To ask your ultimate wedding guest scandal?

I’m not Indian but my closest friend is. She has definitely told me brides rewear their wedding lenghas at other weddings. That the amount of make up, hair and jewellery the bride has means there’s no confusion over the bride, but it’s definitely a thing. She got married last year and was looking forward to wearing it again to a wedding later this year but is now pregnant.

Could it be a thing depending on culture?

ETA that I just googled and this came up:

Really don’t want to come across like I know more about your own culture than you, just trying to ease your feelings that it may not have been a deliberate slight!

Geraldine vibes!

My wedding got invaded by the Arsenal team who were all staying at the hotel. Everyone was like......what bride and groom.

I worked at a wedding of a bride who had five bridesmaids. They arrived by car to the venue, wearing very sexy, shot velvet dresses, unusual for a summer wedding, and they were kind of surly on arrival. A few minutes later, another limo pulled up with five smiling bridesmaids in pastel dresses. The bride had asked none of her five sisters to be bridesmaids, so they had showed up as a disgruntled (sexy, velvet-clad) faction, and proceeded to be extremely disagreeable all evening, including starting a scrap in the toilets. The groom was a very nice chap, and I felt sorry for him marrying into such a horrible family.

My exH’s friend’s girlfriend wore a white lace, off the shoulder midi dress to my wedding. No other colours on it- just white- with a white flower in her hair.

It was only the second time I’d met her.

Someone I used to casually shag years ago called me on the morning of his wedding and asked me to come and rescue him... He had been sort of pressed into marrying a girl he'd had an 'accidental' (to be fair to him, she pretended to be using contraception but lied) baby with and wanted out. I didn't go obviously and he went through with it. He ended up drunk with her mother in the disabled toilet... He wasn't fucking her, but he was going down on her (much more his thing) with her sat on the sink. Lots of people at the wedding found out about it in real time. Two people called me to gossip about it on the day and there were fist fights between men in either family (he too told me himself years later).Absurdly, the wife forgave him and they went on for a while, about 18 months, but then he left her. Bizarrely there was never a huge rift with her own mother. That poor girl, how bloody dysfunctional. I will add he has no contact or relationship with the baby now adult. Just an awful mess. His ex wife went on to happily remarry and have two more children, thank goodness and that baby graduated from her Masters degree, not something she'd have achieved if he'd have raised her.

Posted about this before but I was at a wedding where a guest stood on a table and stripped completely naked!

I love Susan!

This kills me. One of the funniest things I’ve read on here.

We had a gatecrasher! I was dancing (on a chair!) at the evening reception and a guy came up to me and said, Who's the bride?! I replied that it was me and he swiftly disiappeared!

Oh my god

Nothing off hand that I can think of, except that at one of my friend;s weddings her sister pretended to faint during the speeches then announced her pregnancy. We all knew she would try some stunt. Pretty tame really!

At ours, one of DH's cousins got hilariously drunk and was escorted away by another cousin. He said 'We are going. Susan is quite tired'. She drew herself up with utter indignation and announced grandly; 'I am NOT tired. I am DRUNK'.

She's fab. I am lucky... all his family are lovely.

Groom and his best man (also his brother) doing coke in the loos. Groom drags him by his feet onto the dance floor at 9pm. He's in full cardiac arrest screaming for help. Bride is doing cpr. Us bridesmaids try to get all the little kids outside. Ambulance arrives. Blue lights him to hospital. He died. All grooms family leaves the wedding. Police arrive. Shut off the music and place themselves outside the loos. Groom at a table crying. Bride still trying to save her wedding and dance in silence....

Went to the 3rd wedding of the groom. He was nearly 60. Bride was late 30's.
His speech included joking about the baby oil he was going to use on his new bride and where he was putting it.
Her parents were sitting on the front row.

The groom's son from his first wife got blind drunk, heckled during the vows then grabbed his dad's car keys and drove his car into that of another guest. I should add that his parents had been divorced for 10 years and the bride only met him 2 years ago.

My mother in law wore a long white gown to my wedding!!!!

@MissJoGrant Dr Who fan?

Wedding reception in a village hall. Bridesmaid and best man had sex in the kitchen after the caterers had cleaned up and left. Bridesmaid somehow sat in the leftover wedding cake during the act.

I was not aware until many years after my wedding that one of my husband’s friends had drunkenly threatened my brother-in-law. He was quietly dealt with by the best men and proceeded to go home and be very sick (red wine) all over another friend’s bathroom.

Went to a wedding when I was with my ex. It was his friend who I knew fairly well but I'd only met the bride a handful of times. The bride was a classic bridezilla and everything had to be absolutely perfect.

I wore a blue floral print dress from M&S with a cream jacket and shoes. Another lady who I'd never met before was wearing the same dress but with a navy jacket and shoes. We laughed about the dress and said it was bound to happen with M&S. Neither of us was that bothered about it.

Bride had a complete meltdown about it at the reception when we'd removed our jackets and she noticed we were both in the same dress. She was sobbing saying it spoiled the aesthetics. I still have no idea what she meant.

I'm not Indian but always liked the idea of the bride in red so I wore red to my own wedding but I had slept with the groom😂.
