" I, Megan Katherine, do take Megan Katherine, to be my lawfully wedded Megan Katherine"
I had a big Indian wedding. I invited around 30 people. My parents invited around 80. My wife and her parents invited over 400. I literally didn't know anyone for large parts of the day.
My pants split just as I sat down at the wedding of my youngest son. I still haven't had the courage to look at the pictures ten years later!
Aw, that's cute! I'd have loved a child doing that at my wedding. Hilarious.
Father of the GROOM!!!!! I would have been seriously pissed if my old man did this.
Our flower girl dumped her whole basket at the end of the aisle and then started walking back out the aisle as I was walking down saying "wanna fro flowers" so we let her 😂. She's now almost 17 and we still kid her about it. She's a love bug and I wouldn't have changed it for the world.
The day before my dad's first day of work ever, he tried to impress my mom by turning his face as red as possible. Blew two black eyes doing so.
That would be me, but I would also keep them on a note card or something
Why go through with it? The bride and her family could have just had a party that day and moved on.
You don't ignore the flower girl without facing the embarrassing consequences.;)
It's the fault of the Limo service for waiting to confirm the services as long as they did. They should have called the night before. Also while they are not to blame it's definitely worth noting that you should not give your cell phone number if you are the bride or groom. Your best man and maid of honor (or literally anyone else in the wedding party) are the ones who are supposed to manage phones the day of.
I guess it depends on how old your little brother was... 3? okay. 33? maybe not okay.
What is it about people that they think their opinion matters SO much, that it's ok to do something like that?
You wouldn't believe how common is that here in Venezuela, actually not the first story I've heard regarding weddings and airline fails like that hahaha
This works really well actually - went to a wedding recently where this was the plan. By the time the couple were back from honeymoon they had thousands of fabulous candid shots that a professional photographer would never have managed. It was a fairly casual outdoor wedding though. Maybe it wouldn't be the best option for something more formal.
You’re not. You should probably fix that. My grandma was adopted and used what she thought was her real name to get married. The nuns were wrong. When she found and reconnected with her family, it turns out it was way off and they had to go to city hall in their 60’s to fix it.
Went to a wedding where the groom toasted his new wife with his ex-girlfriends name.
My mom used to make me sing that song, and the angry vocals in it are just too hilarious 😂😂😂
Wonder if people thought that you were going to leave your fiance at the alter?
Wait... how? wouldn't the correct twin be... I don't know... wearing a wedding dress?
That's why you shouldn't hold the parties the day before but two days before at least.
I was pregnant with our 3rd child at our wedding. We are really bad at planning LOL and it was a planned pregnancy, any ways, had to get sparkling apple cider. We are a picture of my 5 year old with the whole bottle ripping it up in a corner while looking around suspiciously. I guess he thought it was real.
Punctuation and spelling be damned! Someone please revoke this dude's twitter license.
This is why babies and weddings don't mix... I mean, I love 'em, but there's a time and a place...
If you signed the license you are. You don't even have to have a ceremony.
Having very young children as ring bearers might be cute but it does come with risks!!
yep. a lot of people here in Germany chose "I will always love you" from Whitney Houston for their weddings. The song is about breaking up... sigh.
After reading all about these uncles, I am determined not to invite any of mine to my own wedding.
Perhaps I am confused, but I thought the point of elopement was to get it done privately and announce it to one's family as a done deal.
He handled it with aplomb! Must have been very embarrassing for him too.
...you can get rid of all the music off of your player except for what's on the playlist... then put it back on after the event... complete lack of planning
It's not custom, it's law (if you want to be legally married that is!)
When I got married, my Mom and I went to have our hair styled. When we got back in the car, and the radio came on, someone had called in to make a remark about "A man getting married today who dedicated a song to his wife." He even mentioned the name of the song. (Our song)
I read another post about a bride that was two hours late to her own wedding because of her bachelorette party and he still married her (yes, I read all posts XD)
Do to obligations I attend about 3 to 5 wedding receptions a year. I have rarely seen one where it did not end up in a drunken orgy. I hate going but usually have to. I try to only stay as long as I can get away with. Always try to get out before the drinking gets too bad. I can't tell you the number of times I have seen many of the guest arrive at the reception already blind drunk. Makes me disgusted. Usually the more spent on alcohol the shorter the marriage.
This is thee second one on the list! Why don't all these selfish show-offs who are desperate to include non-pets at their events think about the welfare of the animals in question?? Yes. Yes I'm angry.
As the officiant I will not perform a ceremony if either of the parties is drunk. They are not legally capable of entering into a binding contract while under the influence. And yes, it's happened.
I call bs, with a sharp knife it's easy to tear down the wrap, i could've get in in 15 minutes max.
My brother was trying to save on costs so his wedding location was an old barn in the middle of a forest. I'm very allergic to both trees and mold. I spent the entire wedding struggling to breathe and puffy faced and that is really all I remember about the wedding. Also, the maid of honor and father of the bride speeches were so long and bad (I think they mentioned the bride once, mostly talking about themselves) at my cousin's wedding, that the best man decided his speech to about 30 sec because he was hungry. He got the biggest round of applause.
Your brother is kind of a d**k for doing that, if he already knew about your allergies.
