I was 4 or 5 when I saw pictures of people mashing the cake in their SO's face during the cake feeding ceremony, and I asked my mom why people would do that. She said "to be funny" and I knew at that moment that I would never be okay with someone doing that to me.
I never understood this mashing the cake into their face thing. On my older sister's wedding the groom (my brother-in-law now) gently smeared a little cream from the cake next to her mouth as if it was a leftover after she ate from the cake - it was kind of funny and sweet as she get it with her thumb at ate it (then smiled widely and nodded that it was good). No harm to anything. This is the most - I think - is acceptable.
I think it's dumb as hell, considering when someone goes all in for the smash, it gets everywhere, and now there's a ruined (likely expensive) makeup job, ruined (likely expensive) hairstyle, and have fun trying to get the bits of frosting and crap off the bride's very expensive dress (and hope it won't make a stain). The worst ones are the guys who are egged on by their idiot friends to do it, even after the bride said no way, and the guys are all laughing. Never occurs to them that the rest of the room usually isn't til the bride storms out and they get the evil eye. Wanting to avoid crap like this is a big reason why I'd never wanna do a traditional wedding in front of oodles of people.
I never understood it either: It’s all a waste of cake in my opinion. Just feed it to each other like normal people, or maybe a dollop of icing on the nose.
Props to that badass priest! That groom was showing some serious red flags and there's no doubt the bride almost ended up in an abusive marriage, perhaps even a deadly one!
It's fortunate that he did this at the wedding, in a way. Most abusers are smart of enough to wait until after the wedding, and work up to it gradually. By the time it's really bad, their partner can be wholly demoralized and isolated from support.
Yep, and honestly if one is the type to really be on board with the cake smashing and the other isn't it really sounds like a case of incompatible senses of humor. It sounds like a small thing but I disagree. I wouldn't want to be with someone I had to constantly feel I was tiptoeing around when it comes to joking around.
It's not just disrespectful, it can actually be dangerous; some bakeries will leave wooden supports inside the cake for stability, and those can cause serious injury if you shove your face into a cake and hit one.
One of my best friends is Muslim and I love the stories about when they are presented men for them to marry by her family. My favourite was when their paternal grandma pressured her dad to ask her and her sister if one of them were interested in marrying a 30-something year old dude when my friend and her sister were still in their early to mid 20s. Her dad was so incredibly uncomfortable and my friend said no, which relieved him but the sister, who is a bit of a troll, decided to torture her dad by acting interested and asking a bunch of questions about the guy before she too said no and capped it off with the line: he's way too young for me.
20:31- wow, MAD respect for that priest. He single-handedly saved that poor woman from a horrifically abusive marriage and possibly eventually being murdered by that monster. Way to go him! I'm so glad she got away from that psycho.
My friend went through her wedding and reception and everyone was there. When the Pastor asked them for the marriage certificate for them all to sign, they told him they didn't know they had to go get a license or anything. They decided they would get married "officially" later. I don't think they bothered to make it official and broke up after a couple of years.
My mother and father....my mom had the HUGEST RED FLAG IN EXISTANCE. He broke her orbital bone the night before the wedding. She still married him. She got courage to run when I was a infant and he shook me by my arm and threw me across the room like a rag doll. I was 2 months old at the time.

I was so ready for the half hour break story to involve infidelity, but it turned out surprisingly wholesome. I hope they have a very long life together.
The groom had a heart attack on the alter, was really similar to what happened to a Family friend. She had a major heart attack in November and he drove her 3 hour back to the local hospital that had sent her 3 hours away because they didn't have the facilities to treat a major heart properly. On the way he stopped at the court house and they got married. It was his idea as he needed to be married or related to her in some way to be able to stay with her in the hospital. They've been friends for decades, both WWII vets, and have now been happily married for almost 20 years this December. Happy ending for them. She had an ex husband who got her black out drunk and made her sign marriage papers (late 1950s). She was stuck with him for 2 year before she got him blackout drunk and signed divorce.paper. she took him for literally everything he had. He was abusive. The whole time they were together she has still in the marine but he was out every night with different woman and left her at home with a newborn and his 4 kids from other relationships. It goes on and on. Ask and I'll share.
@robloxguy453 basically, she got divorced from her high school sweetheart. They had know each other since they were kids and married young. So when they split it was mutual and they still talked everyday (they had 5 kids) and saw each other often, they just didn't want to be married to each other anymore. She was single for a year, didn't want to date anyone, and if I remember right, her 2nd husband (we'll call him dumbf for obvious reasons) was basically stalking her. He saw her at a coffee shop type place and wouldn't leave her alone. She said she got a creepy vibe off him and one night she went out for drinks with some of her marine buddies, got completely wasted and woke up the next morning in a house she didn't recognize. Dumbf had got her black out drunk and made her sign marriage papers. She was stuck with him for two years in which time he beat her repeatedly. Dumbf had 4 kids from other relationships (oldest was 11, youngest was 2). Saddest part was the oldest said their mom's were there one day and then poof vanished off the face of the earth. She decided that when she left she would take the kids with her (she has a very big heart and felt really bad for those kids) and when she did divorce him she did the same thing to him that he had done to her. Which apparently wasn't that hard as he was a heavy drinker. She took him for every penny he had. Dude basically ended up with just the clothes on his back. Once the divorce was finalized she sold Everything and I mean everything. Her marines helped her clear out the house and took what they wanted (her now husband took dumbf's car and motorcycle and totaled both in a week, not his fault took a turn too fast in the rain on the bike and got into a major fender bender, he was ok thankfully) and she went back to her first husband. He had been her rock through everything and she married him again. She had another drunken marriage in between but that ended mutually. Weirdest bit about dumbf is that the day after the divorce was finalized he showed up to "talk" (yeah right) but she had her marine buddies with her and she told him to leave her alone and never come back. Next day he disappeared. I don't think anyone has seen him since. At least she never saw him again. Good thing too, she had two small kids from him and didn't want them around him. Can't say I blame her. XD
😧 Btw, wasn’t it possible for her to get a divorce from him before that 2 years since she was drugged? Just wondering cause I don’t know much about the laws of that time period. I feel like dumbf could’ve been arrested for what he had done.
@@Loaves_of_Cat he should have. I don't know kw why he wasn't. She doesn't like to talk much about him. I think they didn't get a divorce because she was had a baby and was serving in the military. No one would really believe a female that she was assaulted or drugged. Sadly still happening today. If I remember the laws right, and I could be wrong, is if a woman is pregnant or gets pregnant before or shortly after marriage, the divorce is put on hold until after the baby comes. So that was probably a hold up, the other being she wasn't there, she was in Vietnam, serving.
@@Loaves_of_Cat Technically she could have filed for an annulment, but that would make it so the marriage never happened, and like the commenter said, she wanted to take the kids with her. So she conned him into divorce papers. Also, I think this was the fifties and an annulment may have been harder to get. In the end, she could have annulled due to being drugged and pressed charges and volunteered to take the kids after proving further abuse. But IDK
1:20 "Sounds like they were Indian" Yeah😭 I'm 16 and my grandmother tells me that I need to "focus more on my physical features, rather than studying because I'm of an age to marry" 😭 Help me pls
Im wondering why the mom was so adamant about defending her daughter banging an older bartender while engaged to another man around her age? Did she do the same thing or was in a similar situation, because that is fucked up.
I can comment on this one. I didn't go to the wedding but did go to the evening reception. My friend married a girl who could hardly speak any English. They got married and the bride disappeared with a bloke that she told my friend was her brother. She turns up six hours later to the evening do with said brother in tow. My friend finds out 3 days later that this brother was actually her boyfriend and she'd only married my friend to be able to stay in Britain and to make it easier for her boyfriend to stay which is why she'd said that he was her brother. The marriage was annulled and her and her boyfriend were deported about 6mths later.
It was my aunts wedding, she learned her fiancé was cheating on her 3 hours before the ceremony was gonna start. She found out by a dm that the fiancé’s side piece sent to my aunt. They called off the wedding but we still had the party cause everything was set up. It was a weird Halloween un-wedding but at least I got a story and a dress out of it
A wedding my mom did as a minister had the groom lightly smash a slice of cake into the bride's face, bride's face turns red, she slaps him hard enough to leave a mark in front of everybody and storms off. Groom calls the police and has her arrested and charged with assault. Bride punches a cop and is promptly maced and given an assaulting-an-officer charge. Bride's family leaves, completely embarrassed. Wedding reception promptly turns into divorce party. Would-be groom is now happily married to someone else.
My uncle's second wedding. His wife to be got so drunk she tripped in the mud with her white heals. They were at a yacht club had the service on the dock she ended up falling in the water. I was like 12 yrs old. It was ducking funny.
Listening to this whole getting my hair and makeup done at my little sister’s wedding (don’t worry they’re a very sweet and close couple and everything is finally done and paid for so I don’t think I’ll be updating this with a story 🤣) UPDATE: It went so fucking well! They’re currently on their honeymoon 💕
The one with the Canadians...I'm pretty sure most States require you to obtain a license before the wedding, sign after, then file to get your certificate. Maybe that's why they had issues?
I know a broom who had a car accident (thankfully he only broke a leg) so he couldn’t come to his wedding. The food was donated to a local shelter and the flowers to a nursing home and they married later.
Fortunately, I was in another part of the room at the time but I attended a wedding where the groom's mother blew people from under the table once. Fortunately there weren't any fist fights or anything, the groom's mother was single, having divorced her husband years earlier and evidently (as far as we know) she only blew single men at the reception. If she had blew a married man from the bride's side of the family it likely would have erupted into a brawl as the women on that side of the family are well versed in fighting and all fight like men.
On the way to the wedding ceremony, my brother's future father-in-law asked the bride to be if she had gotten her previous marriage annulled. She thought about it and said, "I don't think so..." The reception was held, but not the ceremony. My son waited until the last minute to get the marriage license ... and needed his birth certificate which no one could find. So, the ceremony and reception happened without the marriage license. The legal wedding was several months later.
16:24 "The mother of the bride sided with the daughter and the father of the bride sided with the groom. A month later the brides parents filed for divorce after 25 years of marriage over the incident." Your daughter cheats on her fiancé for months & you're just okay with that? Apparently the mother of the bride had no qualms about cheating and it took the father 25 years to figure that out. Better late than never I suppose.
No, but I almost did. A few years ago, one of my tennis partners was engaged and invited me to his wedding. Literally a week before its supposed to happen, he calls it off. No idea why.
Third party story. One of my cousins waa supposed to go to a wedding but the bride and groom got COVID a few days earlier so that wedding didn't happen. Stupid ass corona!
I think that happened a lot. Or they canceled due to an increase in cases. That happened to some friends of mine. I hope your cousin's friends fully recovered.
Ive got one, but they got married. It was after the wedding. My Aunt Casey and Uncle James got married a few years back, it was perfect. Though we noticed that my aunt seemed uncomfy and would stand in strange positions, which we originally thought was because the dress was rubbing somewhere. Well we get back to our cabin and my mom tells her to take a hot bubble bath, which she does. But then 15 mins in she starts yelling, she cant get up out the tub, she said it felt like she was being stabbed. Mom took her to the closest hospital, we found out her Gallbladder ruptured. She had to get it removed, and now she just eats popcorn. Uncle James didnt really do anything, he was outside smoking. I wasnt allowed to help.
After my 2nd failed engagement, I decided to HELL with it, I will NEVER get married, I do not care to be "murdered" again. My view now is, it's a pre-arranged funeral.
Does throwing away the plans and eloping count? My parents did it that way. Mom is from Vegas and dad is from L.A. and they met in college. Once they decided to get married, they went in a series of dates to plan out their future. Wedding stuff and who is doing what to what food items will they have in the fridge. At one point, they’re like “Do we really need a wedding and party?” I think it was due to the guest list. So they decided to elope. The thing is, both sets of parents were IN town and I think both grandparents were in town too. My parents just decided to elope and not tell anyone until after. My grandpa(mom’s dad) boosted that Sunday at church that he gained $10,000. A number of them used the same investor guy/group and had the same investments. He explained the situation as everyone questioned how he made that much. I do believe they had a party later to celebrate though.
The tradition of smashing the cake in the bride's face dates back to the ancient Greeks. You had to do it as hard as possible to prove your dominance over your bride and then the in-laws had to eat the leftover cake off the floor. With an origin like that, I'm not surprised that couples who do it end up separating.
Yes, I was doing catering job and actualy I was helping to the family of the bride to decorate the church. They didn't have wedding planer? It's not comon in my country. And during the ceremony in church, and you gotta be on religious service, sermon and all, a man barged in yelling something about bride and groom being cousins. Turns out the groom's mom was cheating on her husband with the brides uncle. They're cousins. They also found out she destroyed brides aunts life (brides fathers sister) by separating her from her only one and true love, whom she got pregnant too. The brides aunt raised her child alone because of the groom's mothers lies and horible things she had done. The father of the brides aunts child never found out that he had a child. Everybody started yelling at the groom's mother. Her son(the groom) wanted to kill her as soon as she gets of the church. Because he wouldn't kill her in church. She yelled that it was all brides aunts fault because her childs father wouldnt want any woman but the brides aunt. And she deserved him more. Also she said her husband is an idiot with big tits(he doesn't have tits) and he is not good for her so she had to cheat. It's her right. Her son said:"I almost maried my cousin you bitch!" She aid:"oh, stop with the crap! You're not important here, I am! I was supose to be a Lady who lives in US. But I had to live here in a crapy vilage!" So she saw no problem in her actions. But the bigger circus started when someone at the wedding actualy called the man who was the father of the brides aunts child,her son's father to be exact. And told him everything. And he was in a visit in a nearby town for one festival-Saint that they celebrate. Big deal in this region. He was shocked. He came there and that's when the shit realy hit the fen. If He didn't kill the groom's mother that time then I guess he never will but the brides aunt, her son and he's sons father sued the groom's mom. Her husband divorced her, the brides uncle divorced his wife. The brides aunt told to the groom's mom:"you patetic bitch!I loved this man when I was young, no matter what, I gave birth and raised our son, I still love him and I will allways love him! And I have a son, family, friends and now he knows and you are all alone now!" The groom's mom said:"I was supose to be the best one, not you! I was supose to be with him!" The brides aunts ex (her sons father) said :"you're crazy! Now listen, I would never, ever be with you! Not even if we were the only people in the world! I left the country and went to live in US because you told me that my girfriend got maried to another man! See you in court, bitch!" then he left with his son and brides aunt. That was such a circus. I was like:" did this now happen for real? "We then had to call the ambulance for the priest. The man was in shock. There was no wedding, the money for food, decorations, music and all was wasted. They did share the food to cousins and neighbours, the band returned the money, some people sent gifts before the wedding so they returned them. But the deposit for the venue, money for the flowers, for some ice sculptures(that the groom's mother requested) went to a waste . Big, big shit all in Al I did get paid for that day of work
@@wingwhacker we were all shocked. I thought it only happens in soap opera. Never before I couldn't dream that someone would realy got through such hard work and put such effort in destroying other peoples lives. Emagine what could she do in buisnes if she worked that hard. I was shocked
The wedding of a friend of my cousin, whom I also semi-knew. Groom got busted for possession of ecstasy, and not a small amount either. Yeah, that one didn't happen.
Okay man, marry a dude that's doing drugs before walking down the aisle with you, that's your own dumbass adult decision, but then to choose to have a child with this person and drag that poor little innocent baby into that mess?! I hope she either got rid of the dude, dude got help, or that baby got taken away.
My wife and I got invited to one of her best childhood friends wedding. We drove about 3 1/2 hours and checked into a hotel on a Saturday. Helped do some of the prep work. Setting up tables, etc. The wedding was the next morning. The bride and groom were staying in the same hotel as us a few doors down. We randomly received a knock on the door at 2am. But never answered it because we weren’t sure if that was at our door or not. So we just went back to sleep. We again received a knock at the door 2 hours later around 4 am. We opened the door and found the bride beaten to a pulp. Broken nose. Eyes swollen. Blood everywhere. Turns out the groom beat the crap out of her that night and poor woman still wanted to go through with the wedding but decided not to because she was so badly beaten. Her face was almost unrecognizable. Groom fled. Got arrested. His parents had money and it was a small town. So he got out of jail pretty fast. Grooms parents tried to blame the bride on getting beaten the way she did. He was an elementary school teacher. And once news spread he lost his job.
Not me, but my mother in law goes to a wedding and relays this story... About 2 hours into the reception the groom notices he hasn't seen the bride in a while. Starts looking around for her and can't find her. He decides to go check the bridal suite. Opens the door and sees his new wife of 2+ hours doinking HIS BROTHER the best man. Reception ended soon thereafter and so did the marriage....true story...
Yeah. Smashing the cake into your new spouse's face- ESPECIALLY if they've already specifically told you not to do that- is an extreme level of disrespect and merits instant annulment imo. If they can't respect you even that far, how are they going to respect you in anything else? Financial decisions? Childcare disagreements? Good f*ing luck! Especially if it's done to the bride, who's usually spent a pretty penny on hair, makeup, and dress, she's put a lot of time and expense into her appearance, she's probably been looking forward to this day for years, and then the guy just goes and treats it like garbage for a laugh. Or I hope it's supposed to be funny. It isn't, but it's got to have SOME reason or why would people even do it in the first place? But of course it's not okay for the bride to do it to the groom either. Spouses should be able to trust each other as much as if not above everyone else. I'm divorced and all, I've seen countless bad marriages, but I still have this dream that it has to work out for some people, even if it's rare. Our marriage may not have worked out due to various factors, but I never publicly disrespected my ex like that, nor did he ever do anything like that to me. We're still friends, actually. If I ever do get married again, even if I'm a bit more jaded and bit less "our love will last for eternity!" naive, I'd still never smash cake in the face of this hypothetical guy. It's just not right. I feel like I should say that I myself didn't pay to have my hair or makeup done. Our major expenses were just renting the venue, hiring catering, flowers, and cake (all from HyVee, we got a discount for getting all three at the same place) and decorating the place. My dress was free, or close to- I bought the pattern on sale and a friend made it as her gift to me. I'd still have it except somehow at some point one of the cats peed on it (I know exactly which one, btw, it's always the same one who does that.) and I couldn't get the smell out. (I bought my shoes on sale too, but the only style I liked wasn't in my size- please learn from my mistake. Wedding shoes 2 sizes too small will make you bleed and not be fun at all.) I actually totally forgot about my hair and makeup. I'd slept on the maid of honor's floor so we could all get ready together to save time, but that meant that I didn't sleep well, and between being woken up just in time and being excited I forgot about hair and makeup, which I usually never do anyway so it wasn't part of my normal routine. So for me it wouldn't be about the hair and makeup nonsense, but simply a respect thing. Other women might have different priorities, though.
i didnt smash the wifes face in the cake. i did take a finger full of frosting and painted her face with it. she looked me smiled and did the same to me.
No one is going to care about this but wtf is with the Ash(ley)’s today for me. This morning my sister talked about an Ashley she hates, this afternoon my brother asked a different Ashley to his homecoming, I got tattooed by a woman named Ashley today, and there’s an Ashley in the story at 11:30 😟 even weirder, you want to know where I am right now? A place called Ashton. And the kid in the house behind mine is also named Ashton and he rolled over my foot with his tricycle today. I am *incredibly* stoned right now
WTF.... They both drank and partied on their separate bachelor and bachelorette parties that they both overslept, missed the wedding, shrugged it off, then just decided to marry some other time...? .... Yeah, sounds like they are the perfect soulmates.... I hope they don't have children or if they do the child is placed with a loving and caring family member.... because it sounds like those two shouldn't be raising any children... probably shouldn't have pets either.
What is this "Family doesn't approve" shit? No, that's his decision because it's his life. Only reason it would be okay is if the groom was unable or something.
Why can't some people just stick to the question? Instead of adding bs that has nothing to do with the question!😵😡😫. Plus your computer voice needs to be reprogrammed to pronounce "j" instead of "g" when saying jeans not geans and other words. Wake up!
Maybe I just have a childish sense of humor, but the text-to-speech snafus are part of the charm for me! Sometimes they're annoying, sometimes getting slapped in the ears with "mak-ee-oop" instead of "makeup" is the exact bit of levity a story needs.

Honestly red flags are warnings, not sure the term really does justice there.
Imo anyone who's getting married should have a discussion about whether or not they're ok with Cake smashing, and then stick to the answer.

They've been friends for decades, both WWII vets, and have now been happily married for almost 20 years this December. Happy ending for them.
She had an ex husband who got her black out drunk and made her sign marriage papers (late 1950s). She was stuck with him for 2 year before she got him blackout drunk and signed divorce.paper. she took him for literally everything he had. He was abusive. The whole time they were together she has still in the marine but he was out every night with different woman and left her at home with a newborn and his 4 kids from other relationships. It goes on and on. Ask and I'll share.
@robloxguy453 basically, she got divorced from her high school sweetheart. They had know each other since they were kids and married young. So when they split it was mutual and they still talked everyday (they had 5 kids) and saw each other often, they just didn't want to be married to each other anymore. She was single for a year, didn't want to date anyone, and if I remember right, her 2nd husband (we'll call him dumbf for obvious reasons) was basically stalking her. He saw her at a coffee shop type place and wouldn't leave her alone. She said she got a creepy vibe off him and one night she went out for drinks with some of her marine buddies, got completely wasted and woke up the next morning in a house she didn't recognize. Dumbf had got her black out drunk and made her sign marriage papers. She was stuck with him for two years in which time he beat her repeatedly. Dumbf had 4 kids from other relationships (oldest was 11, youngest was 2). Saddest part was the oldest said their mom's were there one day and then poof vanished off the face of the earth. She decided that when she left she would take the kids with her (she has a very big heart and felt really bad for those kids) and when she did divorce him she did the same thing to him that he had done to her. Which apparently wasn't that hard as he was a heavy drinker. She took him for every penny he had. Dude basically ended up with just the clothes on his back. Once the divorce was finalized she sold Everything and I mean everything. Her marines helped her clear out the house and took what they wanted (her now husband took dumbf's car and motorcycle and totaled both in a week, not his fault took a turn too fast in the rain on the bike and got into a major fender bender, he was ok thankfully) and she went back to her first husband. He had been her rock through everything and she married him again. She had another drunken marriage in between but that ended mutually. Weirdest bit about dumbf is that the day after the divorce was finalized he showed up to "talk" (yeah right) but she had her marine buddies with her and she told him to leave her alone and never come back. Next day he disappeared. I don't think anyone has seen him since. At least she never saw him again. Good thing too, she had two small kids from him and didn't want them around him. Can't say I blame her. XD
@robloxguy453 no prob XD
😧
Btw, wasn’t it possible for her to get a divorce from him before that 2 years since she was drugged? Just wondering cause I don’t know much about the laws of that time period. I feel like dumbf could’ve been arrested for what he had done.
@@Loaves_of_Cat he should have. I don't know kw why he wasn't. She doesn't like to talk much about him. I think they didn't get a divorce because she was had a baby and was serving in the military. No one would really believe a female that she was assaulted or drugged. Sadly still happening today. If I remember the laws right, and I could be wrong, is if a woman is pregnant or gets pregnant before or shortly after marriage, the divorce is put on hold until after the baby comes. So that was probably a hold up, the other being she wasn't there, she was in Vietnam, serving.
@@Loaves_of_Cat Technically she could have filed for an annulment, but that would make it so the marriage never happened, and like the commenter said, she wanted to take the kids with her. So she conned him into divorce papers. Also, I think this was the fifties and an annulment may have been harder to get. In the end, she could have annulled due to being drugged and pressed charges and volunteered to take the kids after proving further abuse. But IDK
20:40 i have never been more approving of a priest till this moment
I'll never understand how people think they can explain their way out when caught cheating on their wedding day/in general.
They’re banking on their partner having no self-respect.

Holy shit... A wedding that destroys their and their parent's marriage, that is wild...
Im wondering why the mom was so adamant about defending her daughter banging an older bartender while engaged to another man around her age? Did she do the same thing or was in a similar situation, because that is fucked up.
A lot of parents believe their kids can do no wrong and will ignore all evidence to the contrary.
Like mother, like daughter definitely.
I can comment on this one. I didn't go to the wedding but did go to the evening reception. My friend married a girl who could hardly speak any English. They got married and the bride disappeared with a bloke that she told my friend was her brother. She turns up six hours later to the evening do with said brother in tow. My friend finds out 3 days later that this brother was actually her boyfriend and she'd only married my friend to be able to stay in Britain and to make it easier for her boyfriend to stay which is why she'd said that he was her brother. The marriage was annulled and her and her boyfriend were deported about 6mths later.
Serves them both right. It’s disgusting to trick someone into marriage like that.
It was my aunts wedding, she learned her fiancé was cheating on her 3 hours before the ceremony was gonna start. She found out by a dm that the fiancé’s side piece sent to my aunt. They called off the wedding but we still had the party cause everything was set up. It was a weird Halloween un-wedding but at least I got a story and a dress out of it
"The groom thought it would be funny to push the bride into the pool"
Narrator - "But it turns out. . . . . . .it wasn't"
A wedding my mom did as a minister had the groom lightly smash a slice of cake into the bride's face, bride's face turns red, she slaps him hard enough to leave a mark in front of everybody and storms off. Groom calls the police and has her arrested and charged with assault. Bride punches a cop and is promptly maced and given an assaulting-an-officer charge. Bride's family leaves, completely embarrassed. Wedding reception promptly turns into divorce party.
Would-be groom is now happily married to someone else.
Did the bride state she didn't want to have cake smashed into her face? I feel that detail is very important.....
he assaulted her first
@@DrawciaGleam02 I asked my mom that and she didn't know.
@@moonchild708 dude its cake, he didnt hurt anything but her over inflated ego
@@gothic_ace2037 I think it could still be considered assault, especially since the bride didn’t see it as a joke.
My uncle's second wedding. His wife to be got so drunk she tripped in the mud with her white heals. They were at a yacht club had the service on the dock she ended up falling in the water. I was like 12 yrs old. It was ducking funny.
So the reverend punched him the nose, saying "No more Mr nice guy."
No more Mr. Clean!
I can't even imagine screwing up your wedding so bad that the backlash causes your own parents to divorce.
25:51
Damn, that went from 0 to 100 real quick.
Thank god she and the driver survived.
Listening to this whole getting my hair and makeup done at my little sister’s wedding (don’t worry they’re a very sweet and close couple and everything is finally done and paid for so I don’t think I’ll be updating this with a story 🤣)
UPDATE: It went so fucking well! They’re currently on their honeymoon 💕
Turns out the wedding turned into a divorce party! And no one clapped.
Congratulations for your sister!
Congratulations to them 🥰
The stories involving a) the bride’s parents divorcing and b) the priest/audience brawl were insane-
The one with the Canadians...I'm pretty sure most States require you to obtain a license before the wedding, sign after, then file to get your certificate. Maybe that's why they had issues?
I know a broom who had a car accident (thankfully he only broke a leg) so he couldn’t come to his wedding. The food was donated to a local shelter and the flowers to a nursing home and they married later.
that priest single handedly changed my mind on priests
Fortunately, I was in another part of the room at the time but I attended a wedding where the groom's mother blew people from under the table once. Fortunately there weren't any fist fights or anything, the groom's mother was single, having divorced her husband years earlier and evidently (as far as we know) she only blew single men at the reception. If she had blew a married man from the bride's side of the family it likely would have erupted into a brawl as the women on that side of the family are well versed in fighting and all fight like men.
🤮
Still though, that’s absolutely disgusting.
On the way to the wedding ceremony, my brother's future father-in-law asked the bride to be if she had gotten her previous marriage annulled. She thought about it and said, "I don't think so..." The reception was held, but not the ceremony.
My son waited until the last minute to get the marriage license ... and needed his birth certificate which no one could find. So, the ceremony and reception happened without the marriage license. The legal wedding was several months later.
Just typical things people forget... car keys, wallet, reading glasses, getting an annulment 😅
5:38
That was really sad. I've had those moments, but I can't imagine having it ruin our big day :(
Good on Priest Punch.
Father Fists
Too many comments to go through, but that story about the two veterinarians getting killed by accident was really jarring/heartbreaking.
5:40 the most wholesome thing in this reading.
16:24 "The mother of the bride sided with the daughter and the father of the bride sided with the groom. A month later the brides parents filed for divorce after 25 years of marriage over the incident."
Your daughter cheats on her fiancé for months & you're just okay with that? Apparently the mother of the bride had no qualms about cheating and it took the father 25 years to figure that out. Better late than never I suppose.
I've never heard of a wedding being ruined from a lack of alcohol, but I've heard tons of stories of them being ruined by the presence of alcohol.
16:25 I'm glad there's a comparatively heartwarming story in all this drama
That crazy yandere psycho groom though! Good on that priest.
The Bengali inside me dies at the pronounciation of Calcutta/Kolkata
No, but I almost did. A few years ago, one of my tennis partners was engaged and invited me to his wedding. Literally a week before its supposed to happen, he calls it off. No idea why.
Third party story. One of my cousins waa supposed to go to a wedding but the bride and groom got COVID a few days earlier so that wedding didn't happen. Stupid ass corona!
Whoa. I hope the groom is okay now.
I think that happened a lot. Or they canceled due to an increase in cases. That happened to some friends of mine. I hope your cousin's friends fully recovered.
Ive got one, but they got married. It was after the wedding. My Aunt Casey and Uncle James got married a few years back, it was perfect. Though we noticed that my aunt seemed uncomfy and would stand in strange positions, which we originally thought was because the dress was rubbing somewhere. Well we get back to our cabin and my mom tells her to take a hot bubble bath, which she does. But then 15 mins in she starts yelling, she cant get up out the tub, she said it felt like she was being stabbed. Mom took her to the closest hospital, we found out her Gallbladder ruptured. She had to get it removed, and now she just eats popcorn.
Uncle James didnt really do anything, he was outside smoking. I wasnt allowed to help.
17:58 It had to have happened. A wedding with a 200% divorce rate.
The girl who fricked the 38 year old bartender, see the ending? Her mom sided with her. The apple don't fall far from the tree.
At every wedding the DJ should never mention the couple. And by DJ I mean "Spotify playlist" lol

12:32 Oh shit, callin' him out, kupo!
Went to my friend's sister's wedding, and her fiancee never showed up.
Dude at 23:25 is so heartbreaking
After my 2nd failed engagement, I decided to HELL with it, I will NEVER get married, I do not care to be "murdered" again. My view now is, it's a pre-arranged funeral.
Does throwing away the plans and eloping count? My parents did it that way. Mom is from Vegas and dad is from L.A. and they met in college. Once they decided to get married, they went in a series of dates to plan out their future. Wedding stuff and who is doing what to what food items will they have in the fridge. At one point, they’re like “Do we really need a wedding and party?” I think it was due to the guest list. So they decided to elope. The thing is, both sets of parents were IN town and I think both grandparents were in town too. My parents just decided to elope and not tell anyone until after. My grandpa(mom’s dad) boosted that Sunday at church that he gained $10,000. A number of them used the same investor guy/group and had the same investments. He explained the situation as everyone questioned how he made that much. I do believe they had a party later to celebrate though.
The tradition of smashing the cake in the bride's face dates back to the ancient Greeks. You had to do it as hard as possible to prove your dominance over your bride and then the in-laws had to eat the leftover cake off the floor. With an origin like that, I'm not surprised that couples who do it end up separating.
Ew
yikes
1:34 Uncle Saitama!
Yes, I was doing catering job and actualy I was helping to the family of the bride to decorate the church. They didn't have wedding planer? It's not comon in my country. And during the ceremony in church, and you gotta be on religious service, sermon and all, a man barged in yelling something about bride and groom being cousins. Turns out the groom's mom was cheating on her husband with the brides uncle. They're cousins. They also found out she destroyed brides aunts life (brides fathers sister) by separating her from her only one and true love, whom she got pregnant too. The brides aunt raised her child alone because of the groom's mothers lies and horible things she had done. The father of the brides aunts child never found out that he had a child. Everybody started yelling at the groom's mother. Her son(the groom) wanted to kill her as soon as she gets of the church. Because he wouldn't kill her in church. She yelled that it was all brides aunts fault because her childs father wouldnt want any woman but the brides aunt. And she deserved him more. Also she said her husband is an idiot with big tits(he doesn't have tits) and he is not good for her so she had to cheat. It's her right. Her son said:"I almost maried my cousin you bitch!" She aid:"oh, stop with the crap! You're not important here, I am! I was supose to be a Lady who lives in US. But I had to live here in a crapy vilage!" So she saw no problem in her actions. But the bigger circus started when someone at the wedding actualy called the man who was the father of the brides aunts child,her son's father to be exact. And told him everything. And he was in a visit in a nearby town for one festival-Saint that they celebrate. Big deal in this region. He was shocked. He came there and that's when the shit realy hit the fen. If He didn't kill the groom's mother that time then I guess he never will but the brides aunt, her son and he's sons father sued the groom's mom. Her husband divorced her, the brides uncle divorced his wife. The brides aunt told to the groom's mom:"you patetic bitch!I loved this man when I was young, no matter what, I gave birth and raised our son, I still love him and I will allways love him! And I have a son, family, friends and now he knows and you are all alone now!"
The groom's mom said:"I was supose to be the best one, not you! I was supose to be with him!"
The brides aunts ex (her sons father) said :"you're crazy! Now listen, I would never, ever be with you! Not even if we were the only people in the world! I left the country and went to live in US because you told me that my girfriend got maried to another man! See you in court, bitch!" then he left with his son and brides aunt. That was such a circus. I was like:" did this now happen for real? "We then had to call the ambulance for the priest. The man was in shock. There was no wedding, the money for food, decorations, music and all was wasted. They did share the food to cousins and neighbours, the band returned the money, some people sent gifts before the wedding so they returned them. But the deposit for the venue, money for the flowers, for some ice sculptures(that the groom's mother requested) went to a waste . Big, big shit all in Al I did get paid for that day of work
Jesus Christ!
That sounds like it came out of a soap opera! I can practically hear the musical stings as I read this!
@@wingwhacker we were all shocked. I thought it only happens in soap opera. Never before I couldn't dream that someone would realy got through such hard work and put such effort in destroying other peoples lives. Emagine what could she do in buisnes if she worked that hard. I was shocked
19:21 crazy ass story
The wedding of a friend of my cousin, whom I also semi-knew. Groom got busted for possession of ecstasy, and not a small amount either. Yeah, that one didn't happen.
Okay man, marry a dude that's doing drugs before walking down the aisle with you, that's your own dumbass adult decision, but then to choose to have a child with this person and drag that poor little innocent baby into that mess?! I hope she either got rid of the dude, dude got help, or that baby got taken away.
I'm not getting married anythime soon but I still want to hire that fist throwing priest, that guy is awesome
I don’t have any stories like these. I guess the few people in my life have made good choices when it comes to marriage.
My wife and I got invited to one of her best childhood friends wedding. We drove about 3 1/2 hours and checked into a hotel on a Saturday. Helped do some of the prep work. Setting up tables, etc. The wedding was the next morning. The bride and groom were staying in the same hotel as us a few doors down. We randomly received a knock on the door at 2am. But never answered it because we weren’t sure if that was at our door or not. So we just went back to sleep. We again received a knock at the door 2 hours later around 4 am. We opened the door and found the bride beaten to a pulp. Broken nose. Eyes swollen. Blood everywhere. Turns out the groom beat the crap out of her that night and poor woman still wanted to go through with the wedding but decided not to because she was so badly beaten. Her face was almost unrecognizable. Groom fled. Got arrested. His parents had money and it was a small town. So he got out of jail pretty fast. Grooms parents tried to blame the bride on getting beaten the way she did. He was an elementary school teacher. And once news spread he lost his job.
parents who let their kids abuse others are not to be trusted
This is why marriage is a gamble I won't take
Not me, but my mother in law goes to a wedding and relays this story... About 2 hours into the reception the groom notices he hasn't seen the bride in a while. Starts looking around for her and can't find her. He decides to go check the bridal suite. Opens the door and sees his new wife of 2+ hours doinking HIS BROTHER the best man. Reception ended soon thereafter and so did the marriage....true story...
Ok but why is this a little sad but funny...?
1st by the way!
Good guy priest
Damn those pesky denim geens
Thanks for the stories

Yeah. Smashing the cake into your new spouse's face- ESPECIALLY if they've already specifically told you not to do that- is an extreme level of disrespect and merits instant annulment imo. If they can't respect you even that far, how are they going to respect you in anything else? Financial decisions? Childcare disagreements? Good f*ing luck! Especially if it's done to the bride, who's usually spent a pretty penny on hair, makeup, and dress, she's put a lot of time and expense into her appearance, she's probably been looking forward to this day for years, and then the guy just goes and treats it like garbage for a laugh. Or I hope it's supposed to be funny. It isn't, but it's got to have SOME reason or why would people even do it in the first place? But of course it's not okay for the bride to do it to the groom either. Spouses should be able to trust each other as much as if not above everyone else. I'm divorced and all, I've seen countless bad marriages, but I still have this dream that it has to work out for some people, even if it's rare. Our marriage may not have worked out due to various factors, but I never publicly disrespected my ex like that, nor did he ever do anything like that to me. We're still friends, actually. If I ever do get married again, even if I'm a bit more jaded and bit less "our love will last for eternity!" naive, I'd still never smash cake in the face of this hypothetical guy. It's just not right.
I feel like I should say that I myself didn't pay to have my hair or makeup done. Our major expenses were just renting the venue, hiring catering, flowers, and cake (all from HyVee, we got a discount for getting all three at the same place) and decorating the place. My dress was free, or close to- I bought the pattern on sale and a friend made it as her gift to me. I'd still have it except somehow at some point one of the cats peed on it (I know exactly which one, btw, it's always the same one who does that.) and I couldn't get the smell out. (I bought my shoes on sale too, but the only style I liked wasn't in my size- please learn from my mistake. Wedding shoes 2 sizes too small will make you bleed and not be fun at all.) I actually totally forgot about my hair and makeup. I'd slept on the maid of honor's floor so we could all get ready together to save time, but that meant that I didn't sleep well, and between being woken up just in time and being excited I forgot about hair and makeup, which I usually never do anyway so it wasn't part of my normal routine. So for me it wouldn't be about the hair and makeup nonsense, but simply a respect thing. Other women might have different priorities, though.
i didnt smash the wifes face in the cake. i did take a finger full of frosting and painted her face with it. she looked me smiled and did the same to me.
No one is going to care about this but wtf is with the Ash(ley)’s today for me.
