19 People Noticed Major Red Flags On Their Friend’s Wedding Day

When the best man’s speech talked about how much he was in love with the groom, how they had been together since long before she showed up, and if there was any truth, justice, or beauty in the world it would have been the two of them being married.

They had split up a couple of years previously because he drank too much and got violent. When they reconnected years later, it was on the understanding that he would never drink again. I found him drinking neat spirits behind a bush at their reception.

My friend was getting married to his neighbour. I hardly knew her, didn’t know he was into her, the wedding was rather sudden. They were both from very religious families, she had gotten pregnant after they had had sex once in “a moment of weakness and drunkenness”, their families pressured them into the marriage. At the wedding, they barely looked at each other, they argued (though with enough taste to do it quietly and away from most guests) over several details, and the bride got very drunk (had I mentioned yet that she was pregnant?). The baby was born with dark hair though both my friend and his wife were blond, DNA test confirmed the baby wasn’t his and they divorced, less than 6 months after the marriage.
