from Beautiful Illusions Event Styling.
And Ruth Ryan from Ruth Ryan Photography.
The purpose of the Bridal Brief is to help you before, on and
after your wedding day with our advice.
Plus bringing on a few friends along the way.
All right. Hey, Steph, how are you?
Good. How are you?
I'm very excited because we haveour bonus episode today.
(00:22):
Good bonus. Episode this time we're just
we've got funny stories basically we're telling each
other these stories for the first time yes yes we haven't we
haven't briefed each other's stories so hopefully we don't
have any double UPS but these are because we've just.
Searched for these, yeah. Yeah, these are just some funny
stories in case you're driving on your way to work and you just
want some, but let's hope these some of these don't happen to
(00:44):
you kind of stories. Agree, like I wouldn't want most
of what I found for. Me, some of mine were funny,
some of mine were just tragic. So let's just get into.
I know if you do come across a funny story from a wedding, we
would love to hear from you. Yeah, it's always nice to get
some unique ones that we haven'theard before.
Yeah, that's right. That's right.
Do you want to go first stuff? Yep.
(01:05):
OK, I'm just gonna read this straight from this Reddit one.
OK OK. My sister and her husband were
driving a golf cart from the photo location to the reception
venue. Her dress was a ball gown with a
longish train and the skirt got caught under the tyre of the
golf cart. Oh.
No, just. As her new husband stepped on
(01:26):
the gas, this literally tore theskirt off from the waist of the
dress. Oh.
Of course it would. And the and my poor sister was
just standing there sobbing in her undergarments.
This is all, isn't? It a few bridesmaids haphazardly
stitched the skirt back to the top of the dress, but the damage
had been done. Oh, and I'll let an hour later
(01:47):
my brother, who was 25 at the time, through a temper tantrum
and stormed out. Good times.
Wow. What a horrible wedding.
That's that is horrible. I mean this poor bride.
I mean, I have heard of like a dress Jerry yeah and stuff just
from like the photos and stuff. But like the.
Whole skirt. Whole skirt ripping off.
(02:08):
Yeah. At least, at least it wasn't,
you know, in front of the priestor something.
Right in the whole congregation.The whole.
Congregation just the photo justout there for the photos
probably just your bridesmaids and a couple of groomsmen.
I just. Can't think of anything.
Worse. Yeah, that's.
Oh, that's terrible. Yeah.
All right. OK, your turn.
My 1 is called a little too wild.
(02:29):
We got married in the White Mountains in a field.
Not a mowed Meadow or lawn, but a legitimate field with long
grass and bugs. My husband has always been one
with nature. He would rather sleep in the
snow than in a bed. When we got engaged, I agreed to
let him choose the locations if I could be in charge of things
(02:50):
like the dress and the cake and the music.
You can just imagine how this went.
Yeah, the entire wedding party, guess and all, had to trudge
through a field to the centre where the Justice of the Peace
and two musicians waited. As my sister, my maid of honour
and I made our way through the field, a grasshopper flew up my
gown. My sister had to kneel down and
(03:13):
try and get it out, shaking and lifting the dress in front of
all of our wedding guests. That would have looked so fun.
During the ceremony, my husband had a bee crawling casually
across his face. I had to try and remain calm as
he casually shooed it away. Later on, we had the reception
in the common area of the resortcondo complex with a BBQ catered
(03:34):
by a local restaurant. After dinner, plates were
cleared, leftovers and trash were put in the dumpster.
Around 10:00 PM, a guest came running and screaming in into
the room to announce that a black bear was gorging on our
leftover. Oh, happy wedding day.
That's great. Grasshoppers, bees, and a bear.
(03:54):
Right. I actually saw a reel the other
day. If I see it again, I will share
it. Yeah.
Of a bridesmaid who had like a giant fly, like bouncing around,
and she's trying to keep composure.
And she did really well. Because I mean, there's some
people that that wouldn't botherthem, obviously, like this guy.
But yeah, a lot of people just run screaming for the hills.
(04:16):
If it was a spider, I don't think I could keep my cool.
No, I don't think I. Could no right and I did I I
when I was looking I read another one about a field and
how much it smelt from all the cow the cow patties.
Yeah, right field. Yep, and how it's done.
It was a bit like. Shelley's wedding proposal
story. That she had.
If you want to look back on, I think it was episode 2, yes, To
(04:37):
hear that story, yes. Lots of good times, no, right?
Oh, that's. Terrible.
Oh, the elegance goes out the window sometimes, Yes.
OK. I've got this one, my uncles.
5th or. 6th wedding. I honestly don't remember which
because he's been married and divorced so many times.
He's even about to remarry a past wife for the second time
(05:00):
soon and he fully expected wedding gifts of cash only
during the reception. He gathered all the envelopes
and set himself up at a middle table with a note booking
calculator and counted all the money he got instead of enjoying
his reception. He was greedy seeing how much
(05:20):
money people gave him. Oh.
My goodness. I was barely 20 and I'd
scrounged up 20 bucks to give him, but when I saw him counting
everything up with his damn reading glasses and the
calculator, I just. Kept it, good idea.
Good call a lot. Of people would panic and go I
have to throw some more money into this envelope because he's.
Like clearly writing down my name.
(05:42):
But he doesn't need it. No, it's.
A bit crazy. Isn't it?
That's yeah. That's just rude, isn't?
That rude? Yeah.
All right, this one's called. Oh no, this didn't happen at a
wedding, but at a five year wedding anniversary.
I was working as a waiter at an inn.
We had ballrooms for private parties and other bigger events.
The bride and groom had spared no expense.
(06:04):
About 100 guests, 5 course meal and open bar.
A whole day party. We were supposed to close at
4:00 in the morning. It was grand and one of the
biggest parties I had waited on so far.
After the main course, the husband of five years stood up
and held a speech, A long one. He started out about reminiscing
(06:26):
about how they met, their early life together, the hard times
that they had enjoyed. He then talked at length about
how happy he was on their wedding day and that they were
glad to have the chance to have the big reception party that
they couldn't afford back then. So far, it was one of the best
speeches I had ever heard. It was heartfelt, he had a lot
(06:47):
of charisma, he was well spoken and funny.
But then he turned to his wife again.
He said that he hated her and for the last and the last year
of their life together, that shewas a toxic narcissist and had
made him feel miserable and almost had driven him to attempt
suicide. Oh wow, I've got dart quick.
(07:11):
He told her that he knew she hada lover, pointed him out in the
crowd sitting next to his wife and his newborn son.
Oh my God, he had evidence and was suing for and was going for
a divorce. He intended to take everything.
He gave the divorce papers rightthere and then.
Then he announced to everyone that he had gotten his own
(07:33):
apartment. The movers had actually been
moving their stuff while they'vebeen at the party.
That's why he insisted on such along day.
And then he'd be leaving, surely.
But everyone was welcome to stayin the stunned silence that
ensured he tipped all the staff,dishwashers, bosses, waiters,
myself $200 each and left. Needless to say, all except
(07:53):
family had left the party withinthe hour.
Oh my. Lord, imagine the gossip after
that one. I.
Know to be a flyer in the wall of that.
I mean, he could have just snuckaway quietly, but he he did the
full shebang. He did it right, He did it right
for him. For him, yeah, if it if, if it
(08:16):
was all true and had all the evidence there and that's crazy.
Yeah. Oh, that's terrible.
It's an. Expensive like like an expensive
like handing over of the divorce.
It is, isn't? It I mean, yeah, I mean there's
part of me that I mean depends on their financial situation.
They might be out of easily afforded that.
But yeah, good on him. I mean, good on him.
And he even remembered to tip the staff on the way out.
(08:38):
I mean, don't we all wish we could have a moment like that
when someone's done us dirty? It's just a a good classic
revenge. Yeah, yes, that's all we asked
for. A bit of classic revenge, right?
Who doesn't love that? OK, I've got my cousin.
Had a destination wedding. Probably a three hour drive for
all the guests. Close enough to drive, but far
(09:00):
enough not to be able to run back home.
The wedding was at like noon. The reception wasn't until 6:00
PM. She wanted to go on a drinking
bus tour of the city with only the wedding party and take her
wedding photos before the reception.
The entire slew of guests all hung out in the lobby for five
(09:21):
hours in. The lobby in the.
Lobby. Yeah.
And there was no food? No.
Food. Eventually they had some We had
some people run and get a bunch of Taco Bell just to tie them
over. Stop it.
I'm just imagining, you know, the father of the bride coming
back in his beautiful suit with a whole bunch of bags of Taco.
(09:42):
Bell Yeah, this is not the only one I have about food today.
So tragic. Absolute tragic because.
I I get hungry. I do too.
Because I think also like sometimes if it's a friend's
wedding, I've had to decorate itas well decorated.
And then I'm frantically trying to get ready and.
Go. Same.
As if I'm taking photos. Yeah.
(10:03):
Like the more you're moving and we're moving around, we're
thinking. We're constantly running here
and there and everyone get. Hungry.
You forget. See, the bride and groom don't
get to eat because of the photos.
Like they won't eat much. What about the guests?
Like, yeah, they're gonna. At least feed the guests, right?
Please do some. Canapes.
Come on, cheese. Platters, that's all we ask for.
(10:25):
OK, all right, here we go. This this one is my last but it
is definitely I feel the worst. Yeah.
Yeah, I do like the tea ones. Obviously.
This is this is what I like tea.Yeah.
My sister's wedding was a masterpiece of classic elegance,
but it had one major flaw. The groom's mum, this woman, a
human version of a passive aggressive emoji.
(10:49):
I can just imagine that insistedon using a priceless ancient
porcelain box as a test for my sister's worthiness.
She filled it with rose petals for the flower girls and said
with a terrifyingly serene smile.
I just want to see if you can handle our family's traditions.
The 2 flower girls, a pair of five year olds in puffy dresses,
(11:12):
were handed the heavy box. It was so big they had to carry
it like they were transporting abomb.
They took two wobbly steps and in a moment of pure slapstick,
the box slipped, hit the marble floor and exploded.
It wasn't just a break, it was aporcelain confetti cannon.
Oh my goodness. The mother in law's face was a
(11:34):
study in theatrical horror. She pointed at a perfect
manicured finger at my sister and shrieked.
I knew it. You ruined everything.
Or you did, I mean. She wasn't even holding the box.
No. Anyway, before the bridal party
could melt into a puddle of second hand embarrassment, my
new brother in law stepped in. He calmly picked up a piece of
(11:57):
the shattered box, looked his mum dead in the eye and said
Mum, it's just a box. I'm marrying the woman I love,
not the family China. Yeah, I know.
Right. Then, for dramatic effect, he
dropped the Shard back on the floor.
The mother in It's their official reminder
(12:30):
that some traditions are made tobe broken.
So that's nice ending isn't? That nice ending, but yeah, who
does? That I know, and he's giving it
to two little kids. Yeah, he's a priceless family
heirloom. You don't even get to touch it.
Let's give it to the five year olds.
Of course they're going to drop it and then blame the bride.
(12:50):
Yeah, on her wedding day. I'm so glad that the the son
stepped in though. Yeah, because that is a sign of
just a good bloke. That is, that is definitely a
good sign. I yeah, I like him, yes, agreed.
Agreed. Yep, Yep.
OK, got another food, one I. Do like the food one there
you're. Making a short one.
Yeah, they ran out of food for the last two tables who just
(13:15):
happened to be the Co workers ofthe bride.
We had to order pizza delivery and pay for it ourselves.
The bride's family refused to pay for it.
You never remember the good weddings, but you never forget
the bad one. That is so true.
Oh, how could you think? How on earth did that even?
(13:36):
Happen, I know. Miscalculation.
I mean, did she not call up and give new numbers or?
Yeah. Wow, that's crazy.
Yeah, that it is crazy. I've got another one.
Oh yeah, yeah. Bonus one Bonus one for our
bonus episode. Yes, OK, I was supposed to be in
the bridal party and was told that things were casual to just
(13:56):
show up on the day wearing something dressy casual that I
felt good in. So there was she was supposed to
be in the bridal party, rememberthis?
But. But this is what she had been
told right? I showed up, saw the wedding
party in coordinated outfits with their corsages, bouquets
and the whole 9 yards and realised they hadn't had the
(14:18):
guts to tell me they didn't wantme in the bridal party after
all. Oh, I mean, what do you do at
that point? Do you just leave?
Yes, I would just leave. I just.
Feel like that's a bit. That's a bit much, yes.
I mean, that's just rude. Yeah, like have the guts to tell
someone or have a conversation. I think a lot of people will
(14:39):
understand. Yeah, that's like the reasoning
behind it. That's.
Right. You've got too many or maybe you
want to have even numbers and your groom doesn't have that
many or whatever it is. So may have changed.
Yeah. And so people are like, if
they're a good enough friend, they're gonna understand.
Yeah, yeah. Communication, guys.
Yes. I think that actually it's been
a lot of them. I think even the one with the
(15:00):
the 2 tables that miss their food but they feel like somebody
didn't communicate with the venue.
All the time when people are giving me their final numbers,
they forget to either include themselves or include themselves
in the bridal party. Yeah.
Right, all the time. Yeah.
Like we've invited 70 guests. Oh, but we've got 8IN the bride.
That's that's a huge amount. Eight people.
(15:20):
It is. You know, and they forget all
the time. All the time.
Yeah. So just be good with your
numbers, people. Good.
With your numbers and communicate.
Please communicate and don't give priceless fairly heirlooms
to five year olds. I think that's the key here.
That's the key, I think, if you're gonna take one piece
away. Out the field that you're
getting married in before you doit.
Yeah, yeah, maybe mow it. Yeah.
(15:41):
You know, mower. Get the mower out.
Just a mower is helpful. That was lots of fun, I hope you
guys enjoyed it. Yes, a short, but a good one.
That's right, we'll see you nextweek.
See you later. Bye.

She filled it with rose petals for the flower girls and said
with a terrifyingly serene smile.
I just want to see if you can handle our family's traditions.
The 2 flower girls, a pair of five year olds in puffy dresses,
(11:12):
were handed the heavy box. It was so big they had to carry
it like they were transporting abomb.
They took two wobbly steps and in a moment of pure slapstick,
the box slipped, hit the marble floor and exploded.
It wasn't just a break, it was aporcelain confetti cannon.
Oh my goodness. The mother in law's face was a
(11:34):
study in theatrical horror. She pointed at a perfect
manicured finger at my sister and shrieked.
I knew it. You ruined everything.
Or you did, I mean. She wasn't even holding the box.
No. Anyway, before the bridal party
could melt into a puddle of second hand embarrassment, my
new brother in law stepped in. He calmly picked up a piece of
(11:57):
the shattered box, looked his mum dead in the eye and said
Mum, it's just a box. I'm marrying the woman I love,
not the family China. Yeah, I know.
Right. Then, for dramatic effect, he
dropped the Shard back on the floor.
The mother in It's their official reminder
(12:30):
that some traditions are made tobe broken.
So that's nice ending isn't? That nice ending, but yeah, who
does? That I know, and he's giving it
to two little kids. Yeah, he's a priceless family
heirloom. You don't even get to touch it.
Let's give it to the five year olds.
Of course they're going to drop it and then blame the bride.
(12:50):
Yeah, on her wedding day. I'm so glad that the the son
stepped in though. Yeah, because that is a sign of
just a good bloke. That is, that is definitely a
good sign. I yeah, I like him, yes, agreed.
Agreed. Yep, Yep.
OK, got another food, one I. Do like the food one there
you're. Making a short one.
Yeah, they ran out of food for the last two tables who just
(13:15):
happened to be the Co workers ofthe bride.
We had to order pizza delivery and pay for it ourselves.
The bride's family refused to pay for it.
You never remember the good weddings, but you never forget
the bad one. That is so true.
Oh, how could you think? How on earth did that even?
(13:36):
Happen, I know. Miscalculation.
I mean, did she not call up and give new numbers or?
Yeah. Wow, that's crazy.
Yeah, that it is crazy. I've got another one.
Oh yeah, yeah. Bonus one Bonus one for our
bonus episode. Yes, OK, I was supposed to be in
the bridal party and was told that things were casual to just
(13:56):
show up on the day wearing something dressy casual that I
felt good in. So there was she was supposed to
be in the bridal party, rememberthis?
But. But this is what she had been
told right? I showed up, saw the wedding
party in coordinated outfits with their corsages, bouquets
and the whole 9 yards and realised they hadn't had the
(14:18):
guts to tell me they didn't wantme in the bridal party after
all. Oh, I mean, what do you do at
that point? Do you just leave?
Yes, I would just leave. I just.
Feel like that's a bit. That's a bit much, yes.
I mean, that's just rude. Yeah, like have the guts to tell
someone or have a conversation. I think a lot of people will
(14:39):
understand. Yeah, that's like the reasoning
behind it. That's.
Right. You've got too many or maybe you
want to have even numbers and your groom doesn't have that
many or whatever it is. So may have changed.
Yeah. And so people are like, if
they're a good enough friend, they're gonna understand.
Yeah, yeah. Communication, guys.
Yes. I think that actually it's been
a lot of them. I think even the one with the
(15:00):
the 2 tables that miss their food but they feel like somebody
didn't communicate with the venue.
All the time when people are giving me their final numbers,
they forget to either include themselves or include themselves
in the bridal party. Yeah.
Right, all the time. Yeah.
Like we've invited 70 guests. Oh, but we've got 8IN the bride.
That's that's a huge amount. Eight people.
(15:20):
It is. You know, and they forget all
the time. All the time.
Yeah. So just be good with your
numbers, people. Good.
With your numbers and communicate.
Please communicate and don't give priceless fairly heirlooms
to five year olds. I think that's the key here.
That's the key, I think, if you're gonna take one piece
away. Out the field that you're
getting married in before you doit.
Yeah, yeah, maybe mow it. Yeah.
(15:41):
You know, mower. Get the mower out.
Just a mower is helpful. That was lots of fun, I hope you
guys enjoyed it. Yes, a short, but a good one.
That's right, we'll see you nextweek.
See you later. Bye.
