“Chaos Unleashed: The Unforgettable Moments That Made Weddings Unpredictably Wild!”
The grandma of the groom got hit on the head with some blunt object on the dance floor and got rushed to the hospital.
A guest who was a speaker during the ceremony almost died during the cocktail. He had a massive heart attack and I was sure he was dead when they wheeled him away. A few days later the bride emailed me to let me know he lived but couldn’t remember the day. I sent her photos early to share with him.
Really nice wedding in Palos Verdes California. Private home just across the street from the ocean. Probably several million dollars for the house. Groom got drunk at the reception, tore his shirt off and started scooping handfuls of cake and throwing them at the guests. Me and the videographer got shots of it from a covered location. Not sure how long that marriage was going to last.
Drunk reception…bride gave stepdad lap dance. MOH gave mother of bride lapdance. Expected me to photograph it. Still in my files. End of night, they wanted me to drive their car up cause they were too drunk to drive…Did not do that and luckily my time was up so I packed up gear and started to leave. Bride starts cussing me out saying she paid me to be there until midnight (contract stated otherwise). Still haven’t received apology for that as the groom’s dad is acquaintances of my family. Bonus: preacher’s kid was the groom.
Bride’s mom and other family members made the DJ cry (for playing the wrong music, Egyptian vs Saudi). End of the reception the bride took the microphone and was about to go on a tirade but the groom took the mic from her.
To be fair. The DJ was pretty bad, during dinner the same Justin bieber song played like 7 times. She didn’t seem to notice.
