by No matter how meticulous you have prepared for your wedding day, there are some things you just can’t anticipate. Fortunately, these epic fails are incredibly rare and thus entertaining to watch. But always remember; if something unfortunate does happen take it in stride and smile. In the end, it will be a story for generations and something to look back on and laugh about in the years to come. Really.
1. Let Them Eat Cake! Or Not….
Cutting the cake is one of the time-honored traditions of almost every wedding and symbolizes the first joint endeavor a couple will undertake together. The take-away: – check both the table and cake supports well before the reception.
2. Falling in the Deep
Clumsy best man + nearby pool = one very unhappy bride.
Part Two only gets worse for our surefooted groomsmen as he is attacked by a deranged bridesmaid. Maid-zilla anyone? The take-away: – Don’t set up your dais too close to a watersource.
3. The Walking Dead
Watching this clip is something right of a horror movie as the best man is transformed into a gazebo destroying zombie right before our very eyes. The take-away: –Hydrate every member of the bridal party before the ceremony!
4. Dropping Trou
Dropping trou takes on a whole new significance for this poor couple as the brides father has a rather unfortunate wardrobe malfunction. Luckily the Bride and Groom seem to take it all in stride, except neither can stop laughing. The take-away: – No matter what, love and laugh together.
5. In The Air Tonight
Maybe he was inspired by the song, but this ridiculous excuse for a wedding DJ is touted across the internet with the well-deserved moniker “The Worst DJ Ever”. All we know is, his drum kit doesn’t look amused. The take-away: – Low rent, classless DJs can have unfortunate consequences.
6. The Moon Came Out
This poor bride had a double disaster. As if tripping over as you walk down the aisle wasn’t bad enough, what happens next is every bride’s worst nightmare. The take-away: – we got nothing…
7. Never Backflip at a Wedding – Part 1
We love it when the bridal party makes a fun energetic entrance. It sets the tone for the entire reception and it was all going so well until the groomsmen decided to perform a backflip into his bridesmaid escort. The take-away: – Never do a backflip in a tuxedo
8. Never Backflip at a Wedding – Part 2
Seriously, listen to us, backflips at weddings never end well. The take-away: – Just don’t do it!
9. Let’s All Go For a Swim
Just “Sitting on the Dock of the Bay” may have been what they had in mind, but Like we said earlier, steer clear of lakes in less you want to take a wedding day dunk. The take-away: – make sure the dock, bridge, stage.
10. Ceremony Goes to the Dogs
Yes working with animals can be a bit of a challenge. We have had a number of our clients incorporate their canine companions into their ceremony. However, none with this result! But the bride handled it with a smile and thus we say, if you want your dog to be a part of your big day, go ahead and just do it! The take-away: – Make sure your dog has a potty break before the ceremony!
11. And Down He Goes
This is actually a bit terrifying and simply reinforces our recommendation that you hydrate and feed every member of the bridal party before the ceremony. The take-away: – Also, don’t lock your knees while standing – that causes people to keel over as well.
12. Walk Don’t Run
What can we say? Ouch!! The take-away: – When carrying your bride, down the aisle, over the threshold, wherever…. Please walk, Don’t Run!
13. Oh Poo….
The very best thing about this clip, is the reaction of the Bride and the Groom. Remember, things can and perhaps will go wrong on your wedding day. But, the way you choose to handle them will make all the difference. In the case of this lovely couple, think of the stories they will have for all the years to come. The take-away: – Always look to the side of laughter and love, no matter what.
14. Wedding Band that WIll Make You Cringe
