Bad Wedding Cliches That Make Me Want To Say "I Don't."

Who really wants to grab a strangers hips? Unless they’re hot.

Exactly.

My sister banned this from her wedding. Then the 7 kids who were invited started their own! It did not last long.

Haha they don’t know any better :)

Exactly. At least they didn’t start the chicken dance!

I’m a little bit vain, so I’d probably do this…

If I’m invited to your wedding, I’m going to boo. Out of love of course.

I made a slideshow of my sis and her hubby (it stayed in the lobby) and the pictures were incredibly embarrassing! But we did not stop the wedding to watch it!

I think I could live with it running in the background, but if a huge production was made over it, I’d feel weird.

SO true. Everyone would be laughing at all your awkward moments right in your face.

I can definitely laugh at myself, but on my wedding day? No way man. I’m supposed to be a princess. I laugh at you! :P

Agreed! When people see my middle school pictures, they’ll tell my new husband to run! The wedding would be doomed.

So really the success of the marriage depends solely on the video montage.

I DJ’d my own wedding by editing our favorite music into a video file. The music that I either couldn’t find a video or live performance of, I edited a montage of photos and videos of us growing up.

That’s a pretty nifty idea!

Oooh that is a really good idea! And you can save money on a DJ!

ARE WE JOKING WITH THIS PICTURE? OH MAN

I wish I was.

OMG. who wears jeans on their wedding day?!

Who wears an airbrushed wedding dress?

Definitely not happening at my wedding!!

5) I don’t want my family to witness my husband’s face that close to my va jay jay

Exactly. My now-uncle did this at my aunt’s wedding and I felt super uncomfortable. His head was there a little too long.

Actually, as a single bachelor here… I think a well timed awkwerd muff-dive in the movies would be hi-larious! Are you listening, Traler Park Boys?

Ahhh I’m getting totally creeped out now.

Equally creeped out.

My brother was at a wedding where the groom’s buddies thought it was funny to yell things about hunting for tuna. Yes, really.

Wow…

ewww even more creeped out now. He would SO be kicked out of my wedding.

i think you are all just a little bit uptight! and if your groom has friends that are that crude and you don’t find the humor in it. . . maybe you have a bigger problem!

its supposed to be a cute funny and yes a little suggestive tradition, get the stick out of your ass already!!

I think this tradition is a lot more civilized then the traditional “Bedding Ceremony” that took place in English weddings. Or the whole everyone gets to make out with the bride tradition? No thanks.

My wife and I had a special dance for all the married couples removing couples by years married as we went. The last couple on the floor got a garter and the bouquet as the prize for the years of love.

I caught the bouquet a year ago….still waiting for my ring….

Ooopph. One time I was a little drunk and ducked to avoid it, rather obviously. Bride WAS NOT happy.

Hahaha! Karey I would have done the same thing!

My sister tried to throw hers to me :x The first time she threw it, it hit the ceiling and fell back on her. The second time, she threw it so far, it landed behind the DJ. Thank God.

Hahaha it wasn’t meant to be I guess.

Yeah, I’d duck too! Or catch it and try to sell it afterwards.

I wonder who would buy it.

Ooh now selling it is a good idea. You KNOW you could get some good money for that from some sucker!

People sell anything these days. Just recently a friend almost got scammed on eBay. She thought a guy was selling an iPhone 3GS, but he was really selling the information on HOW to get one.

HAHA that is ridiculous! I wonder how much he got for it!

The winner backed out so he moved onto the second bidder, who told me about it. I imagine he’s going down the line now. I want to smack whoever falls for it.

I want to smack him too!

There was an episode of Dr. Phil where a woman’s marriage was ruined because her husband did this to her and she lost all trust in him!! Traumatizing! (they re-did the cake cutting on the show!)

Wow. I didn’t think it was big enough to ruin a marriage.

haha love the dr. phil story. but if i ever get married, cake shall be smeared.

This is some kind of passive aggressive stuff going on when you smear cake on each other at your wedding.

Haha, it wasn’t the cake, it was the trust! They talked about not doing it ahead of time and he did anyway. It was VERY dramatic in true Dr. Phil fashion!

Well that makes more sense. If they had agreed not to do it, and then it happened, well I guess I’d be a little upset too. But I think I would have laughed it off after a while.

I don’t understand the whole feeding each other thing to begin with, but smearing in front of your whole family is humiliating.

It’s supposed to be fun! And playful! But I’m not a fan. I can eat my own cake, thank you very much. I’ve never had a problem before and won’t now that I have a husband!

Never get this either. It’s kind of mean, and people end up with cake on the dress ,etc.

i agree it should be fun and playful (and no cake should touch the dress)however some couples have a lot of that pas. agr. going and maybe they need to rethink the whole thing!

I always found it annoying at other people’s wedding. However, at my own..it was pretty cute. Except when i was actively chewing. And it’s the same people doing it over and over again.

Agreed. If the same people are doing it over and over again it gets really annoying really fast.

Yep — a few times, ok. Then stop it or you will be ejected from the reception hall.

i didn’t even know this one lol. I wonder what the superstition behind this one is…

Nobody did it at my sister’s wedding, which was quite excellent!

This happened at every wedding I’ve been to.

Me too! I was shocked nobody did it at hers.

Thank you!! I can’t believe I forgot about this!

It’s beautiful. Just WAY overdone!

And there should be a lot of “sometimes not”’s stuck in some of those sentences.

Agreed.

Right? What are we teaching kids? That love is perfect??

That’s fairy tale stuff!

Yeah, maybe in a perfect world! But let’s get real, people!

Exactly! I like being real.

Agreed! Never understood wedding by the numbers.
