This month’s question:
What is the craziest thing you’ve ever seen at a wedding?

Nate | 29
“I peed next to Greg Allman in the bathroom at the reception and then saw the guy from the TV show “Iron Chef” when we walked out to the bar in the lobby.”

 

 

 

 

James | 29
“While I was undoing my bride’s dress with a crochet hook on the night of my wedding, two hippies knocked on my hotel door looking for Greg Allman”

 

 

 

 

Adam | 29
“A bunch of us bought 1970s-style leisure suits at Goodwill and rolled through Bourbon Street for a bachelor party. You felt really cool until you got separated from the pack.”

 

 

 

 

Tim | 28
“I saw the groom get a lap dance from a Jessica Alba blow-up doll (with limbs hog tied behind her) the night before the wedding in front of a room full of people.”

 

 

 

 

Cheryl | 29
“During the ceremony in the church, all the flowers that were lined up behind the wedding party started on fire.”

 

 

 

 

Marilyn | 29
“About 20 people piled into our limo, and it was only meant for maybe 10. We went around the block, and the springs gave out and it dropped to the ground. Half the people ended up walking five miles home.”

 

 

 

 

Ian | 31
“I was standing up for my friend Tim a few years ago, and he was forced to walk down the aisle with a scarred-up face after a drunken wrestling match with friends left him unconscious the night before the wedding.”

 

 

 

 

Kurt | 30
“My friend Dave’s reception was in this church right on the intercoastal in Florida. They are introduced and start the first dance. Almost immediately, some old guy walks out the back of his house across the intercoastal, drops his towel and is stark naked and jumps in the pool. Everyone with their back turned thought we were all a--holes for laughing so hard.
