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

14.

My niece was 27 & marrying a thrice divorced 42 y/o who has somewhat mysterious means of support. After the rehearsal party I had a few minutes alone with my niece. All I did was ask her, “are you sure you want to marry this man?” The floodgates of emotions erupted, she started bawling, she wasn’t sure, she didn’t know what to do, she hugged me sobbing. I calmed her down, got a glass of wine in her & she told me that about a week ago she had an epiphany, she realized this guy was not right. But now she was afraid to back out with all of the money, travel, planning. Long story short, we had a midnight meeting with her parents & she called off the wedding. Yes, it was very difficult, the groom’s family went ballistic, but all of the people close to her were relieved. Instead of a wedding reception, we had a family reunion with all the food & stuff.

The groom spent most of the day running round like crazy making sure everything was perfect, whilst the bride spend a lot of time (and shared knowing glances) with the best man.

At my best friends wedding, the groom’s dad was dropping some things off at the church. Just to make small talk, I said “Bob, are you ready for the big day”. He said “Well, you know what they say, everyone’s gotta have a first wife.”
