12. The Ceremony Song Mix Up

"I got married on a little overlook of a mountain range in Santa Fe. I “hung out” in a little tent behind everyone, but also up on a hill, during the processional, etc. Classical guitarists were to play a song and then I was to walk down the aisle with my dad to another song (my mom is really into music). But the wedding planner forgot to tell the officiant that was the plan, so when the “solo” song started up, she had everyone stand up, turn around and face the little tent. My dad just stood in front me, blocking me from view, while this darned song played with everyone just watching us. THEN the real song played and I walked down the aisle."

13. The Flying Veil

"The weather was very windy during our outdoor ceremony and, about three minutes into the wedding, my veil took fight! The wind pulled it out of my hair and it sailed off into the sky. It was actually beautiful to watch! My hair was fine sans veil and I just laughed as it flew away. It was truly a special moment and all night everyone was talking about the “flying veil!”"

14. The Interesting Gift Choice

"I had a family member that I invited write in their own plus one. I only invited them, not a date because I didn't think they were dating anyone anymore. Instead of speaking up, I let it slide to not cause any drama within the family. The only thing more awkward than that - the gift they gave....a black, ceramic vase (I think?) with a lid. It looked like an urn."
