A (2:22)

Really?

C (2:22)

I hid in the hallway with her for probably two and a half out of like the four hour reception. She didn't want to be in there.

A (2:29)

Very few women are calm enough to say that their wedding sucked. Either you can't see it or nobody believes that. Hey, Tara, go ahead.

E (2:39)

Yes, my wedding sucked because my wedding planner messed up my husband first dance with him and I. She made it my dad's dance instead and she forced everyone to leave earlier than the wedding was supposed to end.

A (2:52)

So you think everybody in attendance left thinking that was a really crappy wedding?

E (2:56)

Yes. In fact, my sister in law came up to me and said, wow, why are we being rushed out so much? This wedding's ridiculous. And I was about in tears.

A (3:05)

Oh, I think in these first couple of calls you're gonna see a reoccurring theme here. Mandy, are you still there? My phone went out. They were blaming it pretty much on the planner. Like if people were calling up saying that it was a crappy wedding, it wasn't their fault. It was the planner that is the one that jacked it up.

D (3:21)

I don't know if this is a planner situation or a DJ situation because I've never planned a wedding, but. And I did not believe this for the longest time until I saw a video of it and it was emailed to me and I may be able to find it again. But the dj, while the bride was dancing with her father, played the song I'll make love to you.

C (3:40)

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.

D (3:45)

So he brought him out for the father. No, it was. They brought him out for the father daugh. They brought him out for the father daughter dance and they danced to whatever. And then the dance after that where like the son danced with his mother or whatever. There was some like, maybe the daughter danced with her new father in law or something.

F (4:04)

It was the.

D (4:04)

It was the bride dancing with her father in law and the son dancing with his mother in law and they played I'll make love sick.

A (4:12)

It goes along with the 8:45 email today.

D (4:14)

Yes.

A (4:15)

Hey, Kitty. Good morning. You're on Q100. Hi.

G (4:18)

Hey, Bert, how are you?

A (4:19)

Okay, thank you.

G (4:20)

My wedding absolutely sucked. We spent a ton of money. My mom and my brother who was giving me away, showed up two hours late, so we had to postpone it. The caterer showed up three hours late, so we didn't even eat the food. We ended up sitting on the floor in our apartment after the wedding eating pizza.

E (4:37)

It was.

G (4:37)

The wedding day was horrible.

A (4:40)

Are you married? Yeah. Are you still married?

G (4:42)

Yeah, we're still married. We have three children. We just moved to Atlanta two years ago. And yeah, our marriage is great, but the wedding. Wedding day was horrible. We plan on, like, on our 10th year anniversary, redoing it in Hawaii and, like, not inviting us all.

A (4:55)

Good for you.

C (4:56)

That's such a great idea.

A (4:57)

Years ago, Jen and I attended a wedding that universally. Everybody walked away, said it was the crappiest wedding they've ever been to in their life.

C (5:03)

It was.

A (5:03)

And I wonder if the people that were married at the time had any idea. My guess is they didn't.

C (5:09)

My guess is they didn't either, but it was really unorganized.

G (5:12)

Wow.

A (5:13)

It was the worst wedding ever.

C (5:14)

Yeah. Did that wedding last? That marriage last? Mm. Mm.

A (5:18)

No, we did not.

C (5:18)

Well, then can we talk about the wedding? Like, what made it a bad wedding for you?

A (5:23)

What made it a bad wedding? Everybody sitting at the reception for three hours before the alcohol got there.

C (5:29)

Well, that's probably part of it. Everybody left from the ceremony, went to the reception. There wasn't anything to eat or drink there for a long time. And then the wedding party took a really long time to take photographs and

A (5:38)

everything and remember how many people were in the wedding party.

C (5:41)

There was like, what, 14 on each side or something.

A (5:43)

It was ridiculous.

C (5:44)

It was a huge wedding party. And so everyone that was at the reception was just sitting there, literally waiting with like, not even, like, water to drink for hours before the wedding party got there.

A (5:54)

And the ceremony itself was outside, and they didn't have a contingency plan. And you remember it rained.

C (5:59)

It did rain.

A (5:59)

And one of the older people that was attending, her folding chair folded up with her in it, and she fell to the ground. Every bad cliche that could happen at this wedding happened. It was awful. Hey, Kathryn. Good morning. You're at Q100.

H (6:14)

Hi there.

G (6:14)

How are you?

A (6:15)

All right. What's going on?

H (6:17)

Well, I was just calling in about my crappy reception.

C (6:20)

What happened?

H (6:21)

Well, basically, my parents told me I had a certain budget and whatever I didn't spend, I could keep. And so I decided I didn't want to spend any money. So I asked a friend if she would take pictures. She didn't really know what she was doing. So we got. I would say out of 10 rolls of film, we got maybe 20 pictures that came out. We didn't have a DJ. We asked a friend to be a DJ. We ended up my dad and I dancing to Jamiroquai.

C (6:53)

Oh, no.

H (6:55)

Yeah, we did. Yeah, we did. My dad. So the pictures of my dad is him, like, doing this weird taking off his jacket thing. I don't know. My other idea was that I wanted to change into this cute little dress that I got from J. Crew instead of wearing my wedding dress. Well, I didn't tell anybody that. So when I went upstairs to change, everybody thought I wanted to leave. So they pulled the car around, and we ended up only staying at our reception for about 45 minutes because everybody thought I was ready to leave and pulled the car around and lined up and, you know, they were ready to go.

A (7:32)

Has anyone ever come clean to you and said, you know what? I just got to be totally honest with you, Years later, your wedding sucked.

H (7:37)

No, no, no. They. I have good friends. I guess they'll lie to my face, but, no, I'm pretty sure it wasn't that. That fun.

A (7:43)

There were others that said that. One guy got married underneath a basketball goal. No dancing, no music.

C (7:50)

Aw.

A (7:52)

Photographer made us one hour late to reception.

G (7:55)

Oh.

E (7:56)

Oh.

C (7:59)

I had a good friend who got married in Florida outside in a garden in the hot, you know, humidity, in the heat. And she was running so late that the wedding started an hour late. So the guests had been sitting outside in the beating, beaming sun for an hour. Every man that attended that wedding in a suit was completely drenched, soaked through with sweat by the time she even walked down the street.

D (8:23)

Somebody in this building got their, like, second degree burns on their feet because they wore. It was the groom, and they wore black shoes to the wedding and was standing in the sun, and the sun baked his feet, essentially, and he didn't realize it, and he took him off, and they were all red and blistered, or first. Whatever that least degree is.

A (8:41)

Most of the calls coming in are saying that, yeah, my wedding sucked, but it wasn't my fault. Like, nobody will say, you know what, if it would have just gone the way I had it in my head and I planned it out, it was fine. It was the photographer, it was the planner, it was the dj, but it definitely wasn't my fault if my wedding sucked. The bird show.
