    #1: Pig roast wedding gone wrong!

    Font - Galactic Dystopia - 20 hr. ago Some years ago, I started a new job and got reacquainted with a guy I hadn't seen since high school. He was a little bit hillbilly but an alright guy (seemingly at least), and he invited me to his wedding. I go there with my then girlfriend and it's at a back field in his uncle's farm. Definitely a redneck setup but we decided to give it a chance.

    Font - The first red flag was it being 10am and several people were already faced drunk. Like they were either still ripped from the night before, or they started drinking at 7am or something Next red flag was the entire pig carcass being spit roasted over a bonfire. It was very clear this pig was not properly slaughtered. I went to go look at it more closely when I realized I wasn't smelling normal farm manure. There was and bile leaking out of as it this pig's cooked. They didn't even remove i

    Font - That was when I got a closer look at its head. Half of it was missing, almost like it was point blank with a So yeah, it was mere minutes afterward that the cops rolled up. Turns out, the groom and his idiot brother stole a pig from his uncle's neighbor, with a 12-gauge buckshot and proceeded to just impale it with rebar and decide that was enough to qualify as a pig roast. it

    Font - The groom was already wasted, yelling about how the only pigs that should be there is the one over the fire, and tried to fight the cop. So groom gets arrested, weddings ruined, and the pigs stomach explodes over the fire, dousing it with the most foul smelling mix of blood, bile, and burnt bacon I have ever had the displeasure of actually inhaling. 122 Reply Share

    #2: Let them eat cake, I guess!

    Font - TuPacSchwartz411. 19 hr. ago I knew almost no one at this wedding. Was a work friend of my wife's, had never met any of these people except 1 couple. Groom tells the bride to NOT smash cake in his face. They seem to be joking about it, but it's obviously escalating to being serious. She had a large piece of cake in her hand and desperately trying to smash it in his face, he's without a doubt angry AF and yelling don't do it! They're grabbing at each other and she gets him in the face.

    Font - Then the step that caused the melee. He grabs her by the back of the head and slams her face into the cake on the table, knocking the cake and the bride to the floor. Her brother runs up, punches the groom dead square in the face. Drops him. Grooms family rushes in and attacks the brother. Father of the bride and his brothers jump in. All breaks loose.

    Font - I grab my wife and go the back of the room where the bar is and watch. Police are called and several members of both families are in cuffs and everyone is kicked out. F'n crazy

    #3: Nothing like a rude bridezilla!

    Font - MotherOfBorzoi 20 hr. ago One where the bride hated me. No idea why, I'd only met her once prior for about 5 minutes, she said one thing to me the entire time and it was mind blowingly rude. Didn't say a word to me at the wedding, even after presenting our gift. Super awkward wedding. I don't think anyone really cared for her honestly

    #5: There's a difference between being cost-effective and being ridiculous

    Font - Samisoy001 15 hr. ago. edited 7 hr. ago . Friend of mine and his now ex decided to go as cheap as possible on the wedding. I am fine with cheap, but she took pipe cleaners and construction paper and made flowers with them. They also rented a big hall and used an $80 CD player boombox and let her brother be the "DJ" for the night and because the cd player was so small you could hardly hear it. Also 2 weeks before the wedding she sent out an email that she changed her mind and wanted everyo

    Font - I was going to be the best man, but she insisted she write my wedding speech and when I told her I am a big boy and can make my own, I was downgraded all the way to guest. She pissed of so many people that at least %70 of the people didn't show up. She had tables setup with peoples names on where to sit and they were mostly empty.

    Font - She cried all night because she could not understand why so many people didn't show up. It was the most depressing wedding/reception I have ever experienced in my life. She was the worst kind of bridzilla.

    #6: A wedding of TWO actors? Run!

    Font - CrazyCatLadyBoy 19 hr. ago I went to a wedding of two actors. They did their traditional ceremony, which took forever, and then near the end they did some skit about it not being fun enough. They entire wedding party left and came back down dancing, trying to get everyone else to dance, and pretending they're in a viral video or something. The first part was way too long, the second was just embarrassing.

    #8: A grocery store wedding? WHY?!

    Font - wyoflyboy68 17 hr. ago I drove limousines for a friend for several years and drove for lots of wedding parties. I picked up a young bride to be, maid of honor, brides maids at the local Mormon church and drove them to a parking lot at a local grocery store where the wedding took place, in the parking lot. Grocery store customers were coming and going, which was also located along a busy section of road in town. Just a really weird vibe all round, but hey, it was their wedding, do what you

    Font - gobackoverthere. 14 hr. ago A friend of a friend served Subway footlong sandwiches at their wedding reception. Which would have been okay with any variety, but they were all tuna.

    #10: 11am on a Thursday? It's like they knew this marriage wouldn't last!

    Font - kyryss5510 17 hr. ago . Ooo! My husband's sister; second marriage, to her BF of like 3 months, at a tiny local carousel in their birthday party room. Chipotle catered. Didn't really have vows or anything, super short and awkward, held at 11:00am on a Thursday. Got the "invite" a few days prior. They split after about 6 weeks.
