Wedding season is in full swing, but chances are some of the currently-engaged couples won't even make it to their vows. In fact, according to a survey conducted by specialist diamond buyers WP Diamonds, who polled 1,000 people between the ages of 20 and 60 across the US, this happens a whopping 20 percent of the time. So in order to find out why folks untie the knot, let's take a look at a Reddit post that asked its users to share the exact moment they realized there won't be a ceremony.

Not at bacheler party,though my uncle got left at alter on his wedding day.(5yrs relationship)
My grandad had to go up on alter, thank everyone for coming and say there would be no wedding.
My uncle was heartbroken and went on a trip to New Zealand.
He sat on plane next to a dude from there. He invited him to his familys home. And my uncle ended up marrying his sister.
They are still together and have had 3 kids.
She is awsome and all happy days, eldest child 21 yrs.
Best Aunt.

Better to be dumped before the wedding takes place then having to go through all of the angst of divorce. The timing wasn’t right and it was completely disrespectful but at least he didn’t get married to her because you know that that was not going to be a happy relationship. And very happy that he was open to finding new love and that it worked out for him!

There's a story that goes around, I can't vouch for the truth of it or not. Call it an urban legend.
First of all, if you've never been to a Jewish wedding, the way it goes is, first they have the reception (with the bride and groom in separate rooms), then the ceremony, then family goes away to sit for pictures while the guests sit down to eat, then the bride and groom come in and the dancing starts. In between the ceremony and the pictures, though, is what's called "Yichud" which doesn't really translate, but it approximately means "isolation together": the bride and groom lock themselves in a room and are observed by two reliable witnesses outside the door to have stayed therein long enough to have consummated the marriage (although nobody actually does it there: it's considered declasse). This is what actually solemnizes the marriage. (well, one of three things: the other two are signing a marriage contract, called a Ketubah, and transfer of a piece of chattel property (traditionally a ring, though it can be other things) from the groom to the bride.)
So. After the yichud, the bride comes out and announces, "Sorry everyone, the wedding's off. We'll be getting a divorce, and we're returning all the gifts . . . except for the bedroom set, where I caught my new husband trying it out with my sister last week."
So? There are far worse stories here in this very thread. What makes this one noteworthy? Well, think about this. She knew about the episode before the wedding. Why'd she go through with it? Because under Jewish law, if you've once been married to a woman, even after divorcing her you aren't allowed to marry her sister at any time until your first wife has died. By going through with the ceremony, she in effect locked her sister out of ever being able to get together with her soon-to-be-ex...

Unless being unfaithful is fine under jewish laws, why would he care about the other rule?
Miriam L 3 years ago
Because as long as he's trying to play the part of an Orthodox man (being unfaithful is not acceptable, whether it's a case that's outright banned by law or just socially unacceptable) he can't marry the sister in a religious ceremony as it's against our laws. He could marry her civilly, I think, or live with her unmarried, but he might face stigma when the story gets out. That said, I think this is either an ancient story or an urban legend.

Surely, though, if the groom’s religious beliefs were such that he’s fine with shagging his fiancée’s sister, days before the wedding, he’s not going to let that other little piece of Jewish law prevent him from marrying the sister if he wants to, either?
Miriam L 3 years ago
He wouldn't be able to. No Orthodox Rabbi would officiate a wedding without knowing the couple's relationship history and other biographical information to ensure they were allowed to marry by our laws. So he could marry her in a civil ceremony but not in a religious one. He might not care about that and the sister might not either, but it would ensure they can't pretend it didn't happen and just get married. But if you're not going to respect your fiancee and the immense meaning behind a religious wedding, it's not looking great for the sister

This happened to my cousin. Apparently she was having a destination wedding down in the keys. Her fiance booked the flights for her parents and herself, but "forgot" his wallet and would take the next flight.
He never showed up, he never booked the hotel or the restaurant. He checked himself into a mental institution back home.

ShellsBells 3 years ago
A lot of people with mental health and/or addictions tend not to be upfront as it be seen as a weakness. Maybe he just came into realization that he had an issue. Then it tends to be the "now or never" attitude on getting help. Yes, it's a crappy way to do it, but again, if it was a last second decision on getting help, good on him.

This ex-friend of mine (who has a daughter with another woman) was at his wedding reception with his new wife. While dancing, she said he should forget about his daughter. He thought she may be kidding and forgot about it. Later on, she told him again to forget about his daughter because she could give him as many kids as he wanted. He got super angry, told everyone to get the f**k out, party was over. The bride didn't know what the f**k happened, but he was already gone. He went to see the bride a week after, just to return the ring the bride's family gave him. He never spoke to her again.

There might be a certain degree of pretension/act until they've tied the knot. As a stepmother myself (who loves her SD, but is disgusted by her mother's controlling and toxic attitude), I can attest to the fact that marriage definitely changes the dynamic of these patchwork situations. Before we got married, my husband's ex would "just" belittle me and my input and try to keep me from having ANY say in raising her daughter, even things like me telling SD to stop clowning around at me at the dinner table, and me telling bio-mom that SD had had her bath on Sunday, when my then boyfriend forgot to mention it. Now, she definitely sees me as a threat to her motherhood. She tells her 5-year-old daughter that my nieces (who she's known and played with for 4 years) are not her "real" cousins. She insists that my husband spend more time alone with SD, even though SD is the one who chooses to go to our twins' room to play with all of us together. It's just warped since I've become a "real" SM

Here is a more upbeat story: the night before their city hall wedding, the bride and groom had separate big parties and got so wasted they both slept through the wedding. They didn't realize it until city hall called asking where they were, and they decided f**k it we'll do it later. They did eventually get married, and still are as far as I know, over 20 years later.

It's funny, because the city I live in (Bucharest, Romania) is veeery strict on such stuff - for example, you have to file the paperwork to get married in person (you can't send someone else to do it, both future spouses must be present) a month in advance and if you don't show up at the appointed time on the dot you lose your spot and have to refile all the paperwork...
Pizzagirl 91 3 years ago
It's probably the same in many different countries, it is definitely the same here in Germany. If, for example, one of you can't be there to file the paperwork (for job reasons etc.), they have to have a signed power of attorney for the other person to file the documents. And if you miss your appointment, you've got to book a whole new one.

In a smallish city or town, they might call in part because the celebrant will want to know if they are delayed so he or she should wait, or if it was called off so celebrant can head off to their duties elsewhere.

Turns out she caught the mother of the bride and the groom shagging. Safe to say we had an easy shift the next day as we didn't have a wedding to cater for.

Obligatory not me. I worked at a music venue in the Detroit area that was also a popular wedding reception location. Came into work one week in the fall, when pretty much every weekend is booked solid with weddings, and noticed Saturday was open, no one scheduled. Talked to the wedding planner, she tells me the groom cancelled... Odd. Talk to wedding planners younger brother, who was our head bar back.
He tells me that the groom, excited for the wedding, left work at lunch on Friday, bought a nice bottle of wine, and headed home to surprise his bride to be. Except, he was the one in for a surprise, as he walked into his new house to hear sounds coming from their bedroom.
He walked in to find his bride in bed with another man... His dad.
We tried to talk him into doing a big f**k you party because we'd never fill the space and there was no refund, but he declined.

A guy I dated had a dad who was extremely pervy with not just me but my boyfriend's best friend, also a woman and a girl I'd gone to school and Girl Scouts with since we were very young. We were all in our 30s at this point. He'd insist on making special accommodations for us during family events (sitting us on each side) and ensured pictures were taken with one or, preferably, both of us. And he would share them on social media and sometimes use the images for his profile pics. It was nothing short of fetishistic. Understand that he was married to my ex's mother this whole time. He was just a pervert who liked to get his jollies from younger attractive women who paid him attention. In this case, it was not romantic, it was "you're my boyfriend's/best friend's dad and we're being friendly and polite" and this jackass took advantage of it for his own reasons. We would have NEVER considered anything beyond smiling at him. But creepy dads pursuing their son's partner is an actual thing.

Yikes. Gross. I was a stay at home Dad and was always the “room mom” when my daughter was in school. When she was in kindergarten she would yell “Dad!” when I showed up to volunteer and some of her classmates also started yelling Dad when I stopped by. When the girls began middle school they set up a Facebook account for me so we could all stay friends (at the time I didn’t even know what Facebook was)These girls remained best friends all through their college years to this day and are like daughters to me and to think of exploiting them like the man in your story is extremely repulsive to me. My main job now is to listen, support and encourage them and if they had too much to drink to give them a ride no questions asked.

Leviticus 18:6-18 are basically a long list of people related to you through marriage you shouldn’t sleep with or people related to each other who you shouldn’t sleep with both of them. “They are your relative. It is a depravity.” When I read that as a kid I thought “Man people were barbarians back then. No one today would do this.” Humans are the same as we ever were.

Several years ago, I got a phone call from the maid of honor for a wedding I was going to attend (as a guest) two weeks hence. She was flustered, but managed to get out "There's no wedding, Groom called it off. He's in love with someone else."
Well, I didn't press. I was friends with both, so I knew that the full details would eventually make their way back to me.
Oh, and boy did they...
Turns out, a couple weeks before the wedding, Groom called Bride and said he was coming over. They needed to talk. When he got to her apartment, he broke down in tears and confessed that he was in love with someone else. He loved her, but couldn't marry her because he didn't love her in the way a bride deserves.
There was much crying and shouting over it all, but eventually the bride recovered from the news enough to ask him who he was in love with.
"Well," Groom said, "it's [Bride's Brother]."
The wedding was definitely off at that point. Now, five or six years later, Groom and Bride's Brother are married and happy. Though, I lost contact with Bride shortly after her wedding plans went tits up, so I'm not sure if she ever forgave the boys for that one.

I'm a musician. I work on an infamous street for drunken revelry and debauchery. One night, a bachelor party came in around the same time as a bachelorette party. The show I work with does special things like funny songs for special events, so I bring them both up at the same time to do something special. In the middle of this, on stage, they start making out. And they Do. Not. Stop. I finish my routine as best I can and get them offstage.
Later, as I'm looking around the audience, my eye catches on them again. They're in the back corner just going at it ,
while their respective parties hang out up near the front of the stage. And they are really getting into it. Hands down pants and up skirts. At some point they disappear. I take a break and head to the restroom. It's locked. I hear a woman screaming from within. Not moaning, not sighing. Screaming "f**k me harder!!!" I sit in the lounge area outside the bathroom for about 10 mins. The bachelor and bachelorette come out, looking a bit disheveled, but not too bad. They see me, and immediately want to chat (for some reason, people always want to get to know the musicians here.) there's curiously no guilt on them at all. I have to p**s like a race horse, but this is too good to pass up.
Come to find out, they both are getting married to other people, but know each other from having lived in the same small town of about 5,000 all their lives. They ran into each other for the first time since high school graduation at our bar and old feelings emerged that neither had ever attempted to act on. They don't stay long, and as they leave I hear the bachelor say "I have my own room, let's go there." The rest of the party stays till the show is over, partying hard and having fun. Possibly the best bachelor/bachelorette parties I've had. (Usually bachelor parties get too drunk and bachelorette parties devolve into crying fits and arguments)
Anywho, I wind up seeing the "bachelor" and "bachelorette" together at our bar and out in the street every night for 4 nights. Always holding hands and/or getting frisky.
They came back a little over a year later. They got married here in our town to each other instead of who they were engaged to that fateful night. Most of their respective bachelor/bachelorette show up for the event.
With this story, I always feel torn. Did I participate in the destruction of two relationships, or did I facilitate the meeting of two soulmates?

After the wedding at the reception, the newlyweds took forever to show up. They were nearly an hour late. When they did arrive they were arguing loudly the entire time. They got "introduced" and we all clapped as per tradition and they sat down at the main table in a huff.
Sometime between the appetizer and the main course the argument started again. The groom stormed off and my girlfriend and I were nosey so we went to see what was up.
He ended up in the hotel lobby on his cell phone. We thought nothing of it and we were about to go back when the wife shows up still obviously in her wedding dress and continues to ream him out.
Now for the first time, we can hear what the argument is about. He had invited his ex to the wedding. She showed up to the ceremony and that through the bride off. Apparently also...he had cheated on the new wife with the ex-girlfriend several times with the last time being only about a month prior to the wedding.
..additionally...the ex/girlfriend/mistress was on her way to come pick up the new husband to take him away from the new bride...cause she was "Acting crazy." according to the groom.
After a couple minutes of watching this train wreck of an argument, a s**tty rust bucket sedan shows up with the ex-girlfriend in it. The groom gets into the car with his ex or whatever the f**k she is and they drive off.
Last words went to the bride though who screamed at him as he tore off, "Well I guess I'm going to go back to f*****g your brother then you a*****e!"
Sooooo....they're no longer married now...

"Baffled" by the addition "3 days after the party".As if it would have been ok if it was during the bachelorette party.. I am very open-minded in these matters, but if there was no explicit agreement between both that this would be allowed - as a last fling - it is still cheating. And someone who uses their bachelorette as an excuse is going to find so many other excuses in the future girls/boys weekend, depression and really anything

Have to wonder- considering the number of times you hear about dumb things including cheating happening at a bachelor or bachelorette party, why the heck is it still a thing??? I always felt like that really starts a marriage off on a sour note - like you're losing 'freedom' by committing.. I mean unless it's a forced marriage, you're marrying by choice, so why the heck would you make a big deal by doing all stupid things?? Especially if you're thinking 'one last fling before tying down ' you're probably making a mistake marrying!!!

Bernd, I see your point. I suppose for me marriage or a partnership does add something extra, like you both agree you're in this for the long run. I guess that's a bit silly though, because a contract shouldn't be what hold you together. I still consider official partnership a big deal, if only for the heap of work that's to be done upon separating.

Can't remember whether it was the night before or a week before the wedding, but he told her he was only marrying her out of obligation for all the hard times she'd seen him through. She was devastated, left the city to go home, and he spent the next weeks wondering whether her 5 brothers were going to turn up to beat the c**p out of him, as he admittedly deserved (note: they didn't). The worst for me and my friends, was seeing his mates from work rallying round to comfort him and take him out drinking to cheer him up, while we knew the girlfriend was at home, absolutely broken hearted, when she'd done nothing to deserve it. Last I heard, he'd moved on, got married to a different girl, and cheated on her when she was 8 months pregnant, the POS. I think his first gf had a lucky escape.

I did the same. But canceled the first wedding a few months ahead of the date (I was still in love with my ex- and had no business being in a relationship at all, let alone getting married), and I canceled the second wedding a year ahead of the date because I wasn't in love with my fiancé. He was my best friend, but I didn't want to be married to him. Turns out, I don't want to be married to anyone, so yes, two divorces dodged and both ex-fiancés moved on and met women who DO want to be married.

Friend invites me to his wedding. He and fiance are fairly poor, have lived together for years.
They're both semi-disabled (his is PTSD, hers is physical) and on fixed incomes, and live in a somewhat expensive area.
They have three gift registries (Target, Macy's, Crate & Barrel) and a HUGE invite list - over 300 friends/family members. All the stuff on the registries is standard stuff like towels, coffee cups, flatware, etc.
Anyway, people fly out, get ready for wedding, two days before wedding is Bachelor party and friend gets drunk and admits that she's not really his fiance, they are just roommates and they have no intention of getting married they just needed the stuff. They're going to cancel the wedding tomorrow and keep all the gifts.
Had to protect him from getting his a*s kicked by about two dozen people. Then had to have the fiance come clean to everyone since he was too hungover.
They ended up returning most of the gifts to people - but a surprising number of people let them keep the gifts. As his grandfather said "If you needed these things that badly to lie like this, you must have been very desperate."

Best friends bachelor party a few years ago. He had dated his fiance for 6 or 7 years at that point. She made a male friend at work that became a groomsman. I hated him, didn't trust him and told my buddy that. The night of the party after huge amounts of alcohol the groom breaks down crying, leaves and walks home. Didn't say anything to anyone, just left. Found out the next day that the bride to be had been banging the piece of s**t groomsman for months and they were trying to work through it. He couldn't get past it and cancelled the wedding.

We knew a couple, I didn't go to the wedding, they were killed in a freak car accident after the ceremony, on the way to the reception, when an electrical pole was hit by lightning and landed on their car, killing them and their baby, instantly. They said the way the pole landed on the car, they knew they died instantly, which was fortunate because the car caught fire and burned. So the wedding turned into a funeral. So very sad! 💔😪😢

This happened maybe two weeks ago..
The night before the wedding groom ran out, butt naked, down the streets of an apartment complex in Eugene screaming "I'm not ready."
Long story short.. the wedding was beautiful.

Sister of the groom chatted with the sister of the bride. Just casual conversation but it came to light that almost 100% of what the bride had said besides her name was a complete lie. Sister of the groom calls him up and says he really needs to figure out if this is right. A few fights and some long thinking later the groom leaves her and leaves town.
It got worse though, turns out pretty much all the bride's friends had been lied to as well. They all stopped talking to her.

I was once seriously involved with a woman who told me her mother and brother had died in a plane crash. One day at her apartment, she was out on an errand and the phone rang. I answered it and found myself talking to her "dead" mother. And she never even had a brother. She had told me her first husband had died of a heart attack - but didn't add that it was caused by a heroine overdose. Just about everything she told me about herself turned out to be untrue. She had nothing to gain by any of these lies, and I am still puzzled.

My wife is a very friendly person and was just trying to get to know the girl but she got yelled at by the fiancé for “interrogating” her.

Lena Harris 3 years ago
I have no idea why the OP would only assume 3 lives. The bride and groom, plus all their family and friends need to not only help plan/attend a funeral, but the best man's family might actually start to resent the groom for allowing what happened to happen. That and suddenly becoming paralyzed means a complete change of the plans they had for their (b/g) future. Not to mention making the home wheelchair accessible. That's a heavy financial burden, and groom's work possibilities will be limited to jobs where walking isn't needed.

1 days before the wedding, the groom got drunk and was speeding across a bridge over Tampa Bay. He was driving a small Honda but hit a 4 seater pick-up so hard, it flipped over the railing, landed upside down and killed a man and his parents. The bride's parents were convinced that it was just an accident, and bailed him out. A reporter asked if they knew he had been convicted of drunk driving in Oregon. They did not, and revoked his bail, which they forfeited the bail, plus they did not have wedding insurance and lost a lot of money on that. He was sentenced to 4 years for the deaths of 3 people. Once again, Florida justice at work.

I've got a pretty good one. Not mine, but a friend of my wife. Destination wedding in South America (we live in the U.S.).
Because it was a destination wedding, they both had their bachelor/bachelorette down there. Bride to be went looking for the groom the night before the wedding. No one knew where he was...eventually found the dude locked in a bathroom with some local girl doing coke.
Bride was obviously pissed, but they went through with the wedding.
Cut to a few years later, we randomly went out to dinner with just me and my wife with the bride...turns out she never mailed in the wedding certificate. All this time they haven't been married.
She said she had too many red flags to go through with it. Dude has no idea they aren't really married, even though they have been married for years and have two kids together!

Sorry but that's dumb on her part because she didn't protect herself legally, as far as community property, depending on their state laws and common law marriage and the same goes for the children, though they don't need to be married for her to collect child support. And in some countries you must be there for a certain period of time before the wedding in order for marriage to be legal and binding. That's why many who have destination weddings have a civil wedding before the destination wedding because that's just the icing on the cake. Many countries you have to be there 12 days prior to the ceremony in order for the marriage to be legal and binding in the states. My niece is going through it now.

Only survivor was her 8 year old son who was thrown out of the car by the impact. He had to be taken by air ambulance and had multiple injuries plus mental health problems as he got a little older. Drunk driver survived and got 8 years jail time, out in 4. 1 year for each life he took. Since then he has been in and out of jail, drunk driving, drugs and driving drunk without a licence.

My cousin runs a popular upscale marriage venue and always tells the story way better than this so here is a rough overview. The groom's mom was a heavy drinker and got belligerent when she drank so understandably the bride wanted the groom to try to limit her drinking. The afternoon before the wedding the bride arrives to see groom's mom smashed with the groom himself giving her beers. Next thing my cousin knows (she was there to oversee preparations) the bride and groom are in a straight up fist fight which leads to an Anchorman-style street fight between members of both families in the parking lot.
Apparently they recently scheduled a new day for it. I can't imagine the tension there.

A few years ago now, I went out with a group of guy friends. We went to a few bars and ended up at one with a bachelorette party. After talking to them, I was the only married one in the group, and one of the bridesmaids was the only married one. We spent a good portion of the night talking while the rest of the group got plastered. They loaded into a van, and we followed them to their hotel to continue partying. We were playing cards when the bride and one my my friends wanted to go get more booze. They left and were gone for about 30 minutes before we noticed.
Went looking for them, and they were f**king in the back of his car. They finished up and saw three of us standing there. We left and the bride went back to the room. I'm still casual friends with the bridesmaid, and the wedding didn't happen.

The problem is at these parties, they always insist on insane amounts of booze, strippers, and places where the other gender can frequently be found. And since in some cases, the other attendees are not married or in a committed relationship and flirt, leading to the bride or groom flirting while intoxicated. These are the parties that tend to go wrong.

Right? Stripping is a job, just like any other, and as long as people willingly part with their money to see other people take off their clothes, this legitimate profession will continue to exist. No, I've never worked as a Stripper, but I've talked to many over the years and they've all been really put-together women. The stigma against women in this profession is real and it's really starting to irritate me.

Went to buddy's bachelor party (#3 of 4 actually). Typical night of drinking downtown and hitting up all the bars we frequented in college. Two of us are single and we get separated chasing girls. Get home the next morning to find the bachelor party attendees at my house. The bachelor is in the shower. I ask the best man how the night went. He says he and the bachelor took a random chick back to his cousins place. They didn't have a plan with her but one thing led to another and the best man is nailing her while the bachelor watches, naked. He tells us, "(bachelor) was just sitting there so I told her, 'you suck that d**k' and she did." They had a crazy 3-way and the cousins wife found out, was pissed cuz it took place in her kids playroom and she told the bachelorette. Wedding off. Best/grossest part was that the bachelor was in the shower because the best man pulled out and shot his load on his arm.

The best one I can remember hearing... The wedding occurred, reception occurs, and at the end of the meal, the groom stands to make his toast. He then directs all attendees to look under their place setting, and open the envelope thereunder. (He had arrived early, and placed an envelope under each and every one of the well over 100 place settings.) -- He explains that he had known for weeks that the bride and his best man had been having an affair (photographic evidence in envelope). He apologised to the Parents of his bride, and wished all a good night, then walked out of the venue. If I recall the story, the only reason he went through with anything was two-fold, first it was all already paid for (non-refundable), and; as a final screw-you to the bride, as he destroyed her reputation with everyone that knew her best...or thought they did.

There was one I read about that took place in the UK. Groom was a veteran of the British military, and lost one leg below the knee during the recent Middle Eastern unpleasantness. He'd been dating his fiancee off and on for years. They decide to get married after he returns home. He was never a great dancer before he lost his leg, and he's even more self conscious about it now, so he tells her he really doesn't want to dance with her at their wedding. She promises him he won't have to. Cue the wedding day. The DJ introduces them at the reception--and lo and behold, the dance floor's completely clear, and the bride's urging him to dance with her! Then she has the nerve to be upset when he says no. They have a huge fight right there on the dance floor, he throws his ring on the ground, he leaves with his best friend (the best man), and he has the marriage annulled immediately. Bride leaves town and nobody ever sees her again. Groom ultimately marries someone else (part 1),

The personality/brains of a slug but face/body of a supermodel. They lived a horrendously trashy lifestyle and I mean that in the filth sort of way. A small mobile home full of trash. Their dog had puppies that died. Days later the dead animals were just laying on their countertop in the kitchen going the way all dead animals do...in summer; the south; without AC. It was REALLY bad. They went on like it was nothing. So, they marry. 1 week later he files for divorce. Apparently he wasn't the only person OR "thing" she was having sex with. Still grossed out 25 years later.

The best one I can remember hearing... The wedding occurred, reception occurs, and at the end of the meal, the groom stands to make his toast. He then directs all attendees to look under their place setting, and open the envelope thereunder. (He had arrived early, and placed an envelope under each and every one of the well over 100 place settings.) -- He explains that he had known for weeks that the bride and his best man had been having an affair (photographic evidence in envelope). He apologised to the Parents of his bride, and wished all a good night, then walked out of the venue. If I recall the story, the only reason he went through with anything was two-fold, first it was all already paid for (non-refundable), and; as a final screw-you to the bride, as he destroyed her reputation with everyone that knew her best...or thought they did.

Sounds like bachelor/bachelorette parties were the biggest s**t on earth.

Went to a wedding that was supposed to start at 2 pm...the groom and groomsmen were there but the bride and the bridesmaids did not show for almost a hour. Turns out that the bridesmaids and bride thought the the car that was behind them on the way to the wedding was the groom's and decided that they should moon them...the car behind them was a undercover cop, which pulled them over and escorted them to the police station to fine each person. The poor groom thought that he had been stood up! Once they all arrived the wedding still happened but everything was behind for the rest of the day.

There was one I read about that took place in the UK. Groom was a veteran of the British military, and lost one leg below the knee during the recent Middle Eastern unpleasantness. He'd been dating his fiancee off and on for years. They decide to get married after he returns home. He was never a great dancer before he lost his leg, and he's even more self conscious about it now, so he tells her he really doesn't want to dance with her at their wedding. She promises him he won't have to. Cue the wedding day. The DJ introduces them at the reception--and lo and behold, the dance floor's completely clear, and the bride's urging him to dance with her! Then she has the nerve to be upset when he says no. They have a huge fight right there on the dance floor, he throws his ring on the ground, he leaves with his best friend (the best man), and he has the marriage annulled immediately. Bride leaves town and nobody ever sees her again. Groom ultimately marries someone else (part 1),

...and she respects his wishes and doesn't force him to dance with her at their wedding. They're still happily married.
