Did any drama happen at your wedding?
Some of you already posted some drama at your weddings-- anyone else have someone start a fight, throw up, tell someone off, get caught smoking weed, or anything wild like that?
Married in 2008 - DD born in 2010 - EDD 6.15.2012!
Re: Did any drama happen at your wedding?
Yeah, hrm...see below.
Andplusalso, DJ's girlfriend came up to me and in a very snooty manner asked if I would tell my mother to please. stop. yelling at him.
Lady, my mother's hard of hearing. And I'm not telling her a darn thing.
ETA: In other words, what he thought was "yelling" was her "talking"...she doesn't realize how loud she talks.
Our Best Man's wife was caught by DH and Best Man making out with DH's cousin in a corner near the dance floor.
BM dragged her off the dance floor and they left. Apparently at home, she drunkenly beat the living hell out of him with objects like serving spoons and a cell phone charger (wth?!). He filed for divorce a week later.
Thankfully it was so late at night that most people cleared out before that hot mess happened, and those who were still around were too buzzed to notice.
The only drama we had was our DJ not showing up. He sent a replacement who was a complete moron. He would come up to me ask who was dancing with who for each dance (ie who was dancing the father daughter dance). He made me absolutely livid. After a bit one of my BMs finally went up to him and told him not to approach me for the rest of the evening and basically made him a playlist.
Oh...my.....gah....
Umm....

The night before the wedding, my brother got wasted at the hotel where both mine and DH's family were all staying.
We get back from the rehearsal dinner to find my brother, so drunk that he couldn't stand up, dressed up in women's clothes and make up, rolling through the lobby... where DH's family was having a drink since they'd all just arrived from their 13+ hour caravan drive from Chicago.
They were enjoying the entertainment, until MOH gand I walked into the lobby and my brother yelled (well, slurred), "It's Crystal- the bestest sister in the world, who tomorrow will ruin her life!" Mind you, this was the first time I'd met some of his family.
I was so humiliated that I went to my room with MOH. I was more pissed off at my mom because she encouraged him to dress up, laughed, etc so hw would put on a show.
He then came upstairs and rolled down the halls drunk, banging on doors trying to find me.
The hotel threatened to kick him out and bill me for damages (the rooms were blocked to me).
The next morning, he sobered up, apologized, and life went on. But man, I was pissed.
..................
Fast forward to the wedding... Several cars in the parking deck at the venue were broken into. Many of DH's family members' luggage was stolen, including his diabetic cousin... and her insulin. Yeah. Talk about a nightmare.
Once we get back inside from wasting an hour of our reception on that (dealing with cops, etc), I go back inside to cut the cake only to find my drunk uncle wearing chair sashes around his head, etc and frolicking around like a Disney movie.
Yes, this is why I don't drink, never have, and never will. Everyone on my mom's side is an alcoholic who has embarrassed me multiple times in my life.

Well I posted below that someone stole all of the bartender's tip money out of the tip jar at some point during the night. Money was also stolen out of 2 of my bridesmaids' purses that were in the room we got ready in before the wedding, in the house where no one was allowed inside besides the staff and the wedding party. I know that no one in our wedding party would ever steal money from anyone, so we think it was an employee. Everyone tried their best to keep it a secret from me until after the wedding, but I somehow found out. I was so livid!
One of our groomsmen's father had to be cut off by the bartender before the reception even started. We were still up taking our photos before we went to the reception when he stumbled up the hill and requested to take a photo with DH and I. Our GM was so embarrassed. But, his dad takes medication that apparently does not mix well with alcohol which is why is drunken behavior accelerated so quickly. It was quite interesting, because anytime our GM, his wife, or his mother went up to get something from the bartender she grilled them to make sure it wasn't for his father.
You win!
I agree with Lynsey!
Sorry I'm late to the party, but I do have a response for this one! Our wedding was SO MUCH fun, but there are also SO MANY things that happened that we wish we could have erased.
1. BIL got so drunk he tried to pee on my dad's car. In the midst of my dad trying to redirect him inside to pee he fell down a window well.
2. FIL was feeling so great by the end of the night he was trying to grind on me on the dance floor with his shirt unbutton, beer gut out in full view, with his sweet zipper tie (don't ask) unzipped hanging off neck. He also initiated a wrestling match with my DH's All American wrestling buddy on the middle of the dance floor towards the end of the evening.
3. GM kept buying shots for the whole wedding party, but because DH and I were busy my Nana kept taking DH's. As she was leaving the reception hall she fell down the stairs and broke her ankle.
4. After returning to the hotel we had to many people to ride up the elevator at once so when the second half stepped off one of the GM punched another GM in the face giving him a black eye. Because all the GM were staying in the same room it led to punched GM staying on the couch in part of our bedroom for 1/2 the night because of the argument that ensued.
