To ask for examples of the worst behaviour you've seen from an adult at a wedding?

[HappyHappyHawaii]

Attended one yesterday as a bridesmaid. The brides cousin was also a bridesmaid, spent the whole morning clearly aggrieved that the day wasn't about her... smoked in the getting ready suite and had to be told to put it out, then lit up again and claimed she had forgotten when the bride told her and made a snarky comment..then presented her silver converse she had customised to wear with her dress as she "doesn't really do heels"... the bride ignored her and sweetly said "at this point I don't think I can stop you" as she knows what she's like then what do you know, she wears the heels! There were loads of instances like this all day and she is 28 but seemed to want to just be am inconvenience all day which I assume was jealousy...even little things like being late for photos and pretending not to hear when called over, pushing the food round her plate, really ungracious behaviour. The wedding was fantastic! She could have really enjoyed it much more. Not really an aibu but whats the worst behaviour youve seen like this?

Well, i know she couldnt help it but it totally ruined her granddaughter's day!

It's funny how genuflecting people can be.

Our village- the mother of a famous tv person lives here. Bleeding heck she is waited upon like royalty. And boy does she milk it. She channels the Queen Mother (really quite well) and has people scurrying around her fetching her her cups of tea and chairs etc whenever there is some sort of village event. She also makes very loud pronouncements about 'things' .... someone being too large for their dress, or how dreadful an MC might be and people laugh and say to each other 'Isn't she marvellous'. No... but she IS pretty ghastly. I find it fascinating to watch.

This is Broken Britain 2026. I emigrated 23 years ago so as to live amongst civilised people. Left my home and adult kids, so I return to visit them 2 x per year. Every time I set foot on British soil, I inwardly weep for what has happened to Britain and count the days until I leave.

And you posted on this light-hearted thread why? 🙄

Re.the bread roll / penis incident.
Im also doubting it. particularly because of the wording

" he popped his penis in a bread roll and buttered it "
Wouldn't you butter a bread FIRST before you put anything in it....?

Now you're just being pedantic 🤣🤣

This guy's kinky. Publicly buttering his willy is all part of the trip.

Oh god..how boring.
How many of your guests sat with glazed over eyes ?

Butter then penis? Or penis then butter?

It's a bit like the jam/cream first on a scone debate. Perhaps it depends if you're from Devon or Cornwall.

Or milk in first tea in first

I think I can understand that.

I've been at a wedding 'do' where you think "Oh, when can I go home?" 😑

Cream right at the end.

Sorry.

I wonder this, too when I read things like this and the story about the fainting sister who threatened to do it beforehand.

It baffles me how passive people can be. There’s absolutely no way I’d tolerate any of this crap. The sister would have been uninvited, and if anyone took her side, even parents, they could join her.

The in-laws would have been kicked out, as would the groom if he took their side. I just cannot understand why people allow others to treat them with such contempt and disrespect, especially from so-called family.

Knob head!

😮🙄😱

Ritual humiliation when laughed at can be far more effective than 'calling out', thoughts of Heidelberg and scars across cheeks when I see that phrase! Many many years ago, about 1972, a young colleague was told by a 14 year old pupil that he'd like to 'give her one', much to the amusement of his coterie of friends. She very slowly looked him up and down, he looked increasingly uncomfortable, and his friends weren't laughing, and she quietly said 'Don't send a little boy to do a man's job'. He and his crowd never said anything to her again like that and when they left, never having been in any trouble since, they gave her a huge bouquet of flowers and apologised. Not the MN way I know!

Don't slam the door as you leave. Pleased you made better choices in Eutopia than you obviously made in the UK regarding your 'people'.

Omg. What a way to go!

People are people wherever you go...good and bad. What a strange thing for you to say!

groom announces at the altar that the bride has been cheating with his brother for over a year so good bye and god bless he’s done with her, its a destination wedding with both families and family adjacent people staying in the same hotel and a once a week flight out …let’s just say it was an interesting 2 weeks with some eye opening revelations and frosty meals

My ex-H : speech started with ‘on behalf of my first wife and I’ 😖
Apparently did same at his second wedding, saying ‘second’ instead of first.
He actually invited me to his second wedding. We had a horrendously acrimonious split and he said he wanted me to see how happy another woman made him 😏 That and he needed someone to look after our daughter who was their bridesmaid 😏
He never made it to a third wife after the second wife left him.

My cousin used to work in a kilt hire shop - she reckoned that at least 50% of returned kilts would have bags of something in the sporran that had been forgotten (you usually need to return kilts pretty quickly following hire).

As I said up thread, my husband is in the wedding industry. He’s seen both brides and grooms on coke. He said it’s more prevalent than alcohol at some weddings where obvious work has been done to faces- probably because there are fewer calories in a bag of coke than a glass of wine!

Not really. A lot of us do live amongst civilised people in Britain. I have never ever seen anything like the behaviour mentioned on this thread.

If you’re having an “inwardly weep” every time you visit, then you were obviously living in a really shit area.

Peendantic
