Found some crazy wedding stories on this Askreddit thread today. Still reading through but may come back and mention any faves later.

Having read some of those, I'm very glad mine was comparatively uneventful.

The worst that happened at mine was a friend who had been engaged for several years and really, really resented me for getting married first. (She finally did it last year - I'm on my eleventh anniversary). She spent the entire reception badgering her boyfriend about "So when are we doing this then?" while he looked henpecked and mumbled "I dunno."

I was actually somewhat surprised that the near complete lack of drama at my wedding to my ex-husband.  MrC and I aren't legally married, though there's some thoughts towards somewhere around 2020, after my youngest turns 18.  We shall see what happens then.

On the other hand, MrC's daughter's wedding two years ago had some interesting drama.  Thankfully, the drama was kept away from the brides, so from their point of view, everything was perfect, and that's exactly how it should be.

I think this one wins the internet.

Wow! That MIL was some piece of work. The red wine strategy does ring a bell.

Reminds me of a scene from the rebooted Upstairs Downstairs (on Netflix) where there’s a need to get rid of an unwanted guest (literally a Nazi) who was brought as someone’s very unexpected plus one.

I don't even care if it was real or not, that was beautiful. If I were the bride, that friend would be getting a nice bottle of wine for Christmas for the rest of her life.
MIL might get served some red two buck Chuck at some occasions as well.

I thought it was the same subreddit where there was the story about the mom wearing the bride's actual dress, but I can't find it now.

I was glad my wedding was comparatively uneventful, too.  The worst thing that happened was that the ring Mr. Gyrus had bought to give me didn't fit, and after him trying to get it on my finger I whispered, "Just stick it on my pinkie and we'll sort it out later!"  Which we did.

Aaand another reddit thread about appalling wedding guest behaviour. There’s one where the guest stole the wedding gown after the bride changed into her going away outfit.  :o

My favorite (and I can't find the link) is the Reddit story from somebody's cousin's wedding. The groom didn't show up and didn't show up so, finally, in those pre-cell phone days, a delegation of male guests went to his apartment to see if something serious had happened.

The "groom" was rather surprised. He informed them that no, we aren't getting married; we aren't engaged; heck, we aren't even dating.

As I recall, the "groom" was known to the family, but was not close. The bride managed to convince people that he didn't show up for photographs or pre-wedding festivities because he was a doctor in residency whose schedule was too busy for such things.

Second favorite is the guy who showed up at his golf club ready to play a round, and walked into his own wedding, bride standing at the altar and all that. The couple were not engaged. The last thing the OP saw was the "groom" turning around and leaving with the bride running after him.

Wow! What a mess. Great story to tell later though (unless you helped pay for one of the delusional weddings).

My aunt wore a ivory pantsuit... joke was on her, I had a BBQ reception, she dropped sauce all over it. It's my mom's side's family recipe. I've NEVER been able to get it 100% out. She ruined her top.

Both of those are crazy!

But, weren't the brides parents at least tipped off in both instances when literally no family or friends of the groom showed up? That "delegation of male guests" never thought to go find groomsmen? People are weird.
