‘I wasn’t at this one, but my friend told me during a reception he was at, the bride’s uncle parasailed over the reception towing a banner. A short time later the power went out. Sometime later, a couple police officers showed up, and explained that the uncle accidently hit some power lines and didn’t survive.’

‘Nothing crazy. But I was at a wedding where you were supposed to open these little envelopes and release a butterfly at the end of the ceremony. When we opened the envelopes all the butterflies were either dead or almost dead. Super awkward. If you watch Bob’s Burgers there’s a similar scene in an episode. The first time I saw it I immediately thought of that wedding lol.’

‘I was a kid, bit into a bitterballen fresh from the deep fryer, the thing being hot enough to burn skin made me throw it in a reflex, on the bride’s wedding dress. Now I had a burnt mouth and saw the stain on her dress and started crying. The bride, being the absolute champion that she is, comforted me, grabbed a dress fold, and folded it over the stain like nothing ever happened. She’s the kind of person I’m striving to be.’

‘Oh boy where do I start…
‘The grandmother of the groom died.
‘She died at the hotel in her sleep, right after the wedding. Nobody saw it coming either, she was on her feet the entire evening. Most solemn continental breakfast I’ve ever been to.
‘The vows were also quite awkward. To sum it up, the bride’s vows basically were: “I’ll always remember to not bother you on Mondays and Wednesdays, those are your designated gaming days.”
‘Also some of the most awkward speeches I’ve ever heard in my life. Sister of the bride obviously did not like her sister’s choice of husband, and said as much during her speech.’

‘Certainly not the worst, but at my own wedding it stormed so violently as the guests walked from their cars into the church that no umbrella could keep them from getting absolutely soaked. I’m talking drenched.
‘A lightning strike took out the power, so the mics/audio system didn’t work. You couldn’t hear a thing that the pastor or anyone said.
‘Also the church had no AC and it was the middle of summer in 100% humidity. My sister, the maid of honor, fainted at the altar both from the heat and locking her knees (don’t lock your knees!!!). Luckily my uncle caught her and she made a quick recovery.
‘Alas, the show went on, the sun eventually came out for the reception (still insane humidity), everyone drank the venue out of booze and my husband and I are still happily married 15 years later ’

Friend’s wedding at a country club. They were in the middle of their vows during the ceremony. All of a sudden we heard a loud crash. One of the brides young nephews, I think was 5 at the time had taken one of the golf carts and crashed it into a tree. Kid was ok, shaken up but yea put a damper on the event.

‘The bride’s family didn’t turn up. Not one. They didn’t agree with her marrying a white man.
‘EDIT:- he was white and Welsh, she was Indian and I think Muslim though I could be wrong on her faith. After the wedding she got death threats from her dad and brothers for dishonouring the family so her and her hubby moved to New Zealand where they are now living their best lives.’
