Or where someone stood up and objected to the marriage.

I'd pay for tickets to be at one of those.

Every wedding I've been to has been 100% normal.

Not 'been to' but a girl I dated had been left standing at the altar by her childhood sweetheart.

To make matters worse, she went on a girls holiday a couple of years later and met the bastard and his wife on their honeymoon.

By all accounts she did the decent thing, offered congratulations and bought them a decent bottle.

When the priest/vicar does the legal bit at the beginning asking "should anyone know of any legal reason why these two shouldn't get married". Would love it if someone shouted out a funny answer, lol

Not a jilting or anything but my wedding was slightly unusual in that it was a double wedding. And had a moment of comedy when the hoop from my netted underskirt thingie made an escape bid when I was sat down signing the register book, my bridesmaids were trying to pull it the rest of the way out and hide it somewhere with no-one noticing

I haven't been to a wedding that this has happened. I don't think I'd like to witness it either, would make me feel uncomfortable.

You are standing by the alter waiting for the bride. She walks down the aisle. Just as things are about to start. You find out for the first time that moment she used to be a man. You saying that wouldn't make you think for a second whether you want to go through with it? Even if you are ok with the idea. That person has still lied to you since you met.

If the first time you discover your 'bride' is a man is at the altar, I suggest that's the least of your problems.

No they had not lied, a woman is a woman, transgender or otherwise. Here is yet another well presented argument for the need to separate TS and TV on this site. Wrong thread, I know...

A month before my wedding whilst getting my suit fitted I got cold feet, walked out of Moss Bros and into a travel agent and booked 2 week in Ibiza flying that night. My best man who was with me had to get in touch with my fiancé and explain what that I'd gone off

Not proud of what I did, but rather before than on the day

This happens at a family wedding many years ago, and when the vicar asked if any one no of any legal reason his brother in law shouted HARROLD in the voice from steptoe and son, and had the place in uproar

My husbands friend, a right joker said he would stand up and say I was really a man and his gay lover!

He was one of the grooms men and in our wedding video you can see at that point in the proceedings my husband and I turn to look at him and smile!

MAMOBA, miles and miles of bugger all (Aberdeenshire)

was at a very large wedding once - went ahead as planned, until the speeches. the groom walked round and placed an a4 envelope on each table and then started to tell people to open the envelopes - inside were pictures of the bride and best man in various "more than friends" poses. Bride ran out of the room, best man got a punch in the gob, and groom invited everyone to stay and help drown his sorrows. Have to say, it was actually a great night and the groom said one of the best of his life. (Oh and her parents had paid for most of it - wealthy family... her dad stayed but her mum went off in floods of tears)

We feel weddings are all about fun laughter etc,

Would feel bad for the person who got dumped at the alter, but think evreyone would have a giggle at the reception

When we got married it was planned by the inlaws for us, we wanted queen I want to brake free as the song walking out of the church just for the giggle but we never got it so we basicly ran out of church to the reception, instead

I witnessed this at a wedding reception about 25 years ago.

It was a "high society" wedding, with the daughter of a Lord Lieutenant getting married to a Captain from some military family. The guest list was a veritable "Who's Who" from the aristocracy, military service personnel, and the upper echelons of well to do families. Everyone thought the Groom, dressed in his best uniform was a bit nervous, but that was to be expected on that day!

It came to the speeches. The Bride's father said did his, satisfied that all had gone well, as he'd paid for the entire Reception - it had cost him a fortune!

Then the Groom stood up, but after the usual Thank You messages, then announced the Honeymoon details, all of it being 5-star hotels, luxury travel etc. He then passed an envelope down the Top Table to the Best Man, and asked him top open it and read out the names on the tickets inside.

The Best Man opened the envelope, and looked at the tickets but said nothing, just stood there sweating. But the guests were impatient and egged him to say the names.... It was the Groom who said.. "the names on the tickets are those fo the Bride and the Best Man. Since he has shagged her more times than me over the past year, he may as well go away with her. Here are the pics to prove it, taken by the Private Investigator I hired!" at which point he threw out a number of envelopes onto the tables of the, by now, stunned guests.

He then raised his glass of Champagne and said "Cheers, they deserve one another!" and left the room and out of the hotel, never to be seen again!!

The silence was deafening! Then the Bride's father collapsed in his seat, with a suspected a heart attack, and the Best Man's wife had to be dragged off her husband, as she attempted to stab him with the Cake knife!!

No wonder the Groom appeared nervous, but he had inflicted so much "shame" on the Bride AND her family name too! I heard later that the groom won his divorce a year after!

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

I wanted to go to one wedding and say it. I resisted the urge. They divorced three years later.

My cousin tried to jilt his wife to be almost at the alter. He was really late as he didn't want to marry her and had been going through with it because everyone else was keen on the wedding. Our aunt persuaded him to go through with it. He then spent the first four years having affairs. They're still together over 20 years later. I don't know if he stopped having affairs but I suspect that is the case as he doesn't travel as much anymore.

A cousin on the other side of the family had a very expensive wedding. Her dress was £10k on it's own (and bloody awful). The man she was marrying was the d*unk with the lads every night type. The wedding went well however at the reception he picked a fight with my uncle and there were fisticuffs before the cake was cut. The marriage last about 9 months and ended when their honeymoon baby arrived.

My niece (by marriage) decided to run away with the best man the night of her wedding despite only having met him the day before!! It hit the headlines of a certain rag that no longer exist and she did the chat shows and thought it was funny. Personally I felt sorry for the kids mixed up in the middle seeing their dad upset and having a new 'daddy' move in instead
