Wedding blunders

[laurence2]

Have you had a blunder, or been to a wedding that has.

I got married in a catholic church, i'm not catholic {my wife is} so i had to go to a series of meetings to meet the priest etc, anyway the priest told us of a storey where the bride was kneeling down in front of the alter, and when she stood up, she was standing on her dress, and it pulled the front of the wedding dress down, revealling her Boobs, i burst out laughing and said give us a copy of the video, i'll run some copies of and sell them for you, he had a face like thunder, it was clear by now, that this was no laughing matter, and he did'nt what to carry on with the meeting, but my wife won him around, and after i apologised and offered to make a sizeable payment to the church funds, i was forgiven.

I've never lived it down tho, my wife makes sure of that lol

My step-dad swore when he got his name wrong when marrying my mum. He said the line again and got it wrong again after 5 attempts he finally remembered his name. The registrar was not a happy lady the wedding was delay by half an hour waiting for my sister to turn up as she was a witness.

I had a similar experience to the 'video lady' during my first wedding. I was dressed in the big meringue (in my defence it was the 80's) underneath I was wearing a sexy basque for later...

Anyway I was kneeling at the altar and my boobs fell out ~ luckily it wasn't a low cut dress, but it was uncomfortable none the less! when I got up I had to hold on to my bodice and make a quick getaway to the vestry...later on we were just about to leave the church in the wedding car ~ the door was open and someone raced passed, taking the door off the swanky BMW we had hired! I guess that marriage was doomed from the start ;o)

At my second wedding we walked up the aisle to 'Get Around' by the Beach Boys as the lady operating the CD player picked the wrong track. There we were making an entrance to ''round round get around I get around''. I hope this one will last!

Yes, I turned up for both of mine.

My brother-in-law got married a few years ago to a woman with , erm , a colourful past. I was miffed that he didn't pick my hubby as his best man as he was our best man - only because I felt that my hubby should ask him as it was tradition. He wasn't my hubby's first choice. Anyway , when it came to the speeches , the best man - my brother-in-law's friend - made a complete mess of it. God knows what went through his head when he stood up and announced to the whole reception that he had been with the bride. He said that she was well known for being a party girl and when all the boys went dogging school with her at a certain location , it was a case of "Hey , hey , it's party time with Miss x" There was a lot of uncomfortable shuffling and daggers from the bride and groom as he proudly announced how he had been there and that the groom was just one on a very long list. This would have been a cue for the tumbleweed blowing past. It went from bad to worse as he became more insulting and afterwards couldn't see anything wrong with what he had said. He seemed to think that he had been funny but he was the only one laughing. Painful to watch. See , he should have asked my hubby !

Haha! Thats classic... He should have seized a perfect opportunity to make a small profit for the church! Lol

I went to my best mates wedding last week and she almost had a 'youve been framed moment' courtesy of my 18 month old son.
My partner had to remove him from the room during the service as he was getting to be a handful but at the end of the service whilst the happy couple were posing for pics and signing the register my son toddled back in and shouted 'marry me'!! He says it all the time because of a song my mum sings to him and he'd been saying it to the bride before the wedding and getting a lot of laughs from guests so obviously he wanted more attention lol

Wow enigma, 3 stars for you ***

Are they still friends by any chance? I bet there is not much chance of him beig godfather to their children.

At my cousin Rachel's wedding when the vicar said "If any of you know cause, or just impediment, why these two persons should not be joined ... let him now speak, or else hereafter for ever hold his peace" the groom's bother shouted "'He's gay".

He wasn't and wedding went ahead after a few blushes from bride, groom and vicar.

[redcrx]

OMG drchasuble, thats brilliant. I cant imagine anyone I know having the nerve to do something like that, it could have ruined the wedding!

I married a Catholic and did the same course - They are hillarious aren't they!

We'd been living together for a year but a number had not actually even slept together let alone lived together!

When they did the bit about making a list of who would be doing what household chores - war started breaking out in a few areas!

I had promissed to be good and keep my notoriously lippy trap shut but when the "natural contraceptive" woman told us all that "the rhythm method is as scientifically reliable as the pill" I sweetly enquired why families were so large in traditional Catholic countries like Ireland and Italy.

The priest sitting on the side nearly wet himself trying to keep a straight face but I don't think she was too amused!

[enigma]

Bizarrely enough Spurslady , yes , they are still best friends although I believe that he keeps his wife on a very tight reign these days ! It was certainly a memorable wedding speech that's for sure - for all the wrong reasons ! It was the talk of the town for long enough. Not sure if he would be a suitable candidate for Godparent. He was given an important job before and look what he did there ! I've never seen so many people cough and shuffle about at a wedding. Excruciating.

Hi Red, that sort of thing is usually par for the course where our family is involved.
Afterwards they had a karaoke reception and the groom sang "I will always love you" really badly to the bride. We all sat there wincing and waiting for him to start laughing and say it was a joke but he was totally serious and did the whole song. When he finished there was a beat before people started aaplauding because we were all too gobsmacked.
