Top Ten Tuesday-Wedding Bloopers Revealed

8.24.2010


This weekend I had an awesome time attending my best friend's wedding. (A few weeks ago, I had the privilege of setting up and hosting her Bachelorette Party, too.) The wedding, just like my friend, was unique and far from typical--she had the reception at a Hibachi Restaurant and entertained all her guests by surprising us with a belly dance she had choreographed for her newlywed husband.

The day, as far as I know, seemed to go perfectly for her, but somewhere in the midst of downing Sake and watching this spectacular belly dance, I started to think about other weddings I attended (including my own) where things didn't always turn out as planned. In fact, now that I recall them, some of these weddings had some downright hilarious moments.

Here, in no particular order, are some of my favorite wedding bloopers of all times.

You know you're wedding is about to take an unexpected twist when...

10. DJ Sir Mix-O-Lot decides to hoard all the attention by scheduling his very own dance routine that he performs alone on the dance floor.

9. All the single ladies in the audience don't want to catch the bouquet, and in fact, they all run away from it when it comes hurling at them.

8. Your sleazy Uncle Ron catches the garter and decides he's going to put it on the poor, unsuspecting girl (who didn't want to catch the bouquet to begin with) by using his teeth.

7. Your wedding photographer turns into the Picture Nazi who's constantly yelling at the wedding party and the wedding guests to either "get in" or "out of” the picture NOW!

6. Your father-in-law is asked to do a toast, and he starts off by saying, "Well we never thought you'd amount to very much. In fact, we never thought you'd even make it through high school, and now look at you...you're getting married..."

5. The damn zipper clasp to your strapless wedding gown popped, and now you're holding up your wedding dress while desperately begging all your guests to look for a safety pin.

4. Your maid of honor, in her drunken state, decides to form a Conga Line with other drunken guests who are now swerving around tables, stepping on people's feet, and knocking off centerpieces.

3. Your Great Aunt Matilda forgets to take her high blood pressure medication and passes out on the dance floor, knocking down several of your guests in the process.

2. The chocolate fountain starts to burn and emits a foul odor, leading some of your guests to look around and wonder "who cut the cheese?"

1. The two groups of family members who don't get along have discovered each other's tables and are now mouthing full-blown insults to each other from across the room. You've got 911 on your speed dial if temperaments continue to flare.

And finally, I have one last bonus:

D.J. Sir Mix-O-Lot decides that performing his solo dance wasn't enough.  He now breaks out the Karaoke Machine to sing a little number just for the special couple.

Do you have any wedding bloopers to add to the list?  Oh, you have to share.

  2. Hmmm... I would add looking at your wedding photos only to realize that your boob is kind of showing in many of the pictures because your lace dress's slip didn't cover as well as you'd hoped. Or maybe I would add the party bus that's supposed to take the wedding party from church to reception getting lost and arriving 35 minutes after everyone else arrived. Sigh, it was still a gorgeous wedding!

  3. I would say when the catholic priest decides to go off on a tangent and ask the congregation how they make their marriage work for about a half an hour, making your ceremony last about 2 hours, thus making you miss your outdoor photo location because you will be late for the reception.

  4. WOW!!! What a list!!! At my wedding we had my mother-in-law decide she as going to get provocative lap dances from me infront of my children and my daughter says, "Mommy, Linda should not be letting those men do that to her, it is inappropriate."

  8. Oh my goodness this is so funny! I have seen the DJ start a dance routine at a wedding before. I am giggling while I write this. I jumped in (the dancer that I am) and started dancing with him. More laughs! My sister's wedding had a realy jerk for a photographer who would not take the pictures my sister was asking for and got a little nasty with the wedding party. This is really a funny post! Have I told you that I love your blog design?

  11. Very funny stuff, indeed, Annette! I love wedding bloopers...just a foretaste of how "imperfect" marriage is for the long haul. After my wedding and reception were said and done, my new Hubby and I hopped into the waiting limo and I took a close look at him for the first time. He was wearing his mother's corsage instead of his designated boutonniere. I had to wonder what his mother was wearing?
    I love your new look. -Eastlyn

  14. Too funny! I have so been to the weddings where the DJ thought he was the main act too, also I was at a wedding where two family members who didn't like one another got into a fist fight on the dance floor! That always makes for an entertaining evening LOL! I hope you are having a great week!

    BTW I love your new blog design it is too cute! I am going to try and add your button to my blog role. If it doesn't show up it isn't because I don't like you LOL, it is because I couldn't figure the dang thing out, it has been giving me issues LOL!

  15. oh those were HILARIOUS!!! Love it! At our wedding, my bridesmaids(there were EIGHT of them) were all puking in the bushes outside the reception...you'd think they would be able to hold their alcohol after all of our college nights, but guess not! Ha, they drank WAY too much, WAY too quickly!! But we all had fun!!
