As a bartender, I've attended hundreds of weddings. My favourite was held on a VERY hot day, and the multi-level cake began to lean, and lean a little more, and a little more, and then the top fell off. There was a sugar ornament of a bride and groom on top, and the groom's head broke off! We spent twenty minutes trying to find it!

Worst was I was a groomsman. The party co-ordinators put all of us on the dance floor and put brown bags on our heads. They explained it would be a dance contest and if you bump into someone else you and the one you bump into lose, $500 to the winner. They played "Humpty Dance" and called out the sprinker, lawnmower, etc etc. I didn't know everyone else took off their bags and left the stage at song's start and I was up there alone. Made for some great laughs as my expense. Needless to say I got pretty polluted after I figured it all out =)

Went to an outdoor wedding in a beautiful and a horrible storm came down 2 hours prior to the reception! They were able to put up tents, but damage was done. Wet mantles, muddy grass, a candleiere made a short-circuit and energy went out, so there was no band! The funniest, the bride walking around with her white dress all full of mud!
Another one, a couple of drunk, still funny, guys took over the stage with the band and did their thing. Such act was not funny for the father of the bride. Thing is, the father of the bride was the Secretary of Treasure and he personally took them off the stage!

my first wedding was in the 80's...I had a fru-fru dress with a big bow on my butt and a huge train behind it.
The inlaws put their car in the ditch on the way to the church. They waited for the tow truck and arrived ONE HOUR late. It was meant to be a candle light wedding, beginning at 6:30 pm. It started at 7:30, no one lit the candles so the lights stayed on.
They forgot to bring the aisle runner down until I was 1/2 way down the aisle and then expected me to back up in my ridiculous dress with the long ruffly train.
The reception started late (of course) but the DJ had been playing for an hour before we got there. He stayed to the contract- played music for 3 hours and left- JUST as the party was starting.
The firehall where we held it insisted that we have 2 ladies from the auxiliary there (for insurance purposes). These ladies were paid $10/hour and all they did was drink our alcohol and then proceeded to steal 2 cases of our champagn.
When it was time to leave the reception, everyone had gone home except for me, my new husband, our best man and the maid of honor. The ladies from the firehall said "you can't leave, the kitchen is not clean."
So....we proceeded to do dishes in our wedding clothes. Apparantly, the ladies we had to pay did not clean...or or anything except drink.

LOL!
Once at a wedding reception, two drunk relatives went up and sang Sugar Sugar by the Archies.
At another wedding, my Asian aunt was marrying a Caucasian. We gave him a dish of Asian delicacies (like balut and durian, for example) and we made him try them all in front of all the guests.
At another wedding, the groom stood on a chair, in his tux. The bride had to get an uncooked egg from the bottom of his leg sleeve ALL THE WAY TO THE OTHER leg sleeve! So you can guess where the egg has to pass, and what the bride had to touch...
Once, the bride had to sit in on a chair (with her white dress on), with her legs spread open. The groom had to go under there and take off her garter.
I go to a lot of weddings :)

I once went to this fancy, shmancy rich folk banquet hall that always has been way overpriced and over-rated, and they had waxed the floor to a point you could not even walk on it. Many people avoided dancing because of it and all you saw was people "catching" themselves all night long. Well sure enough after several successful attempts at staying on my feet I flew up into the air and landed flat on my back. Everyone rushed to pick me up and I said to my husband I've had enough of this...let's go home! Sheesh...I had a good mind to sue those idiots...if that's a rich folk's idea of a fun time they can stuff it...they were friends of hubbys....you needed a microscope to see the food on the plate and at $200/person too...I could have thrown 7-course meal for that price at a nice fine Italian banquet hall for half that price and on top of it all had to go to a chiropractor for a month before I was feeling back to normal.

At my September wedding we were all having a great time at the reception my sister went home her house was only a miniute away to check on her little dog. When she walked into the house she stepped in dog poop and slipped on the floor. She had to go back to the wedding with poop stains on the back of her dress. It was definitly a night to remember

I was at my half-brother's wedding and I was upset because I wasn't part of the wedding party so when my sister-in-law tossed the bouquet, I literally jumped up and snatched it (it's on tape) without realizing what would happen next...
Luckily since I was only 14, one of his friends loosely pretended to be me when the guy who caught the garter was supposed to either put it on me or take it off of me...I forget which it was because this was 4 years ago.

At my beach wedding, these strangers pulled up in a SUV, got out, set up chairs, and proceeded to pop open some beers DURING THE CEREMONY. They ended up in a few of the wedding photos! It's actually pretty funny looking back on it though..

Well, my fiance and i had two to go to on the same day, and at the second one I made a speach, and,,, said the wrong names at the end.The worst part was that the couple that got married first was the brides x best friend cuz she married her x fiance, basically she had no idea that they were getting married, needless to say the room instantly got quiet.

Compelled to answer because that "event" is so funny! I've never been to a wedding. I'm not even sure about my own, since I can't seem to remember it.
