Today, at my wedding, the minister forgot to skip the "Does anyone object?" part. My mother stood up and gave a lengthy reason, which caused my future in-laws to start shouting. It turned into a small riot, and no, we're not married now. FML

Autumn: Leaves and Laughter
When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, I got married and my mom refused to be there because my dad, whose guts she hates, was there even though I promised repeatedly that I would keep them apart. I couldn't do the mother-son dance. She keeps insisting that it was a "lapse in judgment." Yeah, like we're really going to be able to have a do-over. FML
Today, it was my wedding day. Midway through the ceremony, my visibly drunk uncle stood up and denounced the minister for "preaching yer god shite where it weren't never be welcome". FML
Today, during my wedding ceremony, the groom-to-be found it appropriate to blurt out about an ongoing affair with my maid of honor. They got married instead. FML
Today, my parents had a huge fight because my mom found out my dad was cheating on her. They screamed for half an hour. Right in the middle of my wedding. FML
Today, it was my wedding day. When my soon-to-be-husband was saying his vows, he didn't say my name. He said his mother's. FML
Today, I was supposed to get married. I called it off only 20 minutes before the ceremony was supposed to begin because I saw my fiance punch his own mother in the face. FML
Today, I was at my sister's wedding. Everything was going flawlessly. That is, until our visibly drunk mom started a punch-up over who got to cut the cake first. FML
Today, it was supposed to be my wedding but my fiancé insisted we be married by his childhood priest, a real bible thumper. This arsehole tried to change our vows at the altar and told me wives should know their place, so I slapped him and the wedding is delayed until we get a new priest. FML
Today, my family got mad at me for eloping and not inviting them to my wedding. Even though they admitted they wouldn't have gone anyway. FML
Today, it was my wedding day. With my best friend as the priest, she asked, "Do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?" After saying I do, she then turned to him and asked, "Do you want to bang my friend?" Everyone laughed, except my already disapproving father. FML

Why not? You don't need to let foolish families ruin your relationship. Go away and get married somewhere exotic, alone. :D

Damn in-laws, or maybe in this case out-laws.

This FML gets worse and worse as you read on. I feel so bad for you OP! I suggest having another wedding without them?
zandalee 19
Agree! I eloped for this very reason 23 years ago. Still have a screwed up relationship with my parents over their bloody attitude about the love of my life... If all else fails, cut them out for a while. Hopefully then they may see some sense.

My step dad's mom bullied my mom into getting married at their cabin on a lake. My mom wanted to get married at Disneyland, but my step dad's mom called her up and said, "you can't elope." It's not eloping if you know about it.
DLBL 22
Married at Disneyland? Is she 12?

I hear eloping to Vegas can be nice this time of year

What the actual hell?

That actually doesn't make sense

This is exactly why some people have to elope. I'm sorry OP!

Sometimes it's just better to have a wedding without the family, and have a party after that with the family.
Harpy20 24
Exactly what my husband and I did. There's nothing to screw up and since you're already married, they're forced to be respectful even if they don't want to be.

Kind of sad though huh...

If you needed to prompt the minister to skip that part, you probably knew that your mom did not approve. You should have just gotten it done at City Hall. Your mom may have ruined your life or saved your life. We don't know enough to say which is the case.
_DudeGuy_ 16
She could have gone to city hall, or just not invite her mother.
perdix 29
#14, not inviting the mother is often a hard trick to pull off. I'm really curious if the mother was really helping her daughter or just being a selfish bitch. I doubt the OP would tell us the truth.

OP didn't prompt the minister to skip that part, he forgot.

The minister usually always says the "does any one object?" part. He forgot that they asked him not to. How else would he know he wasn't supposed too?

I don't know about most people but they never said that at my wedding and I didn't ask them not too. It's very old fashioned to ask if anyone objects in my opinion and I think it's rude. If someone really thinks you shouldn't get married they should bring it up before the special day! This FML frustrates me cause if everyone was yelling and it was total pandemonium I would just say forget this I hate you all throw down my bouquet and run off! Poor OP :(

Please tell me someone was filming this.

#10, Somebody filmed this! If don't if this is true or not, but you seemed to want to hear this. Making people happy is what I'm all about :D
