Wedding season is upon us! And if you’re not the lucky Panda who’s getting hitched this year, you’ll probably have to be a guest at a wedding or two. A 2016 The Knot wedding study found that the average adult attends two weddings a year, and that it usually costs them around $1,000 in gifts, attire, and travel accommodation.
But some weddings might cost the guests something else: their sanity. You can see some pretty wild stuff at weddings, and netizen @queenrichter knew this when she asked wedding guests to share their “most unhinged” experiences.
We’re going to be honest; the comment section under her video has some crazy stuff: from grooms that were made up by the bride to family members having heart attacks, these folks have seen a lot!

My cousin wanted a carnival-themed wedding with a limited budget. The DIY was impressive, but when I got there, my aunt (the mother of the bride) told me that my sister and I had the first shift running the cotton candy machine, and she forgot to tell me. Do you know how messy cotton candy is? I was churning out cotton candy to ungrateful guests when I looked around and noticed all of the family members were working carnival games and serving food to acquaintances of the couple. When I die, I have it in my will to make my cousin and aunt run a cotton candy machine at my wake.

Bride only had 1 box of Triscuits & a small grocery veggie tray to feed 7 bridesmaids until 4 pm. Bride was a chronic cheater & one of the groomsmen was a guy who she cheated with. Dry wedding, outside in summer, only had finger food that spoiled in the sun. Rural wedding. When we left, couldn’t find food for 15 miles. Changed out of my bridesmaid dress in the Wendy’s bathroom before I scarfed down my first real meal all day😳

One of the groomsmen planned on asking his girlfriend of two months to marry him at the reception without asking the groom or bride beforehand. But fortunately (?) it didn’t happen because they both got drunk and had a fist fight in the parking lot. (The girlfriend won.)

My friends MIL said in her speech “you may be his wife, but I’m his mother and you’ll never have him to yourself”. I was sitting right infront of the stand, I looked at her and she was 😳 so I death stared the MIL the rest of the night. She also made the bride cry at the end of the night cause she was hammered. My own mother was gonna fight this woman 😅😅

The father of the groom got up to give a toast, which ended up being a six-page apology to his first wife (the groom’s mom), practically begging her to take him back…while standing next to his new wife.

Didn’t make it a bad wedding, but at my bestie’s wedding, someone dressed up, pretended to be a guest, and tried to rob the cards that contained money. The groom is a cop, so he spotted him, and the police were called.

My uncle was getting married, but everyone in my family hated his fiancé. Right before their wedding, my grandma’s (uncle’s mom) phone died, and his fiancé had a charger. We soon found out that my grandma’s phone was fully broken, not just out of power, so his fiancé said she could borrow her phone and put her details in to access messages. We found out the fiancé had been cheating on my uncle for eight years.

My worst experience was my OWN wedding. We hired a restaurant to cater for 150 guests. Fewer than 100 people showed up. We told our caterers that a lot of people didn’t make it, so they only served food once to our guests and took the rest home. THEY rationed the food, and HID the rest from us! My husband and I didn’t know this happened because we were too busy. Everyone just assumed we didn’t pay for enough food.

I was a bridesmaid with no plus one. The meal was open seating, yet there were NO open seats for me. It was buffet-style eating, but I wasn’t sure when I was supposed to eat since I wasn’t at a table, so I didn’t eat, but I stood the entire reception to be supportive. Once the music started, I gave the bride my love/congratulations before I left, and she cried while telling me that I ruined her day for leaving at nine o’clock. She hasn’t spoken to me since.

This happened at a hotel I worked at when I wasn’t on shift: The bride was part of a well-known criminal family (seriously bad stuff). On the wedding day, a rival family showed up uninvited and started shooting. Armed police had to end the situation, whilst staff were hiding under and behind furniture.

Do 400 km to go to a wedding, discover that we were not invited to the civil ceremony but only the religious ceremony, be invited to the wine of honor and the ball but not to the meal. (wedding of my SO’s cousin)

At my sisters wedding. There was this girl that was catering that hurt my friend in highschool, so we were natural enemies from her betrayal and toxicity. When she brought my plate, it was a raw, uncooked steak and a dirty, unbaked potato.

The bride had a cell phone-free wedding. The ceremony was one hour because the bride was running late, and we put our phones in the basket prior to sitting. We could not access phones at cocktail hour and weren’t allowed to get them until dinner was over. I waited three and a half hours before I could get my phone and immediately left.

Groom said in his speech that the things he did in his past with his friends (us) were wrong and that he would be a new man now. Never saw him again
