AWFUL wedding stories....Did you have an awful wedding?What happened?Can you beat this?

For my "wedding" I wore a sun dress that was too big.My hair was undone and I had to pin it in an ugly style.My hubby wore a dress shirt,dress pants and old black sneakers.There were 8 people at the "ceremony"which was held in the small living room of an upstairs apartment at 11:30 at night.Went to a motel 6 for our "honeymoon". Had the "reception" 2days later in a rented hall.My mother in law only wanted close relatives so there were only 12 people there(5 from my family,but that's all that lived in that state).My father in law played a f*ckin fiddle.We danced to a slow tune played with this fiddle(my hubby has 3 left feet so we looked horrible).Then we cut the cake(which was homemade for us without our input and I HATE white cake so could barely bite into it).After this,the radio was played(I think it was a hip-hop station).Then my brother got up on stage and sang this awful song that I didn't recognize claiming it was for me.Then he followed this tune with a 6

My husband has agoraphobia and cannot leave the house. I went to the courthouse/cityhall to fill out the license papers and the Justice of the peace had to come by my house for my husband to sign them. When he got there he said "Since I'm already here would you like for me to marry you"....It was kind of a spontaneous type day anyways so we said sure...Our families live to far away from us to have made it, and all of our friends were at work, college, out...the only person around was my now brother-in-law. We asked if he wanted to come out on the porch with us to see our wedding (as it was) and he said "nah" cause he was too busy playing Everquest. We had no option at a honeymoon cause my husband can't leave the house, and my brother-in-law wouldn't leave even for a night so we could have some privacy. Never got any gifts or anything and even though we asked, no one from our families could spare the time to come down that weekend for an informal reception.

If he ever gets well I am planning on doing the whole renfest wedding thing where everyone gets a tankard of grog for the ceremony and parties out...but yeah...that was my lame assed wedding.

ENOUGH ALREADY. I HAVE READ ENOUGH OF WHAT YOU ALLOWED TO HAPPEN....SOME OF US HAVE NO CONTROL OVER 'HORRIBLE THINGS THAT HAPPENED'.

Remember this was a long time ago. 1970. BACK IN THE DAYS THAT IF A GIRL WAS NOT A VIRGIN OR PREGNANT GOING DOWN THE ISLE, IT WAS CAUSE FOR A LOT OF TALK AMONGST FRIENDS AND FAMILY TRYING TO HIDE IT.

Well, I was not pregnant and a virgin. Thing is NO ONE BELIEVED IT!

My cousin was a year older and was pregnant the year that she married at 17 to a man that was 27. So, all I heard was you are next. I finished hi school at 18, went to college for 2 years and decided to get married. I had known my hubby since 16 and he was 3 years older. He use to pick me and a neighbor up and take us to hi school when he got off night shift. My KNOW ITALL AUNT showed up one morning, I answerd the door in my night gown and she saw my bf (hubby) on the sofa cat napping. SHE SPREADED THE RUMOR THAT I WAS HAVING SEX IN MY MOM'S HOME AND SHOULD BE PREGNANT ANYDAY NOW.

Then, 2 years later, the church was buzzing with rumors cause my wedding was running 30 mins. late. "SHE IS HAVING TROUBLE TRYING TO HIDE THAT SHE IS PREGNANT!"

The truth was, I had my period, in all that white dress, and my Sister-in-law almost was arrested for speeding to get me a tampon.

My dress escaped the embarasment; however, imagine hearing a police escort coming into the back of the church and the wedding is already 30 mins late. My sis-n-law had told the Irish cop and he took off with the Sirens!

Well, when the rumors were replaced with the truth, PEOPLE ACTUALLY APOLOGIZED FOR SPREADING RUMORS AND TOLD ME WHAT THEY HAD BEEN THINKING.

Don't you just love family rumors!

That does suck, but maybe you should have waited?? I mean this is a very special day for you, or it was suppose to be? Just because you are pregnant does not mean you have to get married. Just after me and my fiance announced our engagement I found out i was pregnant, my daughter just turned two and we just started planning the wedding. I refuse to have a lame and cheap wedding and it will be nice that our daughter can participate in it. maybe you guys can save up and in a year or two have a great renewal of your vowels? it will give you guys something to look forward to!

1. Sounds like "Mama's Family" and is very believable.

2. Are you married to the same man?

3. Thank goodness your mom has a home.

4. You can ask for "no telephone calls"

5. Have you considered sending this to Hollywood for a sitcom? Are you really unhappy about it? Didn't the baby make you happy?

6. Do you have photographs? Do you have your own home?

Do you have additional children?

I'm sorry your wedding was so bad for you, I guess at 16 it is hard to stand up to other people telling you what to do, it's hard enough at 31 to try and kindly say to people "thanks for the ideas, but I'm gonna do things my way" so at age 16 it must have been very upsetting to find yourself in this situation. You can always have a vow renewal you know, and I think it would be good for you to lay those awful memories to rest and celebrate your marriage in style.

No, I can't beat this one. I thought that getting an invitation to a wedding in a park where guests had to bring their own chairs, their own food and booze was bad. But, this tops that! You know, you should send this to Oprah and see if she'll arrange it for you to have a better wedding.

I had a couple I was supposed to marry get hit and killed by a drunk driver 3 weeks before the wedding. They laid her to rest in her wedding dress.

No matter what goes wrong as long as you have one another and you are marrying the love of your life, you have to laugh and go with the flow. Not everyone gets to have their day.

BTW that was a generally reflective statement not intended to trivialize in any way the way original poster feels about their day.

Wow ... if you were 16 and he was 25 then he should be behind bars for rape. I think that is the epitome of awful wedding though.

WOW! I'm so sorry. I didn't have a terrible wedding, but I was 18 when I got married and didn't know all that I know now about weddings and vendors. So, I hired this photographer that someone recommended to me. We didn't have a contract,but he told me that for pics of the whole wedding and reception it would only be $400 and he'd give me a set of prints and give me the proofs.

Well, when he showed up to my office to give me the pics he told me that it would cost an extra $100 cause he had to use "extra" film. I gave it to him cause I wanted my pictures. Then as I was looking through everything I noticed that he had the pics developed at the local Winn Dixie Grocery store and so my family was pissed that he took extra money from me and we were thinking of taking him to court. My mom and mother in law were looking through the proofs and found pics of the photographer with STRIPPERS on the same reels of film that my wedding pics were on!!!!!!!!!!!

I tried to find that guy and never could.

That's my only complaint about my wedding.
