“When she went alone on her honeymoon because she booked a trip to the Caribbean despite her newlywed husband having a severe sun allergy.

They separated half a year after the wedding, and my friend, the bride, told me that the marriage had been a way to prolong the relationship despite both of them knowing that it was already over some time before they got married. Kinda like a couple gets a baby to save a marriage. It really was just sad because they were a nice couple, but they stayed friends after separating.” – Short_Perspective72

They are now divorced.” – Actuaryba

“The groom took the stupid cake thing to an extreme. The bride had given him his bite and mushed a little on his chin or nose. He then took a piece and MASHED it into her face so hard that I was expecting her to end up with a bloody nose. Cake and frosting got up her nose, in her eyes, down the front of her dress, etc.

The bride had to go get cleaned up, had her makeup redone, and was ugly-crying within an hour of saying, “I do.” He didn’t give a f**k.” – erik_working

So we’re trying to be reassuring and telling him it’s natural to second guess such a bit decision, to which he replies, “No, I mean, I think I’m gay.” I had them both on Facebook; the drama the next week was mesmerizing to watch unfold.” – the_heff
