Recently,this photoof terrible wedding guest behavior went mega-viral on Reddit, and it got me thinking – what other terrible wedding guest behavior have entitled people been guilty of? So I ran tor/weddingshamingto comb through the worst of the worst!
Here are 35 terrible wedding guests who, frankly, deserve our shaming.
1.“A friend was getting married last year, and finally, the big day arrived. Guests started arriving, and one guest — we’ll call her Sarah — has her plus one, her BF, but she also brought a second plus one, which she never informed anyone about…her own photographer she had fired to follow her and take pics for her Instagram. This girl isn’t famous or even Insta-famous (she has 2–3k followers), but all the photos on her Insta seem ‘professional.'”
" The bride was super gracious about allow the extra client stay because she did n’t require any dramatic play , but she was obviously a bit miffed about it . "

2.“During the reception, the groom’s auntie managed to get hold of the mic and gave this sobbing, lamenting speech about her son who’d died in infancy 30 years before. We got to hear about his illness and passing (in uncomfortable detail), and then she led the whole reception hall in a rousing rendition of the hymn they liked to sing to honour him. Like, several times over. Pretty sure we had to sing it in a round at one point, too. As soon as she was done, her tears disappeared like magic, and she sat back down with a big, smug smile on her face.”
obviously , she did it at every occasion she attended , weddings , funeral , anniversaries , and even some big corporate retirement shindigs . The bride and stableman had both expressly forbidden her from doing it at their hymeneals , and had instructed the MC not to allow her the mic , but at one dot , he ’d stepped away to refill his drink . She must have been watch , waiting for her hazard . This was year ago . Anyone I talk to now who was at that wedding does n’t remark the bridal veil , the just food for thought , the interior decoration , anything prissy about that affair … all anyone think of is ' that uncanny woman who made us sing to her dead baby . ' "

3.“This happened over 12 years ago. My boyfriend at the time (now husband) brought me to a wedding as a plus one. During the reception, the bride and all the single ladies gathered so the bride could toss the bouquet. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, a guy came up behind the bride, who was holding the bouquet up over her head, poised to launch it into a crowd of hopeful women, and grabbed the bouquet from the bride. Then he got on one knee in front of a bridesmaid, offered her the bouquet, and proposed.”
" No one cognise how to respond . There was a good 5 - 10 seconds of absolute secrecy as everyone tried to comprehend the sheer audaciousness . The maid of honor enunciate yes and everyone run back to their table .
To this day , I still find myself wonder if the bride eff and approved of this proposal . From what I remember , the bride seemed surprised , but not upset . Either way , we leave shortly after . "

4.“I had a private courthouse wedding and then a month later a reception party at a beautiful banquet hall. The attire requested was cocktail, as we would be getting fully dressed up again in his custom suit and my gown. Guests showed up at the venue, and we had a great time taking pictures, eating, drinking, etc. However, I hadn’t had the chance to take a picture with my whole family yet. About an hour into the reception, all nine of my nieces and nephews (aged 12-20) disappear. Weird, but whatever, I’ll get the family photo when they reappear. Well, when they finally reappeared two hours later, along with one of their fathers, they had all changed from their formal clothes into basketball shorts, jeans, and t-shirts, including the father. Apparently, they were complaining they were bored, so he decided to take them back to the hotel to change so they could go MINI GOLFING in the middle of the reception. No words.”

5.“I attended the wedding of friends several years ago. A woman in our social circle, who was kind of infamous for being offended at the drop of a hat, was upset that the bride, with whom she was not particularly close, hadn’t asked her to be in the wedding party. So she asked one of the bridesmaids what they were wearing, drove to David’s Bridal, and showed up at the wedding wearing the same gown as the bridesmaids. Talk about an awkward reception.”

6.“I had my wedding and handfasting ceremony this weekend. My fiancé and I purposely kept it very small with close family and friends only. I have had a complicated relationship with my dad since my parents divorced when I was 12, and I moved with my mom. Because of this, I invited him as a guest, but very specifically did not want him to walk me down the aisle. When the ceremony was about to start, he asked where he should go, and I told him to go and sit with the guests. He disappeared, and I went to my location for the final preparations to make my grand entrance. My music started, I descended the staircase of the venue, and there was my dad waiting for me in front of everyone. He took my hand, said, ‘Let’s go!’ and led me down the aisle. I was too stunned to know how to respond in this situation. All eyes were on me, I was in the middle of the aisle, and I’m scared of conflict, especially with my dad.”
" I am authentically SO raging because he took my choice away from me , and he did n’t allow me to bask a second that I had envisioned for years . I did n’t even get to hear the music or be in the moment because he was asking the entire time down the aisle where he was speculate to pose . "

7.“A guy that we (the bride and groom) had never met before proposed to his girlfriend at our wedding. We were cutting the cake, so everyone had been ushered in, and the photographers were going wild, telling us to pose, how to cut it, etc. Everyone was watching. And this guy jumped into the space between the wedding party and everyone else and proposed to his girlfriend. She was a former colleague of my husband, and I had only met her the day before. She is not a super close friend of us as a couple or my husband individually. And we had never met that guy before. He met us at our wedding reception.”
" Was this his programme the whole prison term ? What if he had hate the venue or something ? What if they had n’t had a good prison term ? Why did n’t he just plan something on his own , at least buy her a dinner party instead of eating and drink on us ? The whole thing was so cringeworthy . "

8.“About fifteen years ago, I was a guest at a big New York-New Jersey wedding. The church wedding service went off without a hitch, and the bride, groom, and their families were doing some quick group photos outside. That was where the first sign of trouble started. The bride’s mother started throwing a fit that the bride’s family should have priority for photos. She actually physically stopped the photographer from taking a group shot of about fifteen people to make them wait for her family to be ready. The bride looked mortified, and the bride’s father and groom’s parents had to step in and keep mom from causing a scene.”
" Somebody permit drop off that the Saint Bride and groom had compensate for the whole marriage ceremony themselves , and the Saint Bride ’s momma was furious that she had been cut out of planning after she had repeatedly tried to alter things behind the Brigid ’s back .
With that smoothed over and photos done , the reception beget underway . They were mystify quick to serve solid food , and of a sudden , there was shouting from the direction of the kitchen and the entrance hall . Alotof shouting .
The Saint Bridget ’s mother hadreplaced the cake . In its place , she left a sheet cake and was attempting to move the original patty , a beautiful two - understructure - tall issue , out of the edifice on a serving cart . Like some terribly heist movie , her whole programme was to steal a several - hundred - dollar bon vivant masterpiece and replace it with a cheap Walmart - sounding patty that had presumably been in the trunk of her railway car all afternoon and hope nobody noticed . All because she was harebrained that she did n’t get her room .
serve it to say , after much blackguard in the hallway , the substantial cake was rescued , the impostor bar toss out of , and the bride ’s mother spend the repose of the reception sit down in her motorcar , pout . "

9.“I recently attended a wedding with my boyfriend. They had a nice ceremony and cocktail hour, and we all sat down to eat. Here’s where it gets good. The first two speeches from the best man and the bride’s father were fine. Nothing wild; just your standard speech at a wedding. Then came the maid of honor (the bride’s older sister). She walked up to the front and grabbed the mic. First thing she said was, I didn’t write anything down; I figured I’d wing it.’ She then said, ‘Honestly, we’ve heard enough about my sister for one day. I’m a little sick of it,’ then proceeded to thank both parties and a few others. She didn’t say a word about her sister (the bride) or the groom. She then ended the speech by saying, ‘Can’t wait to meet the little one.'”
" The whole way survive silent . Apparently , the bride was six weeks along and only her sister bang . Not even her parents . The bride see mortified . The rumors we hear after were that the maiden of accolade could n’t stand not being the centre of aid during event , so she just had to be the one to assure everyone that her babe was pregnant . It was such an uneasy afterparty . "

10.“I met this girl at the gym in 2018. We were both in long-term relationships (hers nine years, mine eight), and we bonded over that. I got engaged in 2019 and got married this April. By December ‘22, she and her fiancé had broken up after almost 14 years together, and her personality changed from tree-hugging girl to femme fatale (she’s indeed beautiful), dating married men and bragging about it. After my ceremony ended, she asked one of mybest friendsif she knew who was single at the party. Before my husband and I finished our pictures, she was already at the back of the venue with Guy #1.”
" She need a little more of a aroused make - out school term , and he stopped her and said they should enjoy the political party and could go somewhere else after it . She got piddle and head to get a potable .
As the dark start on and she get drunker , she screamed at multitude to reckon at her while she did splits on the dancefloor and in the garden , made out with Guy # 2 , get angry that my cousin caught the bouquet , and found Guy # 3 . They ' hid ' in the dour corridor outside the venue that led to the parking tidy sum , and she took off her dress , result her just in a top and very unforesightful shorts as they addict up .
The valets I hired got stuck on the other side of the parking lot because the only direction to get back to the locus was through that corridor . They bid my wedding planner , who went there and begged her to put her attire back on and descend back to the party . The pair ignored her , and the contriver went after my other cousin to see if she could help . My mama take heed them and got pissed asking the same best Quaker from earlier to get the pair out of there or she would lose it and throw both of them out .
I only ascertain out the next morning ; she never spoke to me again . "

11.“I got married last weekend. My brother invited his new girlfriend. She’s got her own online business where she sells makeup and perfumes or something. She’s a ‘work from my phone’ girl. Anyway, our venue had a strict no-phone policy during the ceremony, and I asked for nothing to be posted on social media about the wedding due to family drama. Today I received an email from her with an ‘invoice’ for £500.”
" plainly , she ’d missed a message from a fille who want to connect her squad , and so the miss had signed up under someone else due to my no - headphone , no - socials nuptials , stimulate her to miss out on the commissioning .
Anyway , I said I was n’t pay it , and that I ’m hurt she would even ask . She then said that if I joined her squad , she would waive the bill . Fine . I ’ll join if it shuts you up . Except apparently I now have to compensate £ 60 for some starter pack with hundreds of perfume samples , even though I ’m hypersensitised to perfume . Also , she expects me to mail about it all over societal medium . Turns out she would also essentially be my ' boss . ' "

12.“In the short gap of time between my ceremony and reception, when my ex-husband and I were taking some more pictures, etc, my ex-step FIL gave my ex-MIL a huge new diamond ring. Sitting at their table with all their friends and family, he gave a little speech and presented her with this big ring. She was crying; the whole deal. Everyone made a whole scene and my whole side was like…what the actual fuck. My ex’s father and his whole side also thought it was awkward. This was at her first child’s wedding — her oldest son. My photographer’s assistant was so thrown off and took a bunch of pics of it, so I had to actually see it, not just hear about it. I had a fairly good relationship with my MIL and her husband, but I never really got over that.”

13.“I have now been married for almost thirty years. But everyone who attended my wedding only remembers one event that occurred. And it has nothing to do with my actual nuptials. So my brother had a long-time female best friend. She actually chose my wedding reception to declare her love for my brother. He was already engaged at that point to his college girlfriend. This led to a confrontation in the middle of the reception.
" Instead of protect and maintain myself and my husband , my fellowship instead come up around my blood brother . The worst matter was that nobody , including my immediate family , keep out this down . And nobody in reality recognized that this drama was n’t comely to me or my married man . Even now , year later , any conversation about my marriage with congeneric is focused on the fight . The unsound is that whenever my husband or I bring up how unjust this situation was to us , we are meet with a immense backlash about how hard this was on my brother .
P.S. My pal was always the midway golden child who could do no wrong . "

14.“My MIL isn’t quite horrible. She toes the line, but for the most part, she isn’t interested in us, and we take that as a blessing. When we got engaged, she suddenly became interested, because this woman loves a party. She went wedding dress shopping with me, and I found this gorgeous sheath dress, but ultimately, I didn’t feel comfortable in it. It is the type of dress that will cling to your tummy if you have one, but I was heartbroken, and I loved it. MIL really liked it too, though I didn’t know how much until I saw her wearing it on my wedding day.”
" In her defense , she got rose gold , not livid , but it was still a wtf moment for me . We got married at her beach house , and I call up MIL thought it was all some celebration of her / vow rehabilitation . She invite so many of her protagonist that there was no room in the mansion for my guests ( whom she had offered to house ) . She drank at the rehearsal dinner party like it was some case of frat party , shine in the pocket billiards , and then made a very moving , sweet speech … about how great FIL is . I scarcely got any rest the night before the wedding party , because she had a drunken sleepover with her BFFs in the next way . The first light of the wedding , she disappeared to go sunbathe , leaving me alone to engineer the wedding ceremony she so urgently want . MIL spend my wedding crawl over her husband , all lovey dovey like she was the Saint Bride and posing under the blossom arc in my / her garb , which honestly looked killer on her . I concord onto that anger for a tenacious time . "
15.“I went to a friend’s wedding last weekend, and wow. The wedding itself was lovely. The couple was gracious and polite to everyone, the food was good and plentiful, the venue was beautiful, and everything was running smoothly. Then the bride’s sister got up to make her speech. A bit of backstory: the bride and her sister are fraternal twins. Growing up, her sister was always more popular and considered to be prettier. In eighth grade, the groomhad a crushon the sister and wrote her a letter declaring his feelings. She wasn’t interested and embarrassed him by reading the letter out loud during lunch. Everyone laughed at him; he cried, and it must have been awful. The bride felt bad for him, since she was used to being bullied by her sister, too. She walked home with him that day to console him, and they eventually became best friends. They started dating in high school, lived together all through college, and got married after nearly fifteen years together.”
" Most people know at least part of this story , so I guess it was n’t a immense lot that the sister recount it in her speech . It was a number inappropriate , but it was more than a decennium ago , and I guess it ’s kind of a funny meet - precious ? She did leave behind out the bit about what she did , it was just ' Groom had a little crush on me in school day , but … ' So whatever . But then , she took out the varsity letter ! ! ! The factual letter he ’d written her when he was thirteen , confessing his belief , since apparently she ’s always save ' love letters ' from hombre , even if she never date them . She go along to learn it in front of all their guests , word for word , include the part where he wrote she was the most beautiful girl in the stratum ( the bride was also in that grade ) . Then she stop by saying that it was a near affair , that her standards had n’t been lower back then , or this marriage could never have happened . "
16.“My husband and I chose to have a simple, cheap wedding due to both going through University. Most of the guests loved the relaxed daytime atmosphere of being at a park and being surrounded by friends and family. But we had issues with one guest: a former close friend. First, he showed up late, and we held the wedding until he arrived so he wouldn’t miss out. He later complained of the cheapness of the wedding, stating, ‘it doesn’t cost enough to be a real wedding.’ He made a few other remarks we tried to ignore…until I was informed he was trying to invite my friends to akaraokenight at a random pub that night, and didn’t want to invite my husband or me. "
" We asked him about it , and he say he did n’t think we would take care him hanging with our friends and that we should n’t join them because we should be with family instead . He move to get angry that I was being over - excited due to saying that I was upset , as we had plans that evening with everyone already , and that I personally find it rude to try and convert node to string up out with him alternatively during our wedding without inviting or consult us first .

17.“I attended a beautiful wedding this weekend in Boston. The grooms both come from money, so the venue was gorgeous and the decorations tasteful (white orchids, guests and wedding party wore black). Everything was just stunning, and there were no hiccups (that I was aware of) until around 10 p.m. They had an amazing live band that kept everyone dancing throughout the night, but I guess someone had too much fun on the dance floor. I see a staff worker with a broom and a tablecloth run out onto the dance floor, throw it over something, and quickly scoop it up. He left quickly. And then the smell. Someone, I swear to god, pooped on the dance floor. (Or as my sister said, sharted).”
" The whole saltation floor smelled like shit . The locale did n’t have any windowpane or doors to the outside , so it just linger . 🤢 🧻 😳
Thankfully , the reception ended at 11 , but by then , everyone was mindful of what had happen , although no one roll in the hay the culprit . ( And if you ’re wondering , it was a youngster - free wedding . ) We made our means off the saltation story say goodnight and goodbye , still pretend like we could not smell the literal sh*t in the air .
The grooms have since fly to Rome for their honeymoon , and I have n’t heard any update on whether the perpetrator was strike . The general supposal was that it was a adult female who was sr. / incontinent . But how do you allow it get to the point where crap falls out ? Wear some Depends or do n’t go on the dancefloor . gravely .
And this wedding probably cost close to $ 1 m. "

18.“I went to a wedding for a friend this past winter. Let’s call her WB for ‘winter bride.’ WB has decorated her venue (a small church) with dried florals incorporated within Christmas trees. It actually looked very pretty. Imagine my surprise and a few other guests’ surprise when we found out where they came from. In the fall, WB had been a guest at her childhood friend’s wedding. We’ll call that friend FB for ‘fall bride.’ FB has asked that at the end of the night, her flowers be donated to a local nursing home. FB found out at WB’s wedding that WB had collected a car full of FB’s flowers, taken them home, and dried them for her own wedding. WITHOUT ASKING.”

19.“We got married inLas Vegasand planned on heading to the strip or Fremont Street after the reception. On the shuttle bus, we realized a friend of ours got way too hammered. He actually fell off of the bus and had to have a group of our guests, including the groom, carry him to the hotel lobby. He shit his pants while passed out on the hotel lobby couch, so we had our EMT friend checking to make sure he was breathing, etc. The entire group was hanging out in the lobby, and a couple of the guests went to shower him off in their room. The rest of us went up to our hotel room (the bride and groom’s room) and were going to take a shot to get the night restarted, and suddenly, the drunk guy and his girlfriend came into our hotel. The drunk guy passed out in the bride and groom’s bed. 🤢”
" His lady friend sound out an Uber would n’t take him , so they had no choice . I , the bride , was disgusted and tried to get him out , but he had already desecrated the sheets . I did n’t want to ruin everyone ’s mood , so I start us all together and headed out to the flight strip . After the whole stinking trial by ordeal , everyone was reasonably tired , so we headed back to our rooms and called it a dark . Our elbow room smelled god awful , and in the end , an Uber took him , and he and his girlfriend go forth for their blank elbow room at a dissimilar hotel . We had to request new plane and send out the room , and I still felt gross let to lie in our bed . The guestroom where he showered was covered in shit too , so there was no other option . All in all , the inebriated guy think it ’s funny and has n’t apologized . My now - husband is still piss day by and by . 😣 We ’re hope the honeymoon give us good memories . "

20.“My fiancé and I are having a very casual wedding at his family’s hunting property in Northern Michigan. We are having a tiny ceremony (12 people, immediate family only) and a 100-person reception. Both are at the hunting property. We didn’t want to have a wedding in the first place, but my fiancé is an only child, and his family really pushed for it, so here we are. He has a great aunt I’ve never met in the five years we’ve been together. We invited her to the reception only, just like the vast majority of the family. When she sent back her RSVP, she wrote on the card, ‘No ceremony, no attendance, we are family!!'” and declined the invite.”
" My fiancé and I were shook ! The intact class lead up to the wedding party , we ’ve been telling the entire family unit the ceremony will be small , short , and sweet , so it should n’t have been a surprisal to her at all .
A few hebdomad subsequently , we have dinner with my fiancé ’s parents . We tell them about the rude note from the great auntie and they recount us she had even more pathetic shit to say ! patently , this womanhood , whom I ’ve never play and whom my fiancé has n’t see to it in eight year , wanted to stay in the small cabin on the hunting property . The same cabin that my fiancé and I will be stay on in after the wedding ! ! She knew we would be staying in the cabin and was offended that we did n’t bid her to stay with us and that it was ' ill-mannered to require significant guests to have to outride in a hotel when the venue has lodge .

21.“I received my cousin’s RSVP with four other people’s names in the name field for their plus one. She wanted to invite her mom, dad, daughter, and daughter’s fiancée. I only invited this one cousin per my dad’s request since I hadn’t talked to her in over five years, and he already had a small list of his family members he wanted to invite. My dad called her and told her that her mom and dad were okay to come, but her daughter and her daughter’s fiancé could not since we were not having a huge wedding. I also texted her to let her know the same thing.”
" She say no worries , and that was that , but lie with these multitude , I feel like they were going to show up anyway . I had n’t seen her daughter in years and removed her from my societal media year ago because of some vile things she was say to other family members ; she ’s just not a someone I want to be around . The wedding day issue forth around , and sure enough , her girl and girl ’s fiancé came anyway — and the one cousin-german I really send the invite to did n’t show up ! She took it upon herself to take in four other people to our wedding like it was some sort of backyard barbeque and then did n’t even number or say anything to me about it . "

22.“A couple of years ago, one of my best friends since middle school got married. For her wedding party, she chose her sister as maid of honor, and then the groom’s sister and I as bridesmaids. Planning the bachelorette party fell to me and the groom’s sister because the maid of honor was still in high school. I went over to the sister’s house one day and we planned everything out. It was a normal afternoon right up until I went to leave. She asked if I could stay a few more minutes so she could show me the wedding gift she got them. I said ok, and she disappeared from the room for a few minutes. When she came back, she had a karaoke machine with her. I assumed that was the gift because I knew the couple both liked to karaoke. But then she hit play and started singing at me. In her living room. With a microphone.”
" When she was done , she asked me what I conceive . I cautiously pronounce I was a little unsure what the talent was on the nose . She said , ' I ’m hold out to sing to them at the wedding during the speeches ! ' I had to struggle so hard to hold up back my laughter and pass over the disarray off my face because , for one , she was n’t a adept vocalist , and she was never asked to give a speech . I also knew my ally would only hate it . So I told her , while I thought it was a gracious gesture , she should credibly leave the speeches for those ask to keep the receipt timeline on track . She seemed disappointed , but she agree , and I thought that was the end of that horrible idea .
Cut to the receipt . The speech were all done , and the DJ was protrude to denote dinner , when the stableman ’s sister stood up and said , ' Wait , I have something to say ! ' She then achieve under the tabular array and pull out her karaoke political machine ! Nobody but me interpret what was about to find .
She promote play and went on to peach a six - minute song ! The whole time , she keep staring at the Brigid and ostler aggressively in the eyes , and she sounded even worse than she did at her house . It was the cringiest affair I ’ve ever witnessed at a wedding party or anywhere else , for that thing . When she was finally finished , the whole way was silent . After a few very uncomfortable seconds , the DJ finally aver , ' Let ’s give it up for the stableboy ’s babe ! ' multitude clapped really awkwardly , but you could tell no one liked it or knew what to say .
The stableboy ’s sister bursts into rip and runs out of the way . Her mom got up and really followed her . We did n’t really see her for the rest of the night . I later detect out that she was ' disquieted with every single person ' in that room because nobody appreciated her gift , and in her belief , it was the best gift the couple would ever have .
My friend told me she would have been mad , but the whole nuisance value of it all just make her laugh every time she conceive about it . And her sister in law ( who she has never liked ) was finally put in her lieu . "

23.“October last year, I was the photographer at a wedding. Now, this couple was from a not-so-nice area north of Adelaide, and they decided to have their wedding at a nice winery south of Adelaide. Red flags were starting to come up even before the wedding. The groom punched the FOB at the engagement party, and there were other fights, too! Now the wedding went okay. Until later on in the evening, when a staff member from the venue came in like she had seen a ghost. Nearly in tears, she explained that she had seen the bride’s brother having a wank behind a dumpster.”
" He did n’t stop , though ; he stared right at her and proceeded to ' fetch up himself off ' as she explained . The guy was weird and had made advances at female staff in front of his married person ! Fast forwards to a yr later . I ’m shooting at the same venue . I take the air in , and I see the poor staff appendage . She looks at me with an ' I ’ve seen you before look , and then it attain her , her eyes extend — all those store come flooding back of the humankind behind the dumpster ! Whenever I go to that locale , they always mention ' the weirdest wedding party they ever had . ' I seem to be the reminding component . It ’s not how I want to be remembered there , honestly . "

24.“Less than a week before the wedding, we had a guest text my fiancé asking to show up to the venue early to take pictures for us and to continue to take pictures during the ceremony and reception. We informed her that we have already booked a photographer and videographer and that it would not be necessary. My now-wife first texted her back saying, ‘No, thank you, we hired professionals,’ and after she persisted, I had to step in and give her a firm ‘No, do not do this.’ This guest was a courtesy invite as she did take our engagement photos and is an old family friend, but she was more of an acquaintance to the family at this point. We honestly never even expected her to accept the invitation.”
" During the ceremony , when my wife was walking down the aisle . She apparently ( I did n’t see her ) was stand behind me , taking pictures of us . Not just with her mobile phone . She had a huge , high - end camera strapped around her cervix . After the ceremony , the lensman went up to the amah of laurels and apparently , she said who the fuck is that ? Directly after the ceremony , my now - wife tell me what fall out and wanted to kick her out of the hymeneals . She was babble out out of this so as not to make a view by the MOH . The maidservant of pureness and another wedding company member confronted her and distinguish her that she either ask to leave or put her camera in the car . I later heard through the grapevine that she said they did n’t have to be so mean during this interaction .
We inform the photographer ( who was rattling ) of the situation , and she was understanding and felt regretful . She said she was able to keep her out of a legal age of her picture , but unfortunately , the videographer was not able to forefend her . Later in the wedding , after she put her camera in the railroad car , we did something address a ' board dah ' where we went around to each mesa to take a quick photo with them before a song was finished . Of course , at her tabular array , she consider out her cellphone and then claim a selfie . So , everyone is look at the photographer , and she is on the sharpness of the picture with her cellphone out .
In addition , we did not receive any endowment from her . I ’ve been told through the grapevine that she does n’t think she did anything faulty and does n’t understand what the big mass is . I have no melodic theme what possessed this woman to take these actions . "

25.“I’m not the bride, but a guest. Apparently, a couple’s babysitter fell ill the morning of the wedding, as in, they had to go to the hospital. Scary stuff, things happen. In polite society, perhaps they’d text the wedded couple and send last-minute regrets. Nope! These folks were C L U E L E S S and showed up with their (uninvited) three-month old infant… who then cried during the ENTIRE ceremony and said clueless parents just…stood there, in the back of the space, letting that baby wail the whole fucking time: processionals, blessings, vows, glass breaking and all.”
" Oh , and no auricle protection for the baby either , who stay for the full reception as the DJ blare dope strain throughout the Nox . If the baby was crying during the dance part of the eventide , you could n’t tell because the music was so tacky — y’know , at appropriate levels for adult with fully developed hearing . I could n’t side - eye that misfortunate baby ’s parent hard enough without pulling a sinew . "

26.“My sister had a beautiful ceremony. Everything went off perfectly, and then the bar opened for guests whilst pictures were being taken of the bridal party and anyone else they wanted photographed. Well, it turns out the best man made good use of the bar during this time (perhaps 90 minutes), because by the time we were ready to sit down to dinner, he was three sheets to the wind. I don’t know if he was trying to drown his nerves because he hadn’t written his speech or something, because when he stood up, he pulled a receipt out of his pocket and pretended it was his speech.”
" Slurring his discussion , he started telling the most inappropriate taradiddle for a wedding , and you could see on the bride and groom ’s faces just how mortified they were . In the remnant , the stableman had to force him to sit down while my baby judge to veil her tears . Well , you ’d think this would be enough , but oh no . The discotheque begin and he decided to start dancing , but he keep knocking the kids over , so the groom had a password with him and he disappeared for 30 minutes or so . We knew he was still in the vicinity because his heavily significant mate and mother were still here , but when he reappeared , he had his ex-wife - girlfriend in towage ( she was also a Edgar Guest ) . They start out bray / trip the light fantastic toe on the terpsichore floor . His partner was in rent , and his mother was boast a gasket . He take his ex-husband - girlfriend to the approachable pot to kick downstairs uglies . His pregnant partner and female parent were done , and they take the car and left ; he pass on with his x in a taxi 10 minutes later . It was n’t even 9 p.m. yet . This guy bumble his life up in less than six hours . His best friend went no contact , his cooperator left him , he was thrust out of the house , and his mother desire nothing to do with him . "

27.“I’ve been married for a few months now, but every time I think about my dad’s speech, I get so angry and upset. I have already asked the videographer not to include it in my video. My dad and I were close when I was growing up. I was definitely a daddy’s girl. We aren’t close now. He’s in his sixties and can be sexist; I’m a bit of a feminist, and he knows this. Now onto his speech — this man didn’t bother to mention me or my husband, apart from saying, ‘She’s all grown up now, and I’m glad.’ His next statement was ‘If you don’t think jokes are funny you shouldn’t be here’ I instantly thought ‘Guess I shouldn’t be here’ when he started to read off the old ball and chain jokes he got off Google and made jokes about not listening to his wife and asking her, ‘What did you say? I wasn’t listening.’ Not a single guest laughed.”
" He then toast to my mother - in - law , who entirely ignored him because he ’d made her uncomfortable in the first place that daytime .
after in the nighttime , I saw him flirting with my husband ’s boss ' girl , so I can only imagine how he treat other women ( fortuitously , the genus Bos was too inebriated to notice ) . He dropped me and my husband off at home as he does n’t salute , and even when I was walking to the door , he said , ' I make love me , ' not I sleep with you .
I had problems with other family members , but he was the worst , and it ’s a day I ca n’t get back . "

28.“My fiancé has a friend he wanted to invite to the wedding, but I did not. She’s a hot mess express, but we had some extra room, and I didn’t want to be a bridezilla, so whatever. She was invited. Let’s call her W. Cut to the wedding day. We were getting ready, and guests started to arrive. My fiancé went to greet people before the ceremony, and I stayed hidden for my big reveal down the aisle. He came back up to our room where I was getting ready and said W is wasted. Then my wedding planner came up and asked who she was, saying they could not serve W. The ceremony hadn’t even started!”
" The ceremonial occasion blend off without a hitch . We greeted all our node as hubby and wife , and there was W. She was more than inebriated . Like on drugs ( I think Molly or something along those credit line ) . She was beyond this earthly realm . When I went to say hello to her , she ’d already better some glassware . Later in the even , she was grinding on my married man ( who quickly removed himself . I did n’t even know until after ) , and then as the heroic finale , she motorboated my breasts ! ! She put her facial expression into my chest and blew . I was wearing a V - cervix dress , so it was peel - to - cutis contact . Someone pulled her off and drove her home safely . W says it was the good Nox of her sprightliness . "

29.“I had an intimate wedding with only 50 guests: only family and very close friends. My uncle was going to attend the wedding with his girlfriend, but he had a fight with her that week, so he took his male best friend as his plus one. The best friend thinks he is a singer, but he only screams and makes an unbearable noise. Also, he ‘sings’ at every family gathering he attends. He carries CDs with the songs he knows everywhere he goes. When I saw him at my wedding, I was afraid he might want to perform, but I thought the DJ would say something to us if he asked him to play his CDs. At some point, my husband and I had a photo session with our parents and his siblings. When we got back to the party, this guy was ‘singing’ and the DJ was playing his CDs. Back then, I didn’t know how to set boundaries, so I didn’t say anything. Everyone was very confused. He ‘sang’ for about an hour and a half.”
" The political party resumed , but that was a very cringey present moment . Fortunately , I have n’t seen that guy ever again . "

30.“My (I’m the groom) mother is a tricky one. When she asked what colors she should wear to my upcoming wedding, I just said to avoid white and light blue (the bridesmaids’ color). She went and bought a white dress with some line-work light blue floral print on it. I haven’t actually seen it; I just heard the description. So I asked her if she could send me a pic of it. After a day of leaving me on read, she replied with ‘No, that’s not appropriate for you to ask me.’ She then stopped responding to my texts.”
" I then message my pa , and he would n’t station me a picture of it , but he place me in the direction of a photograph of a jacket crown with a similar color makeup . I react , saying it was far too snowy for anyone , let alone the mother of the groom , to wear to a wedding party . I then sent a clustering of article that discuss clean print dresses at weddings and what is and is n’t appropriate .
He fit in , say that he now infer it ’s out or keeping , but my mum is stress at work , so I might have to accept that she will wear it regardless .
I ’m absolutely smoke that they ’re unwilling to put me and my fiancées notion above hers for this one sidereal day in my life . "

31.“I married the man of my dreams. We had a dream wedding. We decided to invite his long-lost sister. After the ceremony, she had some sort of breakdown, running around screaming, ‘This should be my wedding!!’ First off, she was single. She somehow thought from the fact that we had a fancy wedding, that it would have been hers if she hadn’t been adopted. It’s rather a sad story, but holy hell, she was screaming like it was Jerry Springer, and it was hard for us to try to explain it to everyone. She hasn’t spoken to us since, as if she still believes it should have been her wedding. Bonus…my mom brought her new boyfriend and took pics in their underwear in the bathrooms. We had disposable cameras that these were found on. Double bonus…a cousin stole $100 bill from a relative’s purse and put it in a wedding card to us.”

32.“I just got married! At our wedding, my MIL complained to her son, the groom, and put complaints in the family group chat. The complaints ranged from her being too hot (outdoor ceremony), her feet hurting, and complaints about the planner. At the end of the night, she left without saying goodbye because she felt unappreciated for decorating the vehicle. She decided to take ALL the decorations off the car that she and her family from both sides spent 30 minutes doing in the rain. I never got to see the car decorated, and she specifically did it for me in my favorite color. We did not ask for the car to be decorated, but she offered, and I was really excited about it. After doing that, she left the wedding crying and took two family members with her that was supposed to stay and help us pack up the decor.”
" According to my married man , he never said anything about the decorations and did not have enough time to thank her for them before she ripped them off the elevator car . "

33.“This is about a wonderful wedding I went to yesterday. The bride and groom are the absolute sweetest couple you could ever meet. When we first arrived, we all waited on a terrace before the ceremony began, and that’s when I saw it: this lady (who I found out later was the groom’s aunt-in-law) was wearing a full-length, completely white sundress. All her accessories were white, including the shoes.”
" Fast forward to the receipt , and speeches are being reach . In the middle of the female parent of the bride ’s words , this lady could not barricade talking to the people next to her and register video on her phone to them ! Granted , that intact table would not shut up , but after some shushing from other guests , most of them get the idea . Not aunt - in - constabulary though . She stay fresh on talking as if nothing was occur . I see the hapless twosome throw numerous glances in her direction , and it was n’t until six unlike people ease up her the malevolent eye and shushed her that she finally shut up , and that was only because her married man nudged her . She managed to rest unruffled for five minute . She decided the ripe meter to depart talking again was when the non-Christian priest was bless the food . There ’s nothing like a approving without some loud talking with their mouth full , because she was already eating . This metre , a waiter actually came over and asked her to be quiet , and she had the audacity to get upset with him , but at least she finally shut out up . "

34.“When my sister was planning her wedding, one of our cousins told my sister not to invite part of our family: two of my dad’s cousins and their family. She recently had her wedding, and they got super drunk and were a big problem. Cool, we never see them anyway…Both of Dad’s cousins and their families crashed the wedding. Whatever, it was a big party. Just ignore them. Until the son of one of the cousins came up to my sister (the f*ing bride) and told her, ‘I can’t believe you forgot about us, you don’t even remember my name.’ My sister just replied, ‘Oh, no Stephano, I know who you are. I didn’t forget you, you just weren’t invited,’ and went on her merry way. Needless to say, they all got super drunk and annoying. They weren’t kicked out; my family isn’t about drama. (Unfortunately.)”

35.“This woman was a bad friend to start with and generally a rude guest. She didn’t like the meal option she chose when she saw someone else’s option, so she demanded a different meal. Of course, the caterers didn’t have any spares, as it was only a small wedding, so she sulked and pouted her way through the meal. The bride and groom had put a few bottles of wine on each table to go with the meal. Once the meal was done, she hid a few half-full bottles under her cardigan and took them back to her hotel room so she wouldn’t have to pay for drinks later on. That was rude behaviour in and of itself, but the icing on the cake was how she neglected her kid. The kid was ill, so they shouldn’t have been at that wedding anyway. After the meal, she put her kid to bed in their hotel room (same venue as the reception) and left them alone for the next six hours.”
" She had a child proctor she carried around , but ended up leaving it on the bar , on a table next to the dancefloor , anywhere but in her hand . Other guests kept handing it back to her , but she honestly did n’t deal . Awful fair sex . "

36.“This happened a while ago when my twins were just over a year old or so. My husband’s cousin got married in a medium-sized outdoor ceremony. The invitation said adults only, which we were completely okay with. We were going to leave our twins with our nanny. The bride told me that she wanted us to bring our twins. The family wanted to meet them, plus I was also doing her and the bridesmaids’ makeup. So we said okay, we’d love to bring them. The bride also said that she would make sure the catering company brought two high chairs for our kids, and they would be with our seats (assigned seating).”
" Anyway , the twenty-four hour period add up , and the bride told us that our kids were the only kids receive . The twins were neat throughout the integral ceremony , and we walked to our seating room for dinner party ( out of doors ) . We got to our seats , and there was only one high chair . We ask the catering party where the second gamey chair was , and they said they set them up next to each other , by our seats . We search around and saw another couple with a tike as well . This nipper had the other high chair that was meant for us . We asked if the caterer had another high chairman , but they only lend two , per the bride ’s postulation .
So this couple decided to bring in their child to an adults - only wedding ( no , they did n’t ask ; the Brigid confirmed our nipper were the only tiddler invite , in the main because we ’re family and because I was doing everyone ’s makeup ) . On top of that , they took a high president that was very obviously not mean for them . Because they took our high hot seat , I had to drag my huge treble stroller powerful up to the tabular array so that I would have somewhere to put my other baby . What made it even worse was the fact that our table was right in front of the bride and groom , as we were sitting with the bride ’s parent . That other couple that took our eminent hot seat was sitting at the far back end mesa and literally had their stroller justly next to them . This happened years ago , and I still detect it annoying . I felt tough because the bride kept apologize , which is the last matter I wanted . And that couple know that the high chair was meant for us because they watched the disturbance and fancy the fact that we had twin , which is why two high chairs were put together . "

37.And finally, we’ll end on a silly one: “A friend gifted his bride professional pictures of only himself. This friend is super self-absorbed about a lot of things, but this one was the most ridiculous to me. He hyped this gift up to people like it was something he had ‘made’ for her, to then reveal he had gotten professional pictures of himself done (they were very well done — the photographer is great!!), put them in a book, and gave them to her as her wedding gift day gift.”
