Every bride and groom wants their wedding day to be memorable, but some weddings are memorable for all the wrong reasons. No matter how much planning goes into a big day, things can go wrong, and now folks are sharing some of the worst things they’ve witnessed.
BuzzFeed asked their community to share some of wildest and disastrous things they’ve encountered at weddings, and folks were more than happy to share.
They include:
- "I saw the bride and groom get in a huge argument where the bride produced their actual marriage license and set it on fire in front of the entire reception. Good times."
- "I was the flower girl in a wedding when I was 6. The ceremony was going fine until the kiss. The groom looked to the crowd, laughed, and said, 'I don't want to kiss her.' Everyone thought he was joking, but he really would not kiss his bride and left her standing there totally embarrassed."
- "There were four separate fistfights, and the bride was involved in two of them. She threw the first punch in the second fight."
- "During the best man speech, the best man proposed to the maid of honor. It totally stole the night from the bride and groom… The bride and groom did NOT know this was going to happen. No one did."
- "Someone bit the DJ because he refused to play a certain song."
- "An ex-boyfriend of the bride got super drunk at the reception and started rambling loudly about how the marriage was wrong and how she was the love of his life. He was there with his new (and soon-to-be ex-) girlfriend."
- "The bride never showed up. My cousin was the groom and had about 500 people in attendance. He got on the mic and said there was no bride. We had the party anyway. He married someone else two years later."
- "My brother and sister-in-law thought it would be fun to have their dogs walked down the aisle after their flower girl spread the flower petals. The dogs thought that midway down the aisle was the perfect place for a shitting photo op on the white runner."
- "I worked weddings for a living and once saw the best man get loaded, give a speech, profess his love for the bride, and say how they had slept together two nights prior.”
- "About an hour before my cousin’s wedding, she made the comment that her next wedding wasn’t going to be as big and complicated. She was right. Her second wedding was super small."
- "During the first wedding I ever attended, the bride and groom walked down the aisle after the ceremony to the song 'Highway to Hell.' They were divorced two months later."
- "The bride showed up late to her own wedding, crying and trying to compose herself because she had just said goodbye to the other guy she was seeing. The marriage lasted maybe six months."
- “The bride sang 'Someone Like You' by Adele — an iconic breakup song — directly to the groom during the ceremony. The marriage lasted nine months."
