"The Marriage Lasted 3 Weeks": 14 Wedding Guest Moments That Scream "This Isn't Going To Last"

Weddings are a beautiful celebration of family and friends coming together to celebrate the love of a long-lasting couple... Or so we all think. We all hope for the best, but sometimes, it's just so unfortunately clear that the newlyweds are not meant for each other.

Over on Reddit , wedding guests are sharing the moments that made them think "this probably won't last" — and wow, the responses are B-R-U-T-A-L.

1. "It was a couple years ago, but the groom was wearing a shirt that said: 'less nagging more gagging' on his wedding day."

"The bride should’ve worn a 'Less negging, more pegging' shirt as a rebuttal."

2. "The bride spent the entire reception complaining to her friends about how she wished she was marrying her ex instead. It was loud enough that multiple tables heard her. They were divorced within 8 months."

— Dear-Arm-9123

3. "When she got mad because someone accidentally called her his ex's name. Instead of calling that person out, she didn't acknowledge the person for the rest of the week (it was a destination wedding). She also didn't like that single women were hugging her husband. And she ignored them as well. Bottling up your feelings and letting stuff fester is a red flag."

4. "The groom slapped my *** at the reception. I was a friend of the bride. They didn't last long."

— Necessary-Arm5025

5. "At the reception, there were two separate fistfights, and the bride disappeared. She was found about an hour and a half later at a red roof inn with the older brother of the best man. The groom was so wasted, he had passed out right after the wedding (he was plastered during the ceremony). When he found out his bride was with another man, he ended up leaving with his ex-girlfriend that he had insisted attend the wedding. This was an expensive wedding, it was over 40k. The marriage lasted 3 weeks."

"*********.😳 Who was more wasted, the groom or the money? LOL."

6. "The mother of the groom speech was all about how heartbroken she was to not be the number one lady in her son's life anymore. It was uncomfortable."

— cinderkitty17

7. "The groom smashed cake in her face after she said not to. You could feel the future divorce in the room."

— Dazzling_Pie_1513

8. "We (a group of women) were high school friends with the groom. He was always a bit of a player, she was never comfortable with us. Fair. We understood even though we never crossed any line with him because he was more like a brother to all of us. She sat us way back, basically in the kitchen. Anyways, she came up to us during the wedding. We talked, congratulated her, and she finished it off by saying: 'I know he was a ho, but not no mo!' We awkwardly laughed it off and all thought it was doomed because of that remark. They were divorced within 2 years. She couldn't trust him. He really wasn't a ho no mo, but I guess she didn't fully believe it."

9. "The fact they were affair partners. They made it four years."

— Sleepyhead_31

"That's..... longer then I'd have thought."

— kdebones

10. "They chose Sarah McLachlan's "Hold On" as their first dance. Nothing says longevity like a song about a spouse dying."

— ex_ter_min_ate_

11. "When they threw the rings at each other in an argument between the ceremony and reception."

— Available_Quote_5567

"Scavenger hunt!!

So thoughtful to add a fun game to the reception. 🤣"

— mochajava23

12. "My cousin overheard a conversation between the bride and (presumably) bridesmaid, where the bridesmaid said something to the effect of 'oh you must be so happy' to which the bride replied 'I just did what I had to do.' The marriage only lasted about 1 or 2 years."

13. "I was dancing with the bride and she said, 'I wish it was you.' We were friends, never in a relationship."

— ProfessionalMango714

14. "I've told this story on a different sub before but I think it's worth retelling. So many moons ago in a small town in the west of Ireland, there was quite a large traveller's wedding and the reception was at the main hotel in the town. The bride's father had brought the cash to pay for the wedding and put it in the inside pocket of his suit. The money got stolen and there was absolute chaos. While watching back the VHS video footage of the wedding, it turns out that the groom was caught stealing the money during the father/daughter dance. I believe she was widowed shortly after."
