A missing groom

If the man of the hour disappears, it’s got to be an issue, right?

Well, it definitely is if he ends up being found in a compromising position.

According to one user: “Groom went missing from ceremony to reception. Bride found him banging the best man in the toilets. She smashed a glass in his face.”

A green card scam

While it’s always best to take the whole ‘green card’ as a reason to get married thing with a pinch of salt, this one is something that very well might be true.

A Redditor wrote: “My brother got married to a woman from Russia while in the army. The whole family thought she married him for a green card, but he was convinced it was love. They had their ceremony in a gazebo on a military base.”

However, it all went wrong when it turned up, and they believe all of the elements of the wedding led to their eventual divorce.

They said: “It was a small gathering of family that traveled to it from out of state. His best friend since high school got ordained just so he could marry them. My brother was really excited.

“He wore a nice suit and the bride… well… she showed up in a bright pink track suit. They divorced a year later.”
