111 Wedding Fails That Made It To The ‘Best Of All Time’ Shaming List

Weddings mean different things to different guests. Some come for the food, others to celebrate the happy couple, and a few are there just to judge. But sometimes, they don’t even have to look too hard—some weddings are just so disastrous, they practically invite criticism.

Today, we’ve rounded up some of the best—or, should we say, worst—wedding fails that got roasted online. Because, let’s be honest, what’s a wedding without a little drama to go with the dessert?

There are so many things that can go wrong during a wedding. Sure, couples might find themselves fretting over the most outlandish scenarios, like what happens if the venue spontaneously bursts into flames or if the food mysteriously vanishes into thin air.

While these nightmare scenarios are highly unlikely, let’s face it: no wedding is entirely issue-free. From a runaway flower girl to a DJ who can’t find the right playlist, unexpected hiccups can pop up at any moment.

One of the biggest headaches a couple might face on their wedding day is getting their loved ones to the right place at the right time. Whether it’s a late arrival at the ceremony or guests wandering off during cocktail hour, these little hiccups can really throw off the entire schedule.

Imagine this: you’ve planned your first dance to take place outside at 6 PM, perfectly timed to catch the beautiful sunset as your backdrop. But as the moment approaches, you realize guests are still trickling in—some weren’t even aware of the timing. Your dream of dancing under the golden glow of the setting sun starts to slip away, leaving you feeling a bit deflated.

#8 Real Life Soap Opera

#9 Mother Of Bride Wearing Bridal Gown!

One of the easiest things to do to avoid such a situation is sending out reminders to your guests a few days before the big day. You can include details about the timing in your invitations, but a friendly reminder via text or email can help keep everyone on the same page.

#12 There’s Still Time To Change Your Decor

Another thing that can be a complete disaster is when you can’t get the photos you planned and dreamt of. This could happen due to various reasons, like maybe time slipped away from you.

Or you were not able to find your loved ones for those important group shots. Whatever the reason, ending up without the photographs you envisioned can be a real letdown.

Susie from Revelry Events offers valuable advice: “The best way to make sure this doesn’t happen is to communicate with your photographer. Send them a list of all the group shots you want to take plus the detail shots you don’t want to be missed (you worked hard on those place cards!)”

“Work on the schedule together so they know what’s coming up and when to be ready to click. Also, designate some of your bridal party or ushers to help corralling the guests you need for group shots.”

#18 Indoor Fireworks Before First Dance

Weddings and family drama sometimes go hand in hand, right? For instance, your Aunt Karen decides she’s had enough of Uncle Bob and refuses to sit next to him. The best thing you can do in such situations is stay calm, smile, and find a new seating arrangement. Sometimes all you need is a quick and easy solution to save your special day.

Now, when it comes to food, chances are someone might change their mind at the at the last minute. A guest who RSVP’d for non-veg can suddenly have an epiphany and decide to turn vegan two months before your wedding. What do you do? It’s always smart to have a backup plan with a safe food option on hand—something simple, like a veggie pasta or salad, just in case.

Oh, and let’s not forget those moments when you might realize your wedding dress isn’t as perfect as you imagined—it’s creased, stained, or maybe even worse. But remember, panicking won’t do you any good. Take a deep breath and focus on quick fixes.

While some things on your wedding day are within your control, others are not—like the weather! Whether it’s blazing sun, a chill in the air, or unexpected rain, these elements can throw a wrench in your plans. But don’t let that spoil your mood.

Kate Wood, a bridal fashion and beauty expert for The Knot, suggests you should try to embrace the rain instead of letting it dampen your spirits. “Send a bridesmaid or close friend out to buy a dozen golf umbrellas for you and your bridal party (even better if you can get them in your wedding colors!). To ensure your hair stays put, ask your hairstylist to accompany you to the ceremony for a last-minute touch-up. When it’s time to take pictures, grab a pair of cute rain boots and a matching umbrella for a romantic photo shoot.”
