A wedding is intended to be a beautiful event that the bride and groom will remember for the rest of their lives. And if they manage to host a wonderful celebration, even the guests might look back on the day fondly for years to come. So it’s important for the bride and groom to consider how their loved ones will react to their wedding’s agenda. Otherwise, it might be remembered for all the wrong reasons…
Wedding guests on Reddit have recently been discussing the most cringeworthy things they’ve ever seen brides and grooms do. From turning intimate moments into spectacles to forcing eye contact with everyone in attendance, these couples should have run their ideas past someone else before solidifying them. Enjoy reading through this list that will likely give you second-hand embarrassment, and be sure to upvote the situations that you wish you could have seen in person!

Their reception started two hours late in July in the Bronx with no air conditioning. They did their version of the garter toss which had the best man put the garter on the 9 months pregnant matron of honor (both married, not to each other). Both were visibly sweating, as was everyone else in the event hall, and most of the guests were looking at their phones to avoid watching. After 4 hours they brought one singular fan in to the hall.

Oh I got this. Instead of kissing when we clinked glasses, they would stick out their tongues and wiggle the ends of them while touching the tips to one another. Every. Single. Kiss. Except for the first kiss at the wedding.

There was nothing to drink except alcohol… it was on the beach and not everyone was over 21.
Also the food (pizza) had sat out cold for hours because the bride kept pushing her own wedding back because of poor planning, and we also didn’t get any napkins for said pizza.

At my cousin's wedding, the bride and groom gave a little speech after the rest about their first date. Cute, totally normal. Except their first date was when she was underage (which he made multiple jokes about) and he snuck her into some kind of festival where they were giving out those little single shot bottles of alcohol. The groom ended the speech by, very sincerely, revealing a mini bottle of Fireball from his jacket and saying "and this is that bottle that I was given on our first date, I held onto it all these years, and now I would be honoured to drink it with you" and they unironically did an arms intertwined shot of fireball.
It was not the weirdest speech of the night believe it or not.

Went to a Halloween Covid wedding. The groom was a fat very out of shape 40 year old man in a skintight Deadpool suit. It was extremely unflattering and showed his rolls and his junk. At one point he started pole dancing. Like like full on pole dancing, groping the air and the pole, spinning around it, twerking. Etc.

Wife a hour late because she had to be talked out of Limo. Then she sang the GREATEST LOVE OF ALL. To him. We all knew he was banging 2/3 girls for the last month. They split up in less than 4 months.

My uncle stuck his entire head/upper body up his new wife’s dress to get the garter with his teeth, in front of everyone including his own child from a previous marriage.

Coming in on a helicopter while guests drank drinks poured from the his/her busts made of ice. Tacky-topia. She also forced her sisters to wear dresses that didn't fit, (one sister too big one sister too small). I guess she made her folks take a mortgage out to afford it.

All of those videos where a guy writes HELP ME on the bottom of his shoes so everyone sees it when he kneels for the blessing. Or any other time men “joke” about not really wanting to get married. Eff that.

Treating the waitstaff like background actors in their 'movie ' watching a couple spend thousands on aesthetics but treat the servers like invisible props is the ultimate mask off moment. your wedding doesnt give you a one-day pass to lose your humanity.

Had the ring bearers, who were in their late teens, come out as hobbits. It was not a themed wedding and was in a big church, so it was very odd. But that was nowhere near the worst part. The groom, who is a decent musician, sang and played the piano while the bride was walking down the aisle. The angle of the piano wasn't facing down the aisle so he couldn't see her well. I'm all for people breaking some traditions at weddings, but the bride walking down the aisle seems like it should very much be her moment.

It was Up themed. And as if that weren’t enough, instead of lighting a candle (cheesy enough already), they built something together out of Legos during the ceremony. The groom was also like, 17 (?) years older than the 19 or 20 year old bride. And I believe the venue was an old sanatorium.
