You know the infamous, Speak now or forever hold your peace?

Well what if someone actually did stand up and say, "I object!" And then they explain why the disprove of said marriage. What happens after that? Is the wedding called off? Is the refuter thrown out?

Not much happens (I've been to a wedding where it actually did happen) The guy was an old boyfriend of the bride and said she couldn't marry the man she was marrying because he felt she still loved him. Apparently he had run into her during her bachelorette party and she had told him that she missed him and all the great times they had when they were together and he ASSumed it meant that she still loved him. The bride told him he was wrong, told everyone in the church he was wrong and said the only man she loved was standing next to her at the altar. The wedding went on from there and the bride and groom have been married for almost 40 years. The other guy sadly went home and committed suicide.

It all depends what the reason for the objection is... If it is a major reason then yes the wedding can be called off and cannot happen... This comes down to what the ones who are at the alter decide to do with what is said.

That is part of an old marriage vow. That was not said at my wedding, I wrote most of the words for the minister. I would say, that they would be listen to, and every one would gasp. If they made a disturbance, I am sure they would be escorted out, after all the groom has a room full of his buddies there.

Quoting from another person's (weddrev) post on a similiar thread:

"IF it happens usually the officiant suggests the offender be taken outside or goes outside with them to find out the reason. In rare instances the police have had to be called. Usually it's a digruntled ex.

There are some that are opting to have this removed from the ceremony. Used to be that because they didn't have the means of communication it was asked to the guests in case they knew that either person didn't have a legal right to marry."

Well, if you're watching a cheesy movie or reading a fiction, it's a terrible ordeal. In reality, only a maniac would do something like that and then this maniac would either go home in embarassment or be taken away to a special kind of hospital by the police.

I had that part taken out of the ceremony or was it the obey part. Oh well. From what i understand they try to get to the root of the problem and see if the bride and groom want to continue. Good Luck

I haven't heard that in awhile, although I've threatened to say it to a few friends while razzing them before they got married. "I'm going to stand up and say, "They can't get married because I'm having relations with the....."". Sad thing, they actually believe I would do that. lol

I would think that the wedding would continue
