Your wedding day should be the most memorable day of your life but, as a thread on Reddit has proven, it’s not always for a positive reason.
In fact, droves of people shared stories of the worst thing that’s ever happened at a wedding they went to and we have to say, some of these make us want to crawl into a hole and hide.
If you’re getting married anytime soon, it might be a good idea to avoid reading these…
“I was best man at a wedding. I was standing next to the couple at the reception and the bride was tipsy (groom was sober). She told him aloud “I’m not really that in love with you…. but I think you’ll be a good husband.” The look on his face sucked all the joy from me. He tried to laugh it off and told her to hush but he was tearing up as they walked away.I was so sad for my friend. They are still married after 5 years but I never know what to think about them and I’ve never spoken to him about it.” (winkers)
“My neighbor asked me and my brother to make CDs for their sister’s wedding. This is back in the Napster days when we felt like badasses downloading music all day long. They gave us a long list and we busted our butts downloading the songs and burning the CDs in such a short deadline. We didn’t attend the wedding but we found out every CD turned out perfect except the one with the song where the bride and groom danced to.
“I believe it was some N*Sync song or something but it only played for ten seconds before changing to a recording of someone horribly playing an acoustic guitar and singing a song about their testicles. The bride went running off the dance floor crying, as the groom started a witch hunt to find out who made the CDs.
“Luckily everyone cooled down and agreed that is must have been an accident. Our neighbors never asked us for a favor again.” (rpj516)
“Two of my friends got married.
“The groom cheated on his bride quite often, including the night before the wedding. An anonymous text was sent out and spilled the beans to the bride. A fight ensued, but the wedding continued as planned. Turned out, the girl that did the bride’s makeup for the wedding was the girl who had been sleeping with the groom. I have never witnessed a more awkward situation in my life.” (ball_in_uh_cup)
“All was going well until my 5-year-old cousin, the ring bearer takes the cushion with the ring on it and spins it above his head, throwing it at the flower girl, my 4-year-old cousin who had been making faces at him – leaving the bride’s ring nowhere to be found. It took all of the bridesmaids and groomsmen a good while of crawling around on their knees to recover it.” (syowangza)
“The groom decided half way through the ceremony that he didn’t want to get married. He was then attacked by the father and brother of the bride. After a brawl (and a few bloody noses) he changed his mind and they got married.” (_Arimanius)
“The bride’s water breaking as she hobbled down the aisle.” (emmawestlund)
