Today, 60 guests for my wedding were supposed to arrive to the Bahamas. The first and only hurricane of the season decided to crash my wedding, stranding my mom, maid of honor and best man. No one will be able to attend my wedding, except the other drunken hotel guests. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my wedding is scheduled for next week. Today is also the day my whole family had an epic falling out, resulting in my mother disowning my brother. Apart from having them taking turns sobbing at me through the phone, they're also not coming to the wedding. I paid the hotel rooms in advance. FML
Today, my fiancée told me she can't marry me. Our wedding day is tomorrow and around 20 of our 180 guests attending have travelled half way around the world just for the occasion. FML
Today, it was my wedding. Everyone showed up… except my fiancé. FML
Today, my maid of honor, who offered to take care of my wedding dress before the D-Day, left it near her open window during heavy rain. My dress is now ruined, and she's backed out due to stress. I'm supposed to be getting married tomorrow. FML
Today, my wife and I had to cancel our family vacation to the Atlantis resort in the Bahamas that we had planned for almost two years and spent thousands on, because our son tripped over his suitcase and dislocated his ankle as we were leaving to go to the airport. FML
Today, I found out that I have to reschedule my upcoming honeymoon because my office will be understaffed that week, due to the boss going on vacation right after my wedding. Oh, yeah, and he's in my bridal party. FML
Today, it was my wedding day. Everything went great, except that no one showed up. Apparently, the address of the invitation was typed wrong. 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, I had to cancel my wedding because my fiancé is so hungover from his bachelor party, he's throwing up all over the place, can't stand up straight and is calling me by the stripper's name he met yesterday night. FML
Today, I was told by one of my bridesmaids that she can't afford the travel costs to get to my wedding, after telling me that she didn't need me to organize alternate free travel for her. I'm getting married in less than two weeks. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Gotta say, weddings are planned months in advance before these things can be foreseen.

Well no one forced you to organize a tacky wedding in the Bahamas and make 60 people fly there for you "special I'm-a-princess day". What a stupid and egocentric thing to do anyway...

Someone seems a little bitter

Agreed minus a bit of the bitterness. Destination weddings that are NOT elopements are a selfish burden to place upon one's friends and family.

Unless you have a load of money and you're going to pay to bring the family out. Dad paid to fly the family/ families out when he got remarried.

Happy Hurricane Season 8(

Make it work, OP. Take lots of pics and enjoy. Do some videos while there. When you get back, send everyone a gift bag with a copy of your video. Rated G of course. Then at your 5 year, renew your vows in style. Have fun anyway!!

Don't have a wedding in Mexico in October , that being said ci grays and have a reception when u get home - try to make the best if it even though its hard- a lot of planning goes into a wedding

The bahamas are not Mexico. October is a great month to get married in Mexico. It is the summer you dont want. It rains all afternoon.

Aw, your marriage is doomed. Everyone knows that big, lavish weddings are the only way to have a successful marriage, . . ., no, wait.

Wasn't there insurance you could get for situations like this?
xk75 4
If its such an obvious and likely risk, why would an insurer bet against that? I wonder if the price of the policy would be nearly as much as the coverage the op could expect to recover in the event of the almost inevitable cancellation!

Don't plan a wedding during hurricane season.

This is another reason why destination weddings are a horrible idea.
