Worst Wedding Guests

Whether the wedding has taken place or not, you probably already know who is going to cause problems! But for me my sister's boyfriend turned out to be the wildcard. They broke up/got back together/broke up/got back together several times before the wedding. Then I finally get to meet him at the rehearsal and realize he is a total scuzz bag.

My BMs were practicing putting my dress on (sister is MOH) and he comes into the hotel room and sits on the couch drinking a beer! While BMs have their hands/heads/etc stuck up my dress and various parts of my body are exposed! SIL had to physically escort him out of the room.

People were coming up to me all night asking me who he was and telling me that he had either given them his business card or inappropriately tried rubbing their backs.

Who was the guest all your other guests were talking about at the wedding? Or who are you most worried about misbehaving?

    Beyond worried about fbil's fiance. She will have put 1 year old niece with her and she refuses to take care of her. She expects me and fh to when we.are around. I totally do not want to take care of a baby on my wedding day. She is also psycho and starts drama with everyone everywhere we go so who knows what she will do

    We had a guy that was a dick to our DJ because our DJ wouldn't play a song by Bone Thugs N' Harmony. Ugh.

    I was worried how my step-mom would act around my mom, but she was so into the party and everyone was just having a good time and it all went well. No drama *whew*

    I also have my cousins on my mom's side that like to party and get drunk. I find it all embarassing, but at the wedding my husband was trying to get our sisters drunk, demanding drunk relatives. My sister and I just told him to give it an hour or two. Before long there were the drunk relatives dancing and my husband was pleased. I no longer find them embarasing. I look back and laugh and feel kinda lucky because not all families have those "party animal" cousins that make a party fun.

    I'm afraid that my dad will someone find out when/where the wedding is. I'm also afraid my mom will make a scene or that FMIL is going to spend the night trash talking me and FH (which won't go over well with my grandparents)

    I had two MOHs. I told each separately that I needed her to keep the other from getting too sloppy drunk hoping this would also help her to not get too sloppy. They both got very sloppy.

    One lost my bouquet, aka set it down the moment I handed it to her during photos and it never made it to the reception.

    The other gave a really long, off script, very drunk and uncomfortable toast in which she yelled at my sister and told everyone I used to do things with men in bars. I was mostly upset that she yelled at my sister, and that it was so long it was boring. Because she was already this wasted at speech time, I actually didn't see her much for the rest of the night.

    I was most worried about my MIL being rude to my FIL-- they had a nasty divorce years before, and she just would not get over it. We didn't serve any alcohol, though, and she was able to hold it together. The people who *did* shock me, surprisingly, were my dad and step-mother who brought a bottle of wine to our dry wedding. "Um.... this was not a BYOB situation, guys...." Luckily they also held it together and I didn't know till later that they'd brought the wine. Still, if you can't go five hours without a drink, you have got a problem!

    My FHs usher. He is a super nice and friendly guy, but he has a heavy drinking problem. I'm not worried that he'll start a fight. I'm worried he'll end up throwing up on the dance floor or somehow do something so embarrassing I'll end up losing it on him. We've never been to the bar with him without him being cut off or having to convince the bouncers that he's not drunk he's just tying his shoe..

    I'm worried about my Brother and my brother in law, right now they live in two seperate states but bring them together and add alcohol and I could have unexpected fireworks at my wedding. I hope everyone is on their best behavior.

    I'm not really worried about anyone in particular. Oma (FH's grandma) will probably throw a fit because her daughter isn't sitting at the same table as her (the daughter had RSVPed no, then grandma offered to pay for her plane ticket, but tables were already figured out -- sorry lady). This could be a public fit, or a private "shame on you". Who knows. It'll be a big ole surprise.

    Aside from that, we will probably have a few drunk coworkers and friends. One in particular can be super loud and crazy when he drinks but not in an awkward uncomfortable way ... he just becomes the life of the party and can sometimes steal attention ... but if that's the worst of it at the wedding, I'd be totally happy and content.

    OoOo, I just hope one of the groomsmen doesn't bother FH's family. He's a good guy but he's really irresponsible and they can't stand him. When he drinks, GM will walk right up to you and say something inappropriate. Hopefully, his wife can keep him in order. Yikes. Didn't think about that one.

    I have totally been *that* guest. At the last wedding I was at, we ended up building a tower of our used wine glasses. We had ... a lot to drink. It was a cash bar as well.

    I almost feel sheepish about it now but seriously we had such a good time. And we were out on the dance floor a lot and all that but ye gods...

    Almost sheepish.

    FMIL doesn't like me and doesn't like to be in positions where she is not the center of attention. At least in my experience that is. FH swears she is a great person and wouldn't act poorly when he is around. I call bs cause she does this all the time around me.

    My aunt who is loud and opinionated. She likes to shock people by what she says. She is hard to wrangle so I'm hoping some of my moms cousins can hold her down.

    A few others who like to drink which is why we are o my having wine and beer and not hard liquor. Mostly they will be on good behavior, but if something happened we would say "yeah we should have seen that coming".

    I can't exactly not invite my FMIL or aunt and the drinkers are super super close friends. I'd rather not provide alcohol than not have them there so here's hoping everything goes smoothly.

    I'm not sure who they were, but my worst guests were the ones who took ALL the leftover catering, unopened costumes for the photobooth, all the decorations for our getaway car. Not. fucking. cool.

    The only person I'm worried about is my brother. He's not invited. I just have a fear he will show up anyways.

    These are some crazy guests! I can't believe people do that stuff. Like make a ridiculous needlepoint as a gift, rub strangers backs all night, and take all the leftovers, costumes and decorations. Insane!

    Went to DH's bro's wedding in 2013. Bride's niece was the FG. She was around age 2. FG's mom (bride's bro's baby momma) let FG run wild during the reception. I'm talking not one, but THREE times ran clear across the reception hall screaming "cake, cake!" and stuck her fingers in the cake. Bride's mom had to be the one to go run her down while the mom sat on her lazy ass and watched it all go down.
