“Chaos Unleashed: The Unforgettable Moments That Made Weddings Unpredictably Wild!”
Suddenly, I noticed a mob gathered around a particular location. Curious, I walked to the location where I observed a man (a random guest from bride’s side) lying down with blood streaming from his shoulder. He was struck by a bullet during celebratory firing.
He was taken away to a hospital.
Number of guests attending the event soon started leaving. I, too, wished the couple and returned from the venue within an hour.
Two days after the incident, I heard that the injured man was safe, but the episode made me nervous of marriages that included celebratory firing.
Unfortunately my wildest wedding experience involved the death of the groom’s father. He was happily dancing to a peppy Motown oldie with the bride and her matron of honor (ME) when he collapsed! We all thought he was joking until his skin changed color. The bride began CPR and an ambulance arrived quickly but it was too late. His wife was screaming hysterically and fainted as they took him away. Many guests were crying and there was complete chaos for the next half hour or so as the reception came to an end. Shockingly, in the confusion, some heartless people stole liquor and food and gifts!
As a wedding coordinator I had a very drunk groomsman hold a broken champagne glass to my throat because I cut him off (stopped his alcohol supply). It went a bit wild from there. There were fights, someone landed on the dessert buffet, cream and custard was everywhere. One of the bridesmaids used a butter knife and cut her dress off. There was banshee screaming from the bride. It was the most out of control wedding I’d ever witnessed.
