Some weddings are over-the-top and really fancy and expensive.
They have everything from A-Z involved and added to make sure it's a magical night. Then some weddings, on the other hand, are low-key and sometimes a bit on the "trashy" side. Some guests feel like the wedding is a bit on the lower-class side, with plastic utensils or drunk pastors.
"Easily my cousins, it was held in their side yard. Styrofoam stuff for the aisle, she was about half an hour late coming out of the house because they had to deal with some critter, and we had to bring our own lawn chairs to sit in. The ceremony lasted all of 4 minutes and we went home," shared xeladragn.
Whatsamattahere said that they went to a wedding where the groom was a plumber and that the men wore on their lapels with mini toilets with flowers in them.
And, the centerpieces on the tables were plungers.
"The best man screwed the groom's mother between the meal and the dancing. The groom finds out and punches the best man, breaking his hand. The best man drives away and gets stopped by the police for drunk driving," said ooohcoffee.
wickedlizerd wrote that they were at a wedding in Germany and everything looked amazing during the ceremony.
But, during the reception, the bride asked the groom for a divorce. Talk about a night that went from 0-100 real quick.
"The groom showed up in a Hooters T-shirt. Turns out they had actually been divorced for 6 months at the time of the ceremony. The bride celebrated her honeymoon by checking herself into a mental hospital the day after the ceremony," said another Reddit user.
"I was invited to a wedding where the bride had met her fiancee online and NEVER IN REAL LIFE. The first time that they would ever see each other was meant to be at the alter at their wedding. Not surprisingly, the dude never showed up," wrote pm_ur_______________.
botulizard wrote that the bride and groom only wanted to be with each other for the money.
The groom was wealthy and the bride just needed some financial stability. Turns out, she was having an affair with a teacher from their high school.
"My grandmother in-law went to a giraffe themed wedding for a guy with 3 baby mamas and an uncountable amount of kids. The bride and bridesmaids were in giraffe print dresses. There was also a giraffe cake and various sized giraffe ornaments scattered about," said TheHoliestMacaroni.
forioh said that he and his friends went to a gentleman's club "rather earlier than usual," and within 15 minutes of being there, a few men walk in suits and some women in dresses and heels.
They had a "quick reception" at the strip club and that was that.
"I officiated a wedding where the bride wore a too-small white dress that she was spilling out of and did not cover her a**-- as in I could see her red thong and that she needed a trim.
The groom wore a black untucked t-shirt that still had the folded creases in it from when it was in the packaging and spent the whole ceremony staring at her cleavage," said Bn_scarpia.
phoenix-corn said that when the bride and groom walked down the aisle and the pastor was drunk.
So drunk, that he couldn't even remember the bride's name. He called her "what's her face."
"Shortly after the reception started, his bride was hammered drunk. At one point I walked into the restroom and the bride and her maids were in there.
One of the bridesmaids asked if the barbecue beans were giving anyone gas. To which the bride responded, "HELL YEAH I'VE GOT GAS" so loud that the whole reception heard," said Eagle110.
"My cousin had her wedding at a public park, the officiant was our other cousin who had just turned nineteen and got the one time license to wed a week before.
The wedding had a Star Wars theme and they wanted the officiant to wear a Darth Vader get up but she wouldn't. Then midway through a bunch of people showed up to the (reserved) Park and started LARPing and sword fighting, not to mention the high school students running through the ceremony while they were training for track," shared BurntheUniverse.
"The father of the bride didn't show to the reception because of "a personal emergency" (read: drunk)
The brother of the bride showed up in a vinyl jacket and jeans, proceeded to get fall down drunk off maybe 1/4 a bottle of brandy (dude was maybe 120lbs), and attempted to molest several of the groomsmen," said HebrewHamm3r.
"My parents had a shotgun wedding when they found out I was on my way. There was no proposal or engagement ring, and the big day was planned from start to finish in 3 weeks.
The bride wore a bleached prom dress and arrived in her SIL's white Nissan Micra with ribbons Sellotaped on. They spent £400 on everything and you know what? It turned out just fine and they're happily married after nearly 2 decades," said br8vef4rt.
