Who's been married the shortest, and what went wrong?
Discussion
A long time ago I worked with a bloke who was at work as much as possible to earn overtime to 'pay for the wedding'.
The wedding was elaborate, so was the reception, and the honeymoon was in an exotic location and lasted a month.
Said bloke came back from the honeymoon, said he'd had a great time and then continued to milk the company overtime budget for all it was worth.
Some months later we needed a driver for a karting event we were going to and asked said bloke if he was willing to do so. He pleaded poverty. I very wrongly assumed that he was saving up to fund the imminent arrival of a kid, asked him if that was the reason and he clammed up. It turned out he'd been seeing a second girl all along, confessed to his wife when they arrived back in the UK, she kicked him out and the overtime money was paying for the divorce.

A FUMING bride DECKED her kilt-wearing hubby when he sat on her knee at the reception and left a SKIDMARK on her wedding dress!
Like all true Scotsmen, Angus McClure, 26, didn’t wear pants under his kilt when he married sweetheart Sarah Grant in Greenock, Renfrewshire.
But his traditionalism led to uproar when he perched his poorly-wiped backside on 24-year-old Sarah’s pristine frock, leaving an unsightly smear.
After Sarah swiped at Angus, the well-refreshed McClure and Grant clans led the reception into bloody mayhem.
A police source said: “I’ve been a police officer in Greenock for nearly 20 years and so I’ve seen a lot of wedding parties turn nasty but this was something else.”
In total, seven people were arrested in the grounds of wedding venue, Greenock Reformed Temperance Hall, and face public order offences.
It’s believed that Angus and Sarah were reconciled when they sobered up, and have no memory whatsoever of the melee.

A colleague at work went to a wedding (i sort of know the guy, but not well enough to get an invite), anyway, the Groom knew his future wife to be was shagging his best mate (and had photo proof) but he kept it quiet and the father of the bride paid for everything, at the reception during the speeches the groom did his speech and under every single persons seat at the reception he had an envelope containing said picture. So with her whole family there, after they all pulled the photo out and told the best mate your welcome to her... And walked out his own reception.
So this thread seems to have turned into "what I wish my wedding day had been like" - consisting of a lot of married men wishing they had either been rammed by or had rammed their best mate and/or the chief bridesmaid.
Or...
It consists of an equal number of non-married men hoping to partake in any of the above activities when it's their wedding.

A freind of mine, right, he went to quite a few weddings, right... I think three. At one he sat next to all his ex's and it was, right, well embarassing, and at another he popped into a room only to have the bride and groom use the bed whilst he hid in the cupboard. Another wedding, scotland I think he said, someone died and he had to go to a funeral in Dartford of all places. He almost got married himself, but said no and his fincee decked him!!!
Someone should make a film about it

So, he takes it out on the Father-in-Law?Sounds a bit of a prick, to me.
A female friend of mine got married recently only to soon find out that her bloke had been living a double life, his "working away" was in fact being shacked up with a woman from his office for half the week, despite owning a house with my friend and going through the whole charade of the wedding. Consequently she is divorcing this tool after a few months of marriage.
I'm still gobsmacked about how he thought he might get away with it, at what point on his wedding day did he not expect to eventually get rumbled? By all accounts his other woman was oblivious to his deceit too - I guess some people are convincing liars.
