At that part where they say "if anyone objects to this union, speak now or forever hold your peace", or whatever it is (I'm not married), and someone objects, do they stop the wedding from proceeding?

Yes. The objection has to be heard & then the couple may or may not proceed, depends on the objection. BTW The bride's parents have the right to beat the living sh*t of the objector, have you priced weddings lately???

I've never been to a wedding where someone actually objects but I imagine if someone did object they would state their reason and probably be escorted out by everyother person at the ceremony. It also depends on the officiant.. but usually they wont completely stop the wedding because what matters is if the Bride and Groom want to get married. I left that part out of wedding not because I thought anyone would object but because I think its tacky to ask at a wedding ceremony.

Depends.
Some couples are opting this be left out of their ceremony; just in case.
The ushers usually escort the objector out the door. If they persist, then the ceremony is stopped to see if the situation can get better under control. Maybe there really IS a reason why the person is objecting, like one of the couple is still married? (that's why the question was initially asked)
Usually it is a scorned or bitter past love.
If the problem escalates, it's not uncommon for the police to be called.

Depends what grounds they are objecting on. If it is because the marriage wouldn't be legal, then yes it would be stopped. If it is for other reasons, then it's probably up to the bride and groom whether or not they wish to continue. (Some might want to reschedule since the ceremony's been 'ruined') There are also probably different laws/rules about it depending on where the wedding is taking place.

Not unless you agree with the objector. Anyone can object at a wedding for any reason but if the bride and groom don't agree with the objector and wish to proceed, then the wedding will continue and the objector would probably then feel like a super buttcheese.

Our minister said that yes, the ceremony stops automatically. The objection needs to be evaluated before the wedding can proceed. Also, he said he wouldn't be able to perform the rest of the wedding that day even...it would have to wait until the next day.

In Catholic weddings, they don't use this line. That's what the Banns are for. They're are published three times, in the weekly bulletin, in the weeks leading up the wedding. Anyone who has an objection should then voice it to the parish Priest.

No, as long as the bride and groom want to continue the ceremony. The person objecting will look like an idiot. Also, depending on where you live, that person could possibly be fined for disrupting a religious ceremony.

Yes, it is halted until the objection can be clarified, or dealt with in some way. Why, do you plan on objecting at someones wedding?

no.. the next thing that happens is about 10 members of the wedding couples will drag the person outside the church and go jump on the person that object. The wedding will preceed.
