Just being nosy, really!

How long is the shortest marriage you’ve seen and why did it end so quickly?

An ex colleague was 6 months. They got hugely in debt for a really lavish day and honeymoon. Their wedding was more than my mortgage at the time!

I know 2 short ones...first my brothers ex went to change her dress after wedding party before honeymoon and was found with best man..That one was anulled..And the second one was an aunt she got married on a Friday and on the Saturday morning left the house and said she never actually wanted to be married and reckoned she was pressured into it. So that was also annulled

I know of a 2 month one. Bride wasn't really sure anyway and then ended things. Good thing really, he was vile
Also know of one that was on very shaky ground after 4 months. They had been together barely a year when they married. They stayed together though
I think a lot of times people get caught up in the idea of marriage rather than the actual person. I also think a lot of people feel like they can't say no once everything is organised
