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, I found my two best friends making out with each other. Not a big deal, right? Wrong. Today was my wedding day. One of the friends was my maid of honor, the other was my groom. FML
Today, at our wedding, instead of saying "I do", my fiancé paused before saying, "I can't do this", stepped down from the altar and proposed to my maid of honor. When she obviously refused, he ran from the venue bawling. He's not returning my calls. FML
Today, I found out that my now-ex slept with his not-so-ex the day before our wedding. FML
Today, I married the love of my life. I was ecstatic until the wedding reception, where my new husband got drunk and started crying about how he'd been "forced" into marrying me. FML
Today, my fiancé's best friend, who will be our best man at our wedding, decided to confess his feelings for me and tell me how he's always dreamed of us eloping together. The wedding is going to be awkward. FML
Today, I married the man of my dreams. While I was being driven to our wedding reception, I checked my Facebook. My husband had just updated his status to "Me and the bitch just got hitched." FML
Today, I overheard my best friend laughing and calling my fiance lame and stupid, all because he proposed to me with a bouquet instead of a ring. And here I was about to ask if she would be my maid of honor… FML
Today, at my anniversary party, and in front of all our friends, I accidentally called my husband-to-be by my ex-boyfriend's name. FML
Today, I was the best man at my longtime friend’s wedding. I got so into talking about our shared memories over the years that I accidentally called his bride by his ex-girlfriend’s name at the end of my toast. FML
Today, I belched. In the middle of my wedding vows. FML

At least you found out before you were married.

I am so sorry this happened. I am struggling to believe it is true because it is so horrific. and wouldn't the priest refuse/would your family stand by and watch? it sounds too much like a film. wouldn't she want her family at her wedding? would she have it spur of the moment like that? i certainly wouldn't be paying if I were you

I call bullshit on this one

I'm going to play Devil's Advocate and call BS on this FML. For the following reasons: 1.) No self-respecting clergyman would allow substitutions. Even if it was a civil ceremony, I would think the person presiding over it wouldn't do that. And how much of the ceremony and reception was bought and paid for by the bride or her family? I'm sure the bride's family would have told the groom and replacement bride where to shove it. 2.) The marriage license itself doesn't allow for substitutions either, and the person presiding over it wouldn't allow it unless the license reflected the parties actually getting married. On the off-chance I'm wrong, then indeed, FYL. Otherwise, I am calling complete and utter nonsense on this FML.

I think everyone is missing the most important part: what about the wedding gifts? Does the new couple get to keep the gifts? Does the bride have to write thank-you notes? I’ll bet the maid of honor’s family was pretty pissed that they missed her wedding.

This can only happen in a tv show. Are you stuck in one?

Hmm. Its a rule that all FML's must start with Today and end with FML. So maybe.. During OP's wedding ceremony (possibly not actually today), the Groom left OP and then later married the ex Maid of Honor "today" aaaaand maybe I'm overthinking it. Please follow up OP.

I didn't think of that, good point!

There's also a character limit. But maybe it should have been better had she said "they're getting married instead." But good point.

Did she ask you to be her maid of honor?

He wasn’t for you it’s sad you found out last minute but at least you didn’t marry him

Did your minister marry them right there and then?

Look at the biright side. You missed a bullet, here. You were minutes away from being married to a person who would do that. Now, instead, they're married to someone who treats their friends that way. I know it's awful, but at least you're not married to _that guy_. And now you know that a back-stabber is going to be out of your life, too, I presume. Gotta say, this is one of the ones I hope the original poster is making up.
