Wedding guests from Hell

Hey guys. I haven't been on since our wedding. We had so much stress and drama from the inlaws that I didn't even want to think about anything wedding related. My inlaws guests ruined our wedding reception. I posted the out takes video to youtube. For any of you who aren't married yet, if you don't want someone at your wedding that your inlaws are pushing for you to invite, take this video as a warning. Don't forget to ready my description on youtube for a full description of what happened.

  • Seriously. How did they even allow that to continue on? I'm with kiki, someone should have escorted them out.

    That's probably the dumbest shiit I've ever seen happen at a wedding.

    Edit:  I should have finished the video first. heh.

  • Do your IL's think this is funny? My first thought was that they were crashing (or rolling on E) and I would have had them escorted out.

  • The problem was hubby and I were so busy going from table to table to try and visit with our guests that we didn't see most of it. During the aftermath of the wedding when my MIL was trying to claim she didn't know it was going on and I told her we had proof she did, her next statement was that my hubby or I should have asked them to stop!! First off, we didn't know it was going on, second they were in INLAWS guests. We have been in a complete cut off from his parents since a week after the wedding. They feels they did nothing wrong, and this was just the last straw for us. His mother put me thru hell before the wedding.
  • Wow.  That bitch probably wore white on purpose, too.

    I'm pretty disgusted.  Mr. Heels thought it was funny, though.  That's a man for ya.
  • Is she on meds or something?  Drunk?  Multiple personality disorder?

    That's insane...and look at you trying to be all gracious when she was trying to lift up your dress.

  • The most insulting part for us was when we had our table cameras film developed and found pictures of their friends genitals on them. We were thoroughly disgusted.

    On the bright side, you look beautiful as did your venue :)

    That's just bad. You should make an album of them for your ILs, if they like their friends that much.

  • I'm surprised they even developed them.

    Reason number 597 that table cameras are a bad idea. That really sucks. What an idiot. It seems like the camera guy was just following her around filming her stupidity and encouraging her.
  • Our inlaws have proved to us time and again that their friends mean more to them than we do. Just goes to show you money doesn't buy class. I almost wonder if my MIL did nothing to stop it because she was so pissed at me for not letting her have control over the wedding planning. She's crazy. She started a huge fight with me a few days before my bridal shower, so I had hubby call her and tell her not to come, I didn't want to deal with her drama on a day that I was supposed to be surrounded by friends and family. She started screaming at him and threatened to go get her husbands gun and kill herself. That's how nut this woman is. I couldn't stand to even think about wedding related stuff for weeks after the wedding.
  • That's just wrong and disturbing. I agree that it was totally your in-laws' responsibility to keep this shitt in check. It's unacceptable for them to play the ignorance card on this. The redhead lady was an asshole. What grown-ass woman brings props to a wedding? If you and your H were truly oblivious to all of these shenanigans during your reception, then at least you'll have good memories of it to fall back on.

  • Fishy,

    Apparently Walgreens will develop stuff like that as long as there is no pedophilia and people aren't touching each other or themselves in a sexual nature
  • I am disgusted at their behavior!  How do grown people think it's okay to act like that.  And the pictures, I don't even have words for how grotesque they are.  You should show those to your MIL and tell her that you don't ever want to associate with her friends again.

  • Wow. Just... wow.

    Are these people like... escapees from an asylum or some other such ridiculousness? I'm so sorry you had that happen but good for you for being so gracious about it when idiot-supreme over there tried to lift your dress. What a twat, I'd have kicked her in her fake buck teeth.

  • Honestly, all I'd do at this point is smile, know that YOU did everything appropriately and see if your DH will say,

    "Mom, don't worry.  We still had a great wedding day.  The actions of a few people we hardly know aren't going to make or break us.  And hey, we're not the ones who have to call these people our friends."

    But for other people, I'd definitely say that THIS is why you make sure that your venue staff is ready to escort people out.  The crazy lady was inappropriate but she crossed a line when she came out WEARING A NAPKIN.  

    Oh well, at least you can say that you remember your wedding unlike them.


  • Well, we haven't spoken to the inlaws since a week after the wedding. We told them if they agreed to apologize and admit wrong doing to BOTH of us, we'd try to move on. They refused. The see nothing wrong with any of it. The holidays were very hard for my husband but we got thru it.
  • Good God, I can't believe these people are real.

    But hey, you looked really pretty!

    That's the part that bugged me the most, it was clearly pre-planned and not just because she happened to drink too much (not that that would in any way be excusable, at any rate).

  • Um...where did her shirt go?
    If nothing else, send this to America's Funniest Home Videos and see if you can win 10 grand. You get money, they get public shame.

  • Wow. I think it's a fair statement to say that your ILs friends are classless jackasses. On the other hand, you looked gorgeous!

  • Ditto.  You looked gorgeous!

    Seriously, I'd let this roll off your back.  Pick and choose your battles and know that none of your friends acted like drunken college sluts.
