Today, I had my wedding at 11 a.m. so that I could spend a lot of time with my friends and family. Everyone left within 4 hours. FML

Today, it was my wedding. Everyone showed up… except my fiancé. FML
Today, it was the day of my wedding. I had a massive headache a couple of hours before the ceremony so I decided to take a nap. I told my brother to wake me up an hour before it started. He forgot. Now everyone thinks I ran out on my wife. FML
Today, my wife and I went to a wedding. At one in the morning, when the cheese was being served, we were starting to fall asleep at the table, so we went to our car to take a short nap. When we woke up it was 5 a.m., and the party was over. FML
Today, after almost two days, I finally fell asleep, during my husband's vows, on our wedding day, in front of 250 guests. FML
Today, I accidentally slept in two hours later than I was supposed to. Today is my wedding day. FML
Today, I got married. My sister and father could not attend because they already had plans. My sister went to the mall with her friends, and my dad went to a pool party. FML
Today, my fiancée decided to go on a "vacation." Our wedding is tomorrow. FML
Today, I'm sitting at home, alone, playing video games. My wedding is tomorrow afternoon. None of my bridesmaids wanted to hang out tonight. 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, I woke up a little after seven. I felt sick to my stomach because last night was my bachelor party and I drank more than I ever have before. I checked my phone, and I had received 42 missed calls. It was seven o'clock pm. Today was my wedding day. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Typically guests don't want to make a wedding (or most any event for that matter) an all day affair, so don't feel too badly, OP.

Wedding guests often don't plan to stay too long because they feel the newlyweds will want some alone time together. At least they came out for your special day, and you got to see them and then spend some time with your new spouse!

I'm assuming with an 11am wedding, you fed them lunch. If you wanted them to stay the whole day, yet they left by 3pm, I'm also assuming that you weren't feeding them dinner. I wouldn't stay all day and evening either.

In America, most wedding receptions don't go past a few hours. It is not common to make it an all day event. Heck, most celebrations don't go on for a full day. I am not sure why you are so surprised, seeing as you are from the States too. Most people have things and lives to take care of and don't usually put them on hold. So it is neither YDI and FYL.

Hey, four hours is still a pretty long time, all things considered. And at least you got to enjoy the rest of the afternoon and evening with your new spouse. One-on-one time is important, too. ;)

Well at least they showed up.

YDI. People don't generally want to be at a wedding all day, and if it's a big one, you can't get real time with that many people. It's up to you to make time for them.

i understand wanting to spend a lot of time with them on your special day but 11am is early for a wedding in my opinion and honestly wouldnt want to spend my entire day there. i hope you had a great time regardless though. Spend time with your new hubby and maybe go out with friends and new hubby again later in the evening. :)

Seriously. Who wants to close out a venue when you've been there since 11am.

I guess we wait for your spouse's submission "I just got married and my bride would rather spend her wedding day with her friends and family than with me, FML"
