Jimmy Fallon, the legendary host of The Tonight Show, keeps us laughing even when we’re feeling blue. This time, Jimmy asked his adoring fans to share the most spectacular and hilarious wedding fails, seeing as wedding season’s roaring with full force. And we’ve got to tell ya, having read through these, no tiny mishaps at weddings will ever scare us again!

Scroll down, upvote the best #WeddingFail tales, and if you’re feeling up to it, share your own funny stories in the comment section.

While we’d all love to have the ‘perfect’ wedding, expecting absolutely everything to go swimmingly during your happy day is simply unattainable. Anna and Sarah from the Wedding Society told Bored Panda that having a ‘perfect’ wedding is impossible and that we should instead embrace the fact that mistakes (big and small) will pop up during the big day in one form or another. And we’ll be much happier if we simply let go of our desire for perfection and realize that our wedding isn’t a movie.

According to wedding experts Anna and Sarah, we’ve got to change the way that we approach wedding celebrations. Perfection isn’t something that we should aim for—instead, we should focus on the marriage itself and celebrating the love between two people with those closest to our hearts.

“It is well and truly time to reframe how we see weddings. It is one six-hour period where potentially hundreds of factors, people, and services merge together into one point to deliver a single event. It's physically impossible that something won't go wrong, whether you're aware of it or not,” they said that we have to be realistic.

Of all wedding traditions, this sentence should be dropped first.

“The best way to approach your day is to expect that something will go wrong and to know that it's okay because it's just par for the course,” the duo from The Wedding Society gave Bored Panda some spot-on advice.

“It's not a movie,” they added that we shouldn’t expect something like we’ve seen dozens of times in rom-coms on the silver screen.

They look severely over hemmed, I wonder if they could have released the seams? I know the pants would have been too long but at least he could have made a choice.

Fortunately, he has a wonderful smile because everything about this suit is so awful. The weird baggy/long cut of the vest, the too-long dress sleeves, the shiny tie, the floating oversize bout, and obv, the pants.

You can see by the seam near his knees that a very bad, very quick last minute joke has been played on him and his pants could easily have been made the right length in a couple of minutes.

That is one awful adjustment service... Look at that uneven, puckered stitching. Great socks though!

You can clearly see the deep hem - this was done on purpose to show the socks.

I think I've figured it out. Nobody would leave that much fabric in a hem job. It's a rental tux and the pants were hemmed that way for the previous person (who obviously couldn't have the fabric cut out of the pants for a normal hem length) and the hem was never removed. I also have to believe that they took the pic as a joke and then fixed it themselves

Look how far up they were hemmed. Wouldn't take five minutes to let the hem out.

You could have taken them down. You can see the temporary hem line. There's an in-joke here.

This could have been fixed as you can see the. Ridiculous sized hems. So it must be intentional.

...but isn't the fabric still folded under? He COULD have the extra length, if he wanted, right?

There seems to be plenty of fabric that could have been let down,you can see that the hem is about 8" up the leg (very poor hemming job BTW). Or perhaps he just wanted to show off the argyle socks?

Screw it, with those socks, just cut the pants off to above the knees, borrow a guest’s small brown leather purse, hang it around your waist, call it a kilt and be done with it.

“This event, like the rest of life, is perfectly imperfect. Embrace that and you'll be on the right track for what's to come out of that event—your marriage,” Anna and Sarah suggested that embracing the fact that not everything will go as you’d like it to is a good approach to have not just regarding your wedding but also life itself.

I can't tell if she's laughing or crying - if it's laughter, they're gonna be telling this story at their 75th anniversary.

The whole dove thing at weddings is horrible already, but who releases them inside? But that DJ deserves a big tip.

She probable filed for divorce and moved to another part of the country because she saw all the signs of a future abusive marriage with a jerk and decided to get as far away from him as she could.

CPR doesn't "revive" people who go into cardiac arrest, that's just in the movies. It's just to keep blood circulating until the person can get medical attention. And no one would be oblivious to someone getting "5+ min of CPR" mid-wedding ceremony. This didn't happen.
