After watching Gavin and Stacey, do people really [big spoiler for the Christmas special]? Title edited by MNHQ

I’m trying not to give any spoilers but I did really enjoy Christmas episode. I’ve just watched it now however I want to know has anybody ever been to a wedding where people have stood up and said that person can’t marry that person because is that just something that happens in films or does it ever happen in real life?

Well yea because I am sitting at the bed of a relative who is sick and sleeping in hospital so yes I do. Honestly do you have the capacity to think?

I've only seen it happen on tv. My favourite was the lady in the vicar of dibley who came in raging that the groom was still married to her but it turned out she was at the wrong wedding!

I'm assuming it does happen occasionally in real life but I have never seen it happen.

How

I know a Vicar to whom it happened - once.
A man stood up and the Congregation froze. The vicar simply asked him what he wanted and the man asked if they loved each other. He was told that they did and said ‘Well, that’s all right then’ And sat down again.
Absolutely hair raising for everyone

I'm sure it does happen occasionally, there are some really dysfunctional people and families who get married. At 'normal' weddings I think it's very unlikely. Never happened at any I've been a guest at, more's the pity

The objections are only if it's a legal reason! Like they are already married to other people/brother and sister/impersonating someone etc. The idea of "it just doesn't seem like your a good fit" isn't good enough to stop a wedding!!!

It's been 2 days. It's up to you to avoid anything gavin and Stacey titled, you surely can't expect spoiler alerts.

I am very sorry

I expect people to put spoiler alert. It's two days over Xmas! Have some manners. I am sitting in a hospital with a sick relation and keeping my head going and there's smart Alecs going on.

Spoiler alerts are basic common sense and courtesy!

I never heard anything like this in real life but I bet quite a few of people I know wouldn’t mind it if they could go back.

Oh yeah sorry.

Aren't you the bloody spirit of the season. You must be very proud of yourself

Wow.
How nasty some people can be.

I agree, and I haven't watched it yet either and wouldn't consider OP's title a spoiler, we would need much more information for that. Some people must lead very dull lives if this is enough to upset them!

If you don't want to know, don't click on threads mentioning gavin and Stacey 2 days after it aired

They are always doing it in EastEnders.

It’s in the thread title though, so hard to avoid.

You click the 'report' button.

Anyway I've done it for you saying you would like the thread title edited.

You have nothing to apologise for OP, some people are just dicks, MN seems to attract them.

You do realise the title gave it away 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️

I went to one where a dog (brides ring bearer) started barking setting a baby howling at that point. Everyone laughed, the dog didn't know anything, of course.

It really doesn't

Well I disagree! As has the spiteful posts on here. Honestly pure vile some people are.

I wish they had at mine.
