wedding day mishaps (feel free to add your own!)

Two of my favorites:

 

my friend's sister was dancing at her wedding & saw a bra pad laying on the dance floor. It was actually my friend's girlfriend's pad, but his sister must have been wearing them too. So she picked it up off the dance floor & stuck it in right there in front of everyone.

 

 

At my friends wedding I was MOH in recently the groom said "take this ring as a sign of my infidelity" instead of "love and fidelity." He turned bright red after that & couldn't stop laughing. The videographer offered to edit it, but they wanted it just how it was. It's a great joke now. During their honeymoon he'd see a lady (typical unattractive) and tell his wife, "sorry baby, but its in my vows."

KWIM? poor girl! and stepdad!

aw man that is a sin! glad he's better though.

LOL these stories are great! Wow Abbie, that one is kinda scary though!

 

There were no major mishaps at our wedding, more like funny moments.

 

Like the minister giving me the mic to repeat after him while he gave DH the ring to put on my finger (so I said "I, Jamy...while he was putting the ring on me LOL the video is awesome!)

 

Then I put his ring on the wrong finger and was all struggling to find the right one LMAO! Note to brides - if you've never put a ring on someone else's ring finger while facing them do a test run in advance, it isn't as easy as one would think! (or maybe it was the pre-ceremony alcohol?)

 

There were sand crabs which I didn't notice, but our ring bearer did and had to be carried up to present the rings because he was barefoot and terrified to touch the sand. I'm told the photog. stopped one from crawling up my train!

 

Make sure you have video guys, photos don't do this stuff justice

Abbie - that is awful! OMG, what a damn shame. So glad that he ended up being ok though!

 

Morgan - love the infidelity one. I cracked up.

Ok so this isn't about stepping in your own poo (or someone else's poo) or bridal party fist fights.

 

My mom's wedding to my stepdad was a freaking zoo. It started off by my aunt (MOH) losing the groom's ring in a creek. We were standing on a bridge waiting to go down the aisle and she grabbed one of my bratty cousin's for climbing on the side of the bridge, and the ring went flying through the air and plop! right into the creek.

 

The ceremony was then delayed for about an hour while all the guests rolled up their pants and waded through the creek for the ring. It was never found but it made for some really great video footage.

 

Then during the ceremony, the mic kept going in and out and doing that really loud screetch. It was horrible. It finally cut out during one of the songs that was being sung. Nothing went right for them.

LOL first of all that kid deserved to be thrown in the creek with the ring, and second of all how devoted were those guests? That's awesome!

[jajajaja]

Yah, I still hate that kid so I wouldn't mind throwing him into the creek now. Still a bratty child at the full grown age of 24.

OMG, these are crazy!

 

I have been to a few nutty weddings myself.

 

One was a distant cousin and the vows consisted of "even though we both have been with lots of other people in our lives you are the one for me." Everyone was so shocked, I had to contain myself not to laugh out loud.
