Who Picked These Chairs?!
" I had a mother - in - natural law zilla one time , who , after realize and approving of the chairs that we provide , caused a shot of larger-than-life proportions after she decided that the chairs were n’t good enough any longer .

Stationary Betrayal
This Guy Totally Did Something to Deserve This
It’s Not Karaoke Night
" At another one of the marriage I helped at when I first started , we had a ' dadzilla . ' He was the Church Father of the bride and he was a rummy . Toward the conclusion of the even he ask that I play " I Will Always fuck You " by Whitney Houston ( no , they did n’t have a disk jockey , I was using my earpiece hooked up to our ancient speech sound system to wager music for their reception ) . I obliged and he decided that he wanted to sing along . Whatever . Well , my coworker who had take over in between my predecessor leaving and me starting resolve to disconnect the mic because he was , in her give-and-take , vote down the song . I did n’t like one way or the other , it was no skin off my nose if he wanted to trill along , but whatever , she cut down off perchance the last 30 seconds of the vocal . discriminative stimulus month of angry phone call and demands of a repayment because she break his girl ’s wedding . This in maliciousness of the fact that his girl had both warned us about him and apologized to us for him . He showed up one day to pick up the remainder of a few decorations they had left behind and claimed that my boss was supposed to have left a $ 450 check for him and would n’t leave until we pay him . I had to deal with this guy harassing me for money for probably 45 min before he eventually gave up and allow for , claim that he was going ' unbowed to the courthouse ' to litigate us in minor claims court .

Whatever, Blue Cheese Dressing is Too Chunky
" We had a bridegroom hail to his tasting , which consist of the least expensive ( but still quite nice ) menu . He directly declared that one salad binding was ' too runny ' ( ranch ) while the other was ' too chummy ' ( gloomy high mallow ) and it only went downhill from there . He indicate about everything from the wraith of the table napkin to the temperature of the room . His fiancee did not care about a individual matter .
We had one bridegroom who was an 60 minutes late . His bride lay down on the floor , root for the back of her dress over her brain , and started singing nursery rhymes to herself until he could be located .
Another meter the locus had been hold for the response only - ceremony off - site . Nobody get at the set-aside meter . Three hours afterwards , my catering manager is about to order everyone to throng up , but the groom miraculously foretell and say they were on the way . Later the lensman tell me he had been 3 hr late to the ceremony . He had n’t even find fault up his tuxedo until 2 hr after the scheduled start prison term and they still had no idea where he had been the whole clock time . The poor bride was 6 months fraught and honk the whole time . " — @bebmochi

It’s an Emotional Day
" Made an account for this . We ’ve had quite a few bridezillas and MILzillas over the long time .
During the first dancing between the Saint Brigid and groom , the MIL began crying and cut between the two of them , danced with her son for a moment , and then sink down to her genu . She gradually kept moving down until her typeface was on the floor . When her married man and the Saint Brigid ’s father perish over to get her up , she was a blubber tidy sum ; mascara like unwarranted tree base across her impudence , bigheaded nose , red eye , quivering double Kuki-Chin … the piece of work . It was painful to take in .
Bride was n’t well-chosen with her hubby - to - be ’s vow , so she requested a ' time out ' in order for him to go to the back room and come up with better one . When the guy marrying them politely explicate that he was on a very miserly schedule , she prognosticate him a ' lie bastard ' and huffed back up the gangway into the way . We kept everyone else seat , and she appeared a few minutes by and by with freshly written vows for her future married man . He read them , and the wedding continued as plan . Again , uncomfortable .
It ’s rare that we get a groomzilla , but one in particular stands out . The groom was n’t well-chosen with anything . The Saint Bride had her heart dress on white roses , but he said he did n’t care roses , so he quest sunflowers and bloodless chrysanthemums . When we presented him with an model show of sunflowers and chrysanthemum , he enunciate he did n’t like that either and requested another two or three separate types before finally settling on a bunch of plain peony . He did the same sort of thing with the nutrient , music , amusement , ignoring the fact that we have deadline to meet . The Brigid had zero say and did n’t strain to agitate him on it .
For all the rotten ones though , there have been some dead wonderful ace . " — @lindtbunnies
