Oooh. I like this one!

I did not attend this wedding, but an old worker told me about hers.

A friend of mine who I lost touch with asked me last-minute to stand up in her wedding (last minute - about two months before the wedding). Apparently her sister had quit. I lived across the country from her and the rest of her wedding party (who I didn't know). Never having really stood up in a wedding other than my…

My first husband, who we will call George, had to stand in for both his father and his stepfather at the weddings of his sister and half-sister (his father walked out on his family *using George's seventh birthday party as cover*). Both weddings were pretty dreadful, but his half-sister, who we will call Georgina, had…

Ok, now this was around ten years ago or so. When I was a young Marine, my entire unit was invited to the wedding of one of our Sergeants. The wedding was fairly nice and had an open bars so everything was going great. The ceremony went off with no issues and we had over 200 marines in attendance, which is saying…

This was in about 1979. After high school my best friend decided to join the navy and shipped out from Chicago to GA. About a year later, she invited me to her wedding in Smyrna, GA. She was marrying a guy she met in the navy. I got to Smyrna and was told I along with 2 other friends of the bride would be staying in…

Don't you just put it in a paper bag on the counter?

Probably won't be the worst, but the wounds are still fresh so I'll share. Two months ago my dad emails me about a potluck family reunion (the event took place 2 weeks ago) because some cousins are about to leave the state so its kind of a going away party for them. Five days before the reunion everybody gets an email…

Worst wedding I've attended?

My grandfather's marriage to his second wife.

First off, my father refused to attend, and would not acknowledge the fact that my grandfather remarried. As rude as that sounds, my dad actually felt bad for this woman and my grandfather is actually a true asshole. EVERYONE is talking about…

My stepsister got married last year when she was 18 and the groom was 21.

In reverse order, it wasn't too bad.

Highschool friend's wedding at a country getaway/resort(ish) type of place:

Holiday wedding at a lovely winery surrounded by rolling hills with two GIANT idiots. Everything that the Bride and Groom planned was excellent, tasteful, and beautiful. Let it be said that the two massive ass-hats are friends of the Groom.

I had the ... honor? ... privilege?... bad luck? to be the guest at a wedding that was, from start to finish, horrendous. I don't remember the actual names of the people involved, so I apologize if I accidentally use their real names. My then boyfriend's cousin, Jim, was the groom, and Jim's brother, Terry, was a…

my wedding:

My parents come from two very different backgrounds. My father's family, all Catholic, have long drawn out weddings. But, this story is not about those tortuous events. No, I shall share a story from my mother's side. I was only a baby when this happened, so I have to rely on second hand accounts:

My mother's side is…

I have two. The first is short.

My cousin got married on December 31st, 2010. It was in another part of the state and we were staying at the wedding venue that night. On top of that, my cousin was determined to set me up with her husband's brother.

I was at a wedding a couple of weeks ago where...

My wedding story might not be as disastrous as many, but it still was not a pleasant situation to be in.
