Today, I got married. The minister pronounced us husband and wife using our first names. Except he used my husband's ex-wife's name. I happened to glance at my mother-in-law who was almost in tears from laughing so hard. FML

OP here! So, this was several years ago. Apparently his family didn't want want him to marry me and never wanted him to divorce his first wife. His father is the one who performed the wedding. He called me the wrong name several times during the ceremony. I don't know if he did it on purpose or not. Friends later tell me it wasn't just his mother that was laughing but many members of his family but I just couldn't hear them. H

That's really messed up, OP. Some terrible in-laws you have. I hope things are better now.

That mother in law needs some one to tell her that, thats ain't funny. But it is actually hurtful

Never let family run the ceremony. Totally jacked up.

Just as long as your name is the one used at the honeymoon. That's where it counts.

Sounds like some interesting family dynamics that you may not have been privy too before the wedding. I hope all is well now, but I must admit it I got a good laugh and an oh my:)

"I Ross, take the Rachel... Emily. Take the Emily"

What an idiot!
