you the number of times I have seen many of the guest arrive at the reception already blind drunk. Makes me disgusted. Usually the more spent on alcohol the shorter the marriage.
Yeah, that's really tacky. I'd escape as early as possible, too!
Load More Replies...At my sister's wedding, someone spiked the punch. Her MIL had a fit, because the wedding was at the Baptist Church.
Alcohol at a baptist wedding? The horrors! --I say this tongue -in-cheek, I'm all too familiar with the mindset.or as I told my mama, "I'll behave by the rules, but reserve my perogitive to roll my eyes behind your back"! (I didn't. I just grinned at her as tough I HAD, which made her nervous, lol,)
Load More Replies...How do you solve a problem like Maria? (that's from The Sound of Music, in case someone doesn't get the reference. And yes, I had to.)
Why do people do idiotic and unkind things like that for a bet? Glad she got to turn the tables on him so smoothly!
This is thee second one on the list! Why don't all these selfish show-offs who are desperate to include non-pets at their events think about the welfare of the animals in question?? Yes. Yes I'm angry.
I'm with you on this. I thought that about the doves as well. Stop using animals as props.
Load More Replies...that happened in an episode of 2 and a half men too. Except the butterflies were frozen.
As the officiant I will not perform a ceremony if either of the parties is drunk. They are not legally capable of entering into a binding contract while under the influence. And yes, it's happened.
And they laughed about it then?? AND now!?!? WTF
Load More Replies...I call bs, with a sharp knife it's easy to tear down the wrap, i could've get in in 15 minutes max.
And this is the first picture that comes up when you search "saran wrapped car" soooo
Load More Replies...It's not wrapped at the bottom. A pair of scissors would have this off in minutes
Err....so no one else had a car to give them a lift and there were no taxis? Total rubbish.
Right? There are other cars in the world... also, search "saran wrapped car". Like Quinn said, the image used is the first one that shows up.
Load More Replies...fairly sure the caterers, reception, photographers, venue ect could all happily put a price on it xD
Load More Replies...I find this one hard to believe. There were so many ways to remove the wrap, if all fail, which I highly doubt, take one of the groomsmen car instead of missing the honeymoon. Maybe there were other reasons for missing the honeymoon, I highly doubt it was because they could not get into their car.
Seems that Groomsmen did them a favor :D Anyway, never done that, so honest question, does it really take so long to get rid of the wrap? Can't you just cut it with the scissors?
My ex's brothers polished his boots for the wedding and did that to them. Further shoe fails: mama didn't allow me to break in my shoes, so they were too tight, then I got my heel caught in the hem of my dress when we stood up after the prayers. Fun times. (Didn't fall, he had my arm and I kicked my foot till it was free)
Um...a few things wrong here obviously. The one that bothers me most though is that people think it's okay to try and control someone they supposedly love. I might request that my husband not do something if it seemed like a really bad idea, and we'd discuss it, but I don't consider I have the right to forbid him.
You do realize that this guy obviously had a drinking problem (then a drug addiction), right?
Load More Replies...It's a game where the bride and groom have one shoe from each of them. They get asked questions like such as, "who is the better cook?", and the bride and groom answers by holding up the shoe of the person in the relationship that can cook better.
Load More Replies...They didn't meet the photographer before hand? See examples of their work? What rot.
I THINK it say "couldn't love you 2 more"
Load More Replies...That's the point. The fail is she signed it while drunk.
Load More Replies...My brother was trying to save on costs so his wedding location was an old barn in the middle of a forest. I'm very allergic to both trees and mold. I spent the entire wedding struggling to breathe and puffy faced and that is really all I remember about the wedding. Also, the maid of honor and father of the bride speeches were so long and bad (I think they mentioned the bride once, mostly talking about themselves) at my cousin's wedding, that the best man decided his speech to about 30 sec because he was hungry. He got the biggest round of applause.
Your brother is kind of a d**k for doing that, if he already knew about your allergies.
Load More Replies...BIL's wedding vows: "I will never give you up, I will never let you down, I will never turn around and desert you. I will never say goodbye, I will never make you cry, I will never tell a lie and hurt you." Sweet, and everyone who got it giggled, but still kinda a fail
I went to a wedding where the uncle of the groom gave his entire family copies of his (partly plagerized) self-publshed preachy pseudo-religious book instead of getting a gift for the new couple. Grooms sister is the one he plagerized for parts of the book. One of her aunts had me take her back to the hotel before she (not literally) killed him.
My mother passed the same day a family friend was getting married. 18 years later and he and his family still haven't forgotten us for not coming.
They wanted you to be wedding guests even though your mom died on the same day? You shouldn't be friends with sociopaths, it's not healthy.
Load More Replies...My sister was my bridesmaid and forgot to bring her shoes. She made such a big deal of it. My husband told me later that the rabbi was about to leave because I was 30 minutes late. I told my sister to wear some other shoes, she refused. I said we can all go barefoot down the aisle. I just didn't care! Finally my brother showed up with the shoes and I've now been married 29 years. Now, about the singer who forgot to bring her background music...😂
I was flower girl in my parents and my aunts wedding. In the pictures of my aunts wedding I am happy as I can be but in my parents... I was grumpy and sad during the whole ceremony, all because I couldn't sit on their lap and none of the other family members laps was good enough XD.
You were a flower girl at your own parents wedding??? Omg, how embarrassing
Load More Replies...I have so many bad stories about my wedding, it's no surprise that I ended up divorced. We only had the wedding like we did because his parents paid. Everything was done their way because it was their money. About 2 months after the wedding they showed up at our apartment and asked when we were going to pay them back. Excuse me? I had and paid for a wedding that I didn't want in the slightest. I spent a lot of time on the seating arrangements. It was a small wedding and everyone knew each other. When I got to the reception I was surprised to see that my family had changed all the seating and no one was where I out them. Grrrr. Oh... and one of the groomsmen cornered me and asked if I would be with him if he left his wife. Fun times....
Oh... and the DJ showed up with a massive bandage on his head and play every song on the "Do not play" list! How could I forget that gem.
