    I was accosted by a HUGE swarm of ladybugs right as I entered the church. I walked down the aisle intentionally trying to shake my skirts a little extra with each step. It was so funny. No one noticed but my maid of honor and father because it happened at the last second going in and we were the only ones there. I have this image in my mind of the aisle behind me strewn with rose petals and confused ladybugs but I was too happy to check at the time. I've heard a single ladybug landing on you is good luck.

    My daughter was professional latin ballroom dancer, so at her wedding everyone was expecting something spectacular for their first dance. However, her husband, by his own admission has :" no sense of rhythm and 2 left feet " and she refused to show off because it wasn't about her but them as a couple. She choreographed a simple slow dance , comfortable to do for him, beautiful to watch and general consensus was that THEY looked amazing on the dance floor.

    I “saved” myself for marriage, and when my husband and I got married, we were sooo exhausted, we didn’t really do much that night. My mom casually asked about how the night went and I casually said that we were tired so didn’t do much. The next day, we had a post wedding ceremony and all of my friends, neighbors etc were coming up to me at the party and whispering “oh, I’m sorry he couldn’t get his thing up”. I have never shared a secret with my mom since. 13 years of wild sex with my husband and still going strong!

      But also, I'm curious. You guys that save yourselves, how can you know if the sex is wild if you actually have never tried anything else? How do you know it's not mediocre? My first boyfriend was someone I stayed with for 6 years, we moved in together after 2 years. He was my first and I thought we had really good sex. Then we split up (10 years ago) and I've had other relationships since, and I know now me and my first boyfriend actually had really bad sex, because now I know how good sex actually feels like

      @@LinneAzalea you don’t know and some people struggle- but if everything else is working out in the marriage than it’s not enough to require a divorce (unless one sex starved and it’s ruining their life). In this case, It’s encouraged that they try new things, “work on it” and see a sex therapist. If they can find a way to make it work, they do! The way I see it is a means to an end- I am married so that I can spend the rest of my life with my best friend (husband) and build a beautiful family and life together. Sex is only a hiccup along this road. To be clear, I didn’t have 13 years of wild sex right away! I actually had a hard time finding pleasure in it for a long time!

  • @vociferonheraldofthewinter2284

    The issue of the bride and groom not getting a nice meal at their own wedding is a really common problem. They're shaking hands, hugging well-wishers, running to the bathroom, cutting the cake and doing that photo op, perhaps changing into their reception outfits, etc and they often don't get to the buffet table until dead last.
    I worked for a caterer years ago who had seen this happen way too many times. So when we'd bring the food to the event, she'd fix the bride and groom beautiful plates herself before we did anything else. A sampler dessert plate, mains, an appetizer plate and make them look beautiful. Then she'd cover them and set them out of the way. Only then would we get the signal to set out the buffet. All staff knew that you do NOT touch those dishes and protect them from anyone who didn't get the memo.
    When the time came for the bride and groom to relax and enjoy their meal, they'd be served properly, as if they were at a restaurant. Their slice of cake would even be tucked away the second the cake cutting was done. (And the top layer would be packaged to go home. Tradition.)
    That ended the disappointment of only eating scraps off the buffet at their own wedding.

I'm newly diabetic. That made me upset bc when you're on the go, you push it to the limit, that would have made me cry so bad! Thank you for sharing bc it made me feel so good knowing someone understands what that might feel like, you don't have to be diabetic to have low blood sugar and feel tired, irritable, or emotional, we've all been there.

This did turn out to be a very treasured memory of me and Granny together as I assisted her getting ready for my wedding before the rest of my family came back to get us to the church. After my new husband and I were thrown out of our reception at 1am, I went back to the house for my luggage and found Granny there alone again. She was so pleased to be able to assist me get ready for my honeymoon night. Another treasured memory.

    My grandma was awful at my older cousin’s wedding last year. My cousin (groom) was the first of her grandkids to get married. I will be the second next year when my fiancé and I tie the knot. The first sign of trouble was getting her there. The wedding was in Shreveport, LA and we live near Nashville, TN. She lives near Columbus, OH so we took her down with us. She was insufferable the whole ride there. Then comes the actual wedding the next day.
    She makes a scene bc she didn’t get to sit in the front. She makes a scene bc she didn’t get to sign the guest book. She pretends to loudly cry in the middle of the ceremony. She starts clinging to the father of the bride. She then clings to the groom’s brother, my oldest cousin. This cousin is single and looks like Thor. Tall, blonde, and ripped. She refuses to let him go. My sister asks her if she can dance with our cousin bc our cousins are like brothers to us. Grandma YANKS HER BY HER HAIR in the middle of the dance floor during the reception. And then during slow dances, she tried to yank my fiancé (then bf) away from me. Several months later, she grabbed him by the face and tried to forcibly kiss him but that’s a story for another day.
    And that is why my grandmother will not be invited to my wedding.

Not just the flowers, the boxes we built after treating the wood to weather it for over 6 months. So while we're taking photos we're watching our guests leave in large groups.

    My mom occasionally talks about her disaster of a wedding reception.
    -Her friends decided to decorate/prank her car by putting little bows all over it and she had just got it painted red, so when all the bows got taken off, there were little pink squares all over the car.
    -They had also filled the car up to the roof with round cereal, (think corn pops) so when she opened the car door they all spilled out and the people who owned the parking lot she was in came out and yelled at her to clean up the mess she made. She did, still in her wedding dress mind you, but she couldn't get all the cereal out of her car and maggots' ended up infesting it days later.
    -The only thing her husband insisted on during the wedding planning was to pick the first dance song, she was so excided to see what he picked and didn't find out what it was until the DJ called them up for it. It was "Used to love her" by Guns and Roses. (Look up the lyrics if the title isn't enough to convince you how bad of a choice it was for a first dance song, much less a wedding.)
    -She also couldn't find her husband for the first dance, so she went to the bathroom in tears, only to find him there kissing one of her bridesmaids. When she asked what the heck he was doing he simply told her to shut up and that it was his last day of freedom.
    -When she eventually managed to get him on the floor for their dance, they danced for about five seconds before MIL drunkenly pushed her out of the way proclaiming loudly she was dancing with her son.
    -Oh and, the person who was video taping the whole thing forgot the cap on the camera, so no picture, just sound.
    My mother ended up divorcing him less than a year later because he was abusive and she has been in several long lasting relationships since, however she has stated she is never getting married again. The boyfriend she's with now did get her a ring and kind of asked her, (it wasn't a down on one knee thing, it was more like a promise if she ever changed her mind) she told him if she's still alive and they're still together by 2040, she'll consider it.

    The allergy situation is actual grounds for a lawsuit. They can sue her for medical bills and probably the cost of the whole ceremony.
    *Edit* I did some digging for you guys on the original post. She never did mention her allergy to Raspberries to the caterer, but she did about the little ones nut allergies. If the kids ate the nuts then yes there would be possibilities that the police could have been involved at that point and arrested for whatever 3 charges they wanted that would cover an malicious attack to cause an allergic reaction. However for the bride since she ordered a recipe that didn't contain her allergy, raspberries, she didn't mention her allergy. Of which the caterer changed and unknowingly added the allergen into the recipe. In this case with the bride no arrest could be made because as OP kinda clarified she only knew about the Littles' allergies and not the brides. As of this it is a Lawsuit and no arrest could be made, at most, they could have called the cops to tell the caterer to expect to have to go to court. Unfortunately though with this information I found... this probably wouldn't hold up in court.

    I’m sorry- loading up a “take-home-plate” at a wedding is SO RUDE unless you’ve specifically been invited to by the couple. I have a family member who hoards food like that and we’ve had to put the smack down more than once. Taking a box of food when the bride hasn’t had any is such bad manners.
    Also- a lot of these situations could’ve been avoided if people just grow some balls and communicate CLEARLY AND HONESTLY with guests and family. No, you can’t bring your baby here, it’s a party for grown ups. You’ll need to either stay in or find a sitter. No, you cannot take this cabin that we paid for. You’ll need to find other accommodations. We’d really appreciate it if you don’t take all the cheesecake- the bride hasn’t even gotten any yet. Say it firmly, with a smile. Then thank them for coming.

      A similar thing happened at the wedding of the elder brother of my college bestie. It was a two day event. A couple was invited along with their son (maybe 4 or 5 year old). During the music they insisted on nursery rhymes. On day two the family had arranged for a bus to transport all the guests to the reception venue. The couple tried to delay everything because their kid was asleep. They could have easily joined us later but instead asked to postpone the reception. So enetitled.

    There's an incriminating photo of me taken right after the ceremony at my wedding where I'm wild-eyed and thinking, "Holy shit. What. Have. I. Just. Done?!"
    For context, I was super young (23) and never wanted a ceremony/reception, and would have preferred just going to the courthouse. My mother pressured me into having a big wedding because "I was her only daughter," which really translated to, "You're getting the wedding I [my mother] really wanted." When buying my wedding dress, for example, by the time I had tried on 10 dresses, I was hot, irritated, overwhelmed, and seriously considering throwing myself into traffic. I begrudgingly put on number 11 and although I specifically stated I DID NOT want a strapless ballgown, my mother started crying happy tears so I admitted defeat and ended up with an effing strapless ballgown I hated. My husband-to-be (who was 10 years older) was also very pushy and he was behaving in ways that I can now identify as abusive.
    By the time I wanted to bail on the entire thing, my parents had already spent a ton of money so I felt like I had to go through with it or I'd be disappointing my mother. The wedding was beautiful, of course, and it was wonderful to see my extended family, but I absolutely hate being the center of attention and could only feel dark sense of dread.
    Seventeen days after we got married, my husband and I both ended up in jail for 48 hours for domestic abuse because he tried to strangle me to death and I gave him a bloody nose trying to get him off me. I lasted 5 more years with this man.
    I've been happily divorced now for 4 years and have a good life. Listen to your gut ladies, and don't let anyone bully you into a wedding (or marriage) you don't want. 🖤🥔

    Mine wasn’t horrendous but more hysterical. I lived in a block of flats (apartment building for non UK people) and I lived on the 10th floor. I was in my wedding dress, with my parents waiting for the lift/elevator to get to my floor as the wedding car was waiting downstairs. Well, the lift never arrived and so I ended up walking down 20 flights of stairs, my dad holding the front of my dress, me holding the sides and my mum holding up the back to prevent it getting filthy on the stairwell floors. We laughed our heads off all the way down and still do 14 years later! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The preacher was reading from 1 Corinthians, love is kind, love is patient, etc. We get to love is not irritable and hear my husband's cousin, who is also a close friend, snicker in the back of the church. That snicker quickly turned to open laughter that spread across the church like wildfire! Everyone is laughing because my beloved is notoriously gruff. I'm just staring at the preacher struggling to maintain a straight face when I feel my beloved's hands twitch, turn to look and see that he has turned purple in an attempt to contain his laughter! I lost it! It was a solid five minutes before the uproar settled down enough to continue with our ceremony. Still going strong 23.5 years later!

Then there was a mix up with the caterer and we had no one to cut the cake, but my mother in law’s friend was a caterer and she jumped up and cut the cake for us.

Also my new MIL went around telling everyone it wasn't actually our real wedding and we would have a bigger better one later. She did it because she always needed everything to be "the best" and appearances were very important to her. She seemed to be the only one who felt our wedding wasn't up to her standards and so went around telling that lie which was news to me and my new husband. When I heard about it I asked who exactly was going to be paying for this lavish 2nd wedding we were apparently going to have, and the answer was not her.

    7:42 this hits way too close to home for me, not from a wedding but a 'graduation' party. My mother decided when I graduated we would wait until my younger brother was back home so then "everyone would be there and it would be better." She said. TWO. YEARS. LATER. Still no graduation party, and by then I didn't care and didn't want one. Welp, my younger brother was finally home, and my mom decided to have a surprise party for 'me' ( this is where I add I have anxiety, and a surprise party is my idea of hell ) and invited a bunch of family members and got a big cake. Only 3 family members showed up out of the 30+ she invited, she then proceeded to tell me all the excuses they gave for not coming ( all while I slowly got more and more depressed and angry because the party was never for me to begin with it was for HER to make herself look good in front of my younger brother ) "It is 2 years after the fact, why would you have a party??" one said. "I thought you weren't having one?" said another, " I thought this was for ____ not ___". So I got to sit there at what my mother said was 'my' graduation party, all while she tried to show my younger brother the neat things she bought, asking him if it is good, and he just keeps giving me the 😬 face and cringing. Later that year I went to a family xmas party ( the LAST one I went to ) and while sitting next to my mother had people asking her "why would you have a party 2 years after the fact? Nobody is going to go to that!" so I chimed in and said " Yeah, thanks for punishing me for my mother's stupidity, it was a party I didn't even know about but, thanks for not showing up and being a bitch, good job."

When ordering the food, she had specifically and very carefully asked which foods did not have nuts because she was seriously allergic. They assured her that the food she had picked did not, and even labelled it as ‘no nuts’, knowing full well that it did contain nuts. She had a severe anaphylactic shock and died in hospital. The judge on sentencing said that a prison sentence was just because they had been aware of the situation and deliberately ignored her needs.

Keep in mind, we're both very introverted, so our minds were more or less focused on making it all the way down to the altar as quick as we reasonably could. I felt beautiful, radiant, and so excited to be getting married to my wonderful husband. We're about halfway there when I realized that my foot has gotten tangled with my dress. I panic, because I don't want to stop to fix it and make everyone think I'm trying to make a break for it, but I also don't know how to discreetly untangle my foot from 3 layers of dress. During all of this, my dad has carried on at his speed walk pace, having remained blissfully unaware of my issue. At this point, I notice my grooms expression turn from one of adoration to amusement as he and everyone else in attendance realize what's going on (still minus my father). I try to stagger the last few feet to the end of the aisle without tripping as I hear whispers of "she's caught on her dress" from the attendees. Finally, I make it to the end, and my sister and best maid of honor in the world rushes over to fix the skirt, somehow making it look as though she's only fixing the train (my savior).

    True stories from my wedding.
    -The woman who did our cakes called in tears from the reception before we got there. She had baked the cake prior, thawed it to decorate it, froze it again then thawed it to bring to the reception that morning. It collapsed. It had molded. We used the bachelor cake. She sent us a hand written letter of apology the following week in which we feared that she might actually take her life as a result (she didn't.)
    - Father in law, big drinker, bought cases of booze for an open bar. As a result:
    -- Future sister in law kept paying a dollar to dance with me and eventually felt me up.
    -- Two fights broke out after we left involving in laws and friends. This resulted in 3 arrests, a broken windshield when someone attacked another's car with a champagne bottle
    -- Friend of ours fell on the floor dancing and one of the bridesmaids proceeded to mount and dry hump him.
    - 2 people spent the night in jail.
    - At least one divorce can be attributed to the event.
    - Cops set up across the road from the center and just started pulling people over for DUI as they left the parking lot.
    Fortunately this all happened after we'd left. Her dad called us on our honeymoon and I watched my wife cry as she got the stories.

After the catering was set up, adequate for the number of guests invited, the DJ was waiting for guests to arrive before starting the music. After an hour, the bride and groom were asked if the guests got the right date and location since nobody had yet shown up. After two hours, the guests at the hall were the DJ, security, caterer team , hall owner and married couple, probably a dozen people in all who ended up eating and dancing with the couple for about 45 minutes ending the event very early and taking many leftovers home.

We where having a small almost exclusively family wedding in my brothers yard. Her mother and brother and several other of her relatives said they where coming. She had called them just a couple days before and they said they would be on the way soon.
    So the big day comes and we have not heard from her family, Her brother was meant to walk her down the isle. She was frantic, she couldn't get a hold of anyone and well the wedding is about to start. left with no other choice, she asked my oldest brother to give her away and we got hitched.
    We had a slightly bigger reception with more family and friends scheduled for the evening. My wife franticly calling thinking the worse may have happened. She finally got a hold of them that evening at the reception, they had never planned on coming all along. several sisters, brothers and her mother just ghosted her after saying they would be there. She was an emotional wreck.
    We have been married 25 years together over 30 and she doesn't speak to any of them anymore.

This time was just family, a close friend did the ceremony and my precious (now 15 yr old) stepdaughter walked me down the "aisle" ❤️ I let her pick her dress and help me choose mine. It was a lovely day ☺️

    My dad ministered 2 of his friends' wedding. A month before the wedding, the caterer backed out, as well as the DJ, both of whom were family members. Day of the wedding, the bride asked if I wanted to come to their Airbnb and get ready with the wedding party. It was then that she pulled me aside and asked if I minded being the "DJ". All I would have to do was press play on an iPad when it came time for her to come down the aisle. I agreed, despite being anxious, because I wanted to help. Fast forward to the venue. Groom comes up to me, frantic, asks if I had the speaker. "what speaker?" Apparently, someone was supposed to give me a Bluetooth speaker to play the wedding song on when the time came. No one had. He gets a bit snappy with me, but my dad gets him to back off and then calms me down from having a panic attack (I have anxiety btw). Turns out one of the guests had a speaker, so they let us use it. Safe! So I spend some time fiddling around with the iPad and speaker, making sure they connect properly and making sure everything is charged. So, it's go time. I sit in the back of the pews to make sure that the bride can hear the music, and so that I'm out of sight. My dad gives the cue and... Nothing.
    I'M OUT OF WIFI RANGE!!
    That's right. The venue's Wi-Fi didn't reach to the actual outdoor area they were getting married at and the bride didn't download the song, so when I hit play, nothing happened. I begin to panic. Like full on can't breathe panic attack. My dad came to see what's wrong and I tell him the dilemma. So, we start walking backwards toward the main building to see when I will get back into range. I was in the parking lot before it would connect. Now it's time to test the Bluetooth range. How far away from the iPad can I get the speaker before they disconnect? So my dad grabs the speaker and walks back to the seating area, placing it on the last pew where I'd been sitting. I check the iPad. They're still connected, thank god.
    So I crank the volume all the way up, and my dad does the same on the speaker. I cross all my fingers and toes, wait for the signal again, then hit play.
    IT WORKED!!!
    I watched the wedding from the parking lot, crying my eyes out as I came down from the adrenaline rush of the panic attack. Afterward, at the reception the bride got drunk and couldn't stop giving me hugs and telling me how amazing I was for working things out. Most stressful wedding I've ever been to.

    Years ago I worked for a catering company. At one wedding location we were busy getting the food ready when the bakery delivery guy showed up with the cake. (He was running late!) as he carried in the last box, the top of the cake, he tripped and fell! Destroyed the cake top in front of the bride and her mother! Needless to say there was a great deal of screaming and tears! We managed a fix, while it didn’t look like the original top, it did fool most people!
    Another wedding we had, we arrived and were in the midst of setting up when the power to the entire hall went out and we were informed by the power company, would remain out for hours! The wedding reception went on without a hitch as we negotiated electric power from the local gas station who had a supply of extension cords in exchange for dinner for the employees and candles from the church next door!

    My wedding was outside in a courtyard of a beautiful stone church that was built in 1908. During the ceremony, a few bees decided that they really liked all the fresh flower bouquets we were holding. I've been told that at one point one was crawling up the back of my dress under my veil, and my sisters (also bridesmaids) said they were trying to land on their bouquets and some even walked on their hands! The minister snapped his binder closed trying to get one that was buzzing around his head during the ceremony and everyone laughed lol. At the time, I was just praying I wouldn't get stung because I'm allergic to bees! They didn't sting me, and now it's a really funny memory. The most common comments I get about my wedding are 1. The bees. and 2. How much fun our wedding was :)

    At my wedding our original cake fell before we had a chance to see it. My elderly neighbor who was a retired baker made it for us, free of charge. She felt so bad that she went back home during our ceremony and made a quick one tier cake. She arrived with the cake right after we finished our first dance. It was adorable and delicious. But that wasn't the worst part. My aunt, who invited her co-works to my wedding without our permission, gave all the leftover food and cake to them. My husband and I barely ate during the reception do to all the picture taking and other wedding shenanigan's. We only had one bite of the cake for the pictures. But all and all we've been happily married for 7 years.

    I’ve been to a few authentic Indian weddings. And I’ve seen Indians taking the food/desserts from the reception home in Tupperwares or the catering people will provide the take out containers if you ask them.
    The best wedding I went to was where an uncle of the bride asked the dessert bar to pack up 6 containers of ice cream (Indian weddings serve ice cream for desserts not a cake) for him to take home.
    Found out from the bride later that the ice cream melted by the time he got home (1.75hrs car drive home). He called her and her mother and complained about the ice cream melting. He didn’t take the 6 small containers he took 6 9lbs tubs of ice cream. No one at the wedding got any ice creams. Needless to say he was not invited to the bride’s brothers wedding a year later!

    A couple at my church got married around 6 years ago (they’re divorced now). I offered to make cupcakes instead of a sheet cake, as it would make it easier to serve, and the wedding cake. I asked how many guests replied that they would come. The groom said that he had invited 150 people from his AA and Narcotics Anonymous groups. I told him that it didn’t mean that 150 people would show up. I asked the bride. Same response. So, I made over 200 cupcakes (for just in case, plus because of everyone from church that would attend). Another lady from church was making the food and she had been told the same thing as I was told. Simply because the couple expected all 150 people would show up even without confirmation. Only 2 people out of the 150 people that they invited from their groups showed up. Two. And, because this couple couldn’t afford much, the other lady and I did everything out of our own pockets. Very frustrating all around. We had tried to get them to confirm the invites, but they believed that since they had invited 150 people, all would show. We tried to get them to understand otherwise, but they wouldn’t hear any different.

    We had an amazing reception with a ton Of delicious food! However….there was ONE item that wasn’t necessarily fancy but was an homage to our relationship which was several Chick-fil-A nuggets trays. It’s a long story but we ordered 10 trays of nuggets to be mixed in with the other fancy foods. The one thing I wanted was Chick-fil-A nuggets because it meant something to my new husband and I. When I was saying goodbye after they said the nuggets were gone I saw plates and plates and plates of an eaten nuggets or half eaten nuggets in the trash. Everyone had filled their entire plate with Chick-fil-A nuggets and didn’t even leave a crumb. As silly as it was, it was so sad to me because that was the one thing that we requested to represent our years long dating relationship that started when my husband was 14 years old and could only afford to take me to Chick-fil-A for dates. Despite asking my family and the caterers and everyone else to please save me a few nuggets to represent how we started, I didn’t get a single one and was so sad to see how many were in the trash. I know it doesn’t matter and I know in the scheme of things it’s just a small insignificant thing but at the time it made me so sad

    I have been to several weddings, the one thing I hate is when the couple is pulled in multiple directions and barely get to eat. I became a unofficial "dad " of a couple from my work. I had the privilege of being " dad " to the young man. The young lady as well. When they got engaged, I had the privilege of walking her down the aisle, sitting with her mother.
    Before the wedding ended, I ordered some basic food... burgers and fries for the wedding party because I knew they would have no time to eat at all. They were all relaxed and able to enjoy themselves; with their blessing, I kept certain things moving, like the receiving line, helping the MOH collect all the gifts in the MOB's car for security reasons, getting mothers with small children, elderly, those with mobility issues first through the buffet line, communication with the planner with the dances, and finally making sure the new couple got to sit down with their meals. Anyone who tried to get them to meet or do whatever, I and the mom told them after they are done eating. I suggest getting the wedding party food before the guests pull them every direction...its their wedding, they are not there to be master and mistress of ceremonies.

    Well, our wedding wasn't the kind where you have a huge number of guests. It was held in a temple and only church members who have received a recommend can go inside, so our plan was to have a reception back home after the honeymoon. But out of the several siblings of mine who had these recommends, and their spouses, only one brother and one sister showed up, along with my parents. Oh, also my husband's ex-step-mother (complicated family) and two of my old Sunday School teachers who I honestly never thought would really care enough to make the effort since I was a 14-year-old brat when I was in their class, so that was really sweet of them. But yeah, that's my family. I was the youngest of nine and clearly the magic was gone for attending family weddings, or maybe I'm just not that important to them. Kinda wonder how many went to my sister's even though she was married a year after I was.
    But worse than that was that my husband's ex-stepmother was a bitter old woman with no joy to be found... and was the type of old fart who just had to have her say and expound her great and grand knowledge. Well, my dad also had this old fart habit. We were married in a town I didn't know well and so when we decided to go out to eat after the wedding and before everyone went their way (and more importantly, we went ours, winky face) I had no idea where to go. I was more of a Pizza Hut type back then and didn't know any nice sit down restaurants in town.
    So my brother recommends the Olive Garden. Yeah, whoo hoo, but I'd never been there, so what did I know? And don't worry, I wasn't sitting in an Olive Garden in a wedding dress, just a regular dress I'd brought along. But yeah, butthead wanted him some of those infinite breadsticks (I mean, fair) so off we went where I got a plate of something sloppy and gooey looking that I couldn't choke down if my life depended on it because I was so nervous. This is where the two old farts come in, because they OF COURSE got talking about politics and each just had to have the last word in rumbling old person speak while my brother, the king of ADHD, kept throwing out little prompts to get them going again every time they started to lose steam or my mom managed to reroute the conversation. A-hole. My brother, that is.
    So there I am with my new husband, a nervous wreck, listening to two old porridges exchanging, "Well, actually..." conversation about who the crap knows what anymore, just waiting for everyone to finish eating and shut up and let us go learn to be married people a little bit... but when it's time to go, my husband finds out his ex-step-mom's plane doesn't leave for four hours and instead of doing as SHE ASKED HIM TO and dropping her off at the airport, where let's face it, people chill for that long all the time even if security wasn't as high back then, well... my husband who was still unable to let anyone down due to years of them gaslighting him in alternating shifts, insisted she wait with us in OUR BRIDAL SUITE. So we sat for two hours watching reruns on tv waiting until it was a reasonable time, by his standards, to drop her off.
    I'll say this... as much as I dislike his family, that was on him. She tried to talk him out of it and I'll bet you anything she would much rather have sat four hours in an airport than with two nervous newlyweds for two. The good news is we've been married 29 years anyway, and he doesn't really talk to his family anymore. Went full no contact years ago which I thought was a bit much but also can't really blame him for. One too many broken promises by his dad and he just gave up.

    I have celiac and when a restaurant feeds me gluten when I specifically tell them I can't have it I usually don't go to that place ever again. Places that don't take allergies and intolerances seriously just make my blood boil. AND I've had people tell me that my celiac is all in my head. -_-

Fortunately my partner kicks ass and we've been awesome. Celebrated 10 years on Aug 1st

      Aww, congratulations! Sorry you had to deal with that on your wedding, but i’m very glad everything worked out in the end!
      Unfortunately the complete opposite happened in my family, two of the groomsmen got into a fistfight before my uncle’s first wedding and one of them showed up to the reception with a black eye. That was just one of the things that went wrong that day, and sure enough, it was probably an omen because that marriage was very toxic.
      Luckily, my uncle got married again to a absolutely INCREDIBLE woman that I am now close with and see as an aunt, and they have now been married for 5 years and have a child together. And their wedding was absolutely beautiful, with nothing going wrong that I could see.

    In my 20s I had what I thought was a close group of work friends and friends from hs. I had a birthday at a bar and no one showed up. My twin that year had a birthday party I wasn't allowed to go to because she wanted my ex and his wife to go. I've never had a birthday party since and I am petrified of it happening if I ever end up getting married. I empathize with the story where no one showed up. That is such a just awful feeling in general but to have planned a wedding and have that happen..... I cried hearing that.

    The last story reminded me of this. While not a wedding but for a death in the family. One of my aunts posted to Facebook asking for prayers because her husband's mother (my grandmother) just passed away. Turns out she posted it so fast that they hadn't been able to notify everyone yet and my grandmother's sister found out of her passing via Facebook. Isn't social media just fabulous.

    I'm single, so no personal wedding stories, but my siblings weddings went pretty well. The closest we came to disaster was when my sister's groom nearly passed out due to emotions. He stayed upright (barely), but afterward I learned that I was not the only person who had a plan in case he went down. The entire group of six of us (1 MOH, 2 bridesmaids, 1 best man, and 2 groomsmen) were prepared to dash in if need be. Great minds think alike. At my brother's wedding the bouquet toss was kind of funny. When the bride threw the bouquet, all but one person (not me) dove as far away as possible. The one gal who stood her ground really wanted to get married, everyone else had reasons for not wanting to catch it (in my case, my broody aunt and my mother would likely have tried to arrange a marriage for me). The weddings were 16 and 14 years ago now and both couples are still happily married and I am still contentedly single.

      I went to a wedding, with my grandparents, of people I didn't know. When it was time for the bouquet toss, the people at the table we were sitting at pressured me to participate. Of course, I caught the bouquet. I was standing at the back and not making an effort to catch it. One of the bridesmaids was really upset. She said she was supposed to catch it. I tried to give it to her but she said it didn't count. A little girl sitting at a table near by said she wanted it, I gave it to her.

      When I was 9, I was at my aunt wedding. Everyone besides me knew that one of the groomsmen promised that he'll marry his girlfriend if she will catch the bouquet. Everything that I knew - my dad jokingly said to me that my older sister (she was 17) shouldn't catch it.
      EVERYONE stepped back. Aunt threw the bouquet straight to that girl's hands. And I caught it right before she touched it.
      My aunt was furious. That girl was devastated. Her boyfriend was happy as ****. That couple was supposed to drive us home so it was a fun ride. They broke up 4 months after that wedding - I think I saved them both, because he was a moron.
      Fun fact: it was 13 years ago and still not even one single girl from the wedding got married. Guess they still waiting for me😅

    My husband was a 5th generation police officer (his dad, cousin, grandfather, and uncle were cops) and other family members were in the police academy at the time too. My MOH’s underage sister somehow got alcohol and was drunk in a room full of cops. I was thankful no one made a scene about it. My uncle also made a code word at the bar so his family could use it to put their drinks on his tab. The code word got out and he ended up paying for the drinks for half the reception. 😂 we’ve been together for 14 years now

    Not my wedding but my brother’s wedding. It was a stressful day, he forgot to tell us that close family will be taking pictures at 9:00 am, so we got there late. After that, we got to the church, everything was going smooth until my grandma had a heart attack mid vow telling and my dad, who’s a doctor, was trying to save his mom and crying. I was some sort of groomsmen and I wasn’t able to see the disaster, thank god, but since I am autistic, I was having a meltdown because of the “plan changes”. After that, we head to the venue and I had to say hi to every guest because my dad was at the hospital with my grandma and my mom was helping my brother with something. Was not that bad at the end, I ate pizza.

    Mine was an absolute sh!tshow. It started the night before, when we had the wedding party (including my mom and step dad as well as my husbands) come out and stay at a big house on the property where we were having the wedding. My mom, who I’ve never had a good relationship with, shows up and immediately starts causing problems. After unpacking she can’t find her car keys and starts accusing everyone of stealing them, most of all my husbands best man, that she ended up burning on the back of the neck with a lighter that she was “playfully” teasing him with. Fast forward to the next day where she wakes me up on my wedding day to tell me that she thinks she is going to leave my step dad. Among other things, a friend that I was going to pay to do my hair and makeup arrives so late that I have to do it myself. The person doing our flowers was also extremely late, takes forever to set up, and arrives with huge over the top arrangements when I just wanted something simple (for example I am petite and my bouquet was so huge that it took up my entire torso). On top of everything my husbands step dad (who’s family owns the property) announces that we won’t be having a reception at all claiming he never knew about one (even after planning it with him and telling him we hired a dj) and wants everyone to leave the property by 6pm. Thankfully the dj let us have the reception at his house but this caused everyone to drive an hour and a half back into town to get there. I also never got the first dance that I imagined or the dance with my dad because it was mostly just friends that drove to the “reception”. My husband and I are still happily married but our relationships with our families are definitely strained.

During my reception my soon to be SIL was beyond sloppy drunk this is on top of showing up wearing an outfit from Hot Topic (from the 90s) a half shirt with pleater black pants and chuck Taylor sneakers mind you this was a formal event, she then jumped in my arms and tried to French kiss me in front of not only my family but my in-laws, after falling off of me she went on to try and kiss 4 others men and women after that she was caught doing the deed with one of the guests on my side of the family in the bathroom by my husband's grandfather (mind you she did most of this in front of her soon to be husband, my husband's brother) let's just say they never got married.
    Edit: I'm still with my husband going on 22 years 8/26 and now his brother is happily married to a wonderful women with 3 children.

She thought I did something I didn't do and almost ruined the boys friendship. All because I changed my mind about letting her do my make up about a week and a half before the wedding due to other problems that occurred to make me realize she was a not so good person. The wedding night i was put into a full mental breakdown and my mom had to come calm me down, my husband was beyond livid. Spent my whole honeymoon on edge and worried about my husband and his buddies friendship due to the phsyco.
