My former brother-in-law was on TLC's A Wedding Story. Everything about it was odd, the dresses, the cupcake 'cake', the gloves... I am glad I wasn't invited LOL

I went to a co-worker's wedding in a small, un-named town in the Philadelphia suburbs. It was an out-of-body experience. Looking back, I think some of the strangeness was budget-related, but some of it was .... I'm at a loss for words.
The groom walked the bride down the aisle.
The bride wore purple.
The bride's daughter wore white.
The "reception site" was in the middle of the woods.
There was a nacho bar during the cocktail hour.
The cocktail hour consisted of plastic buckets filled with ice and canned beer. Boxed wine was on a nearby table.
The wedding cake was carrot -- and it wasn't big enough to serve everyone who attended the reception.
The music seemed to be playing at a slow speed. Someone at my table asked the DJ about it; he said he didn't have enough music to play throughout the reception without playing repeats.
There were no wedding favors. A few months after the wedding, the groom gave all of us in the office a CD with their wedding photos on it.
And we never got a thank-you note for the checks we slipped into the cards we left for the happy couple.
That happy couple, by the way, divorced less than two years later.

The strangest had to be my uncle's. Who is formerly a priest, and who left the priesthood because of this woman...anyway, they met because she was his masseuse, and her other job was as a belly dancer.
What I thought was strange...
she made her own cake, and was stressed out about it the whole time.
She had it at a Chinese restaurant, with only Chinese food- to feed my uncle's family who is from a tiny town in Texas, and so they didn't eat anything...
Halfway through the reception she changed...into her belly dancing costume, and proceeded to dance. So she was not only the bride, but the entertainment as well....And it was skanky belly dancing. All over my other 5 uncles.
Yeah...I thought it was weird...

The bridal party, including the bride, walked down the aisle in utter silence. I guess they couldn't afford music. If they'd asked me ahead of time, I would have been happy to push the button on a boom box- even recorded music is better than nothing!

A woman was stripped accidentally when she tried to catch the bouquet thrown by the wed couple. Her gown went down the moment she jumped up, so everybody around her can see her half-naked.

The bride and groom wore slippers that looked like bears. It was stupid.
I didn't attend this one but I know a girl who made her reception a pot luck. Tacky.

At the reception one of the groomsmen gave the mother of the bride a strip tease/lap dance.

One wedding I attended had belly dancers who did a performance with swords on top of their heads!
