There is no shortage of rude and crude suggestions to the internet question, “What’s the worst thing you could do at a wedding?” However, there are plenty of legit responses too. So here are ten of the worst things you can do at a wedding, according to Reddit.<\/p>\n

1. Propose<\/h2>\n

The number one-voted response for terrible things to do at someone’s wedding is to propose. One clarified, “Unless it’s something that the bride and groom<\/a> are in on, like one of those pretends to throw the bouquet.<\/p>\n

Then give it to a specific person, where they get proposed to kinda setups where it’s OBVIOUS that the bride and groom approve, then it’s a hard no.”<\/p>\n

2. Placing Bets On How Long It Will Last<\/h2>\n

Somebody shared a story from “Back in the days of VHS.” They explained their friend was getting married, and he and their mutual friends placed bets on how long it would last.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, the bride and groom spent most of the time arguing at the reception<\/a> behind their big chairs. At some point, the guests must express their good wishes to the newlyweds<\/a> when the camera person comes round to each table.<\/p>\n

Finally, they continued, “The groom’s dad looks into the camera and says, ‘All I can say, son is good luck. You’re going to need it.’ Rumor of this gets to the bride, and the reception disintegrates into chaos. The marriage lasted 17 months. I won the pool, $1200.”<\/p>\n

3. Playing the Wrong Song<\/h2>\n

Somebody’s son explained that at the wedding<\/a> of his mother’s second husband, the Dj played Queen’s “Another One Bites the Dust.” Another shared that they attended a wedding where the very first song<\/a> played was “Rolling in the Deep” by Adele. They expressed laughing so hard they excused themselves from the reception hall.<\/p>\n

Finally, a third volunteered, “The terrible DJ at my mum and stepdad’s wedding played “Band of Gold.” The song is about a husband leaving a wife. He played it more than once.”<\/p>\n

4. Saying the Wrong Name<\/h2>\n

One user commented, “Take thee, Rachel,” before another\u00a0Friends<\/em>\u00a0fan jumped in with, “Repeat after me: I Ross… Take thee,\u00a0EMILY!<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

While nobody outright said that saying the wrong name at the altar would be terrible, this reference to\u00a0Friends<\/em>, when Ross says Rachel instead of Emily at his wedding, summed it up beautifully.<\/p>\n

5. Making Any Kind of Announcement<\/h2>\n

Many people in the thread agreed that in addition to proposing<\/a>, announcing an engagement or pregnancy is tacky and the worst thing to do at someone else’s wedding.<\/p>\n

One clarified, “Making any big announcement. You just found out you’re pregnant? Fantastic, make the announcement any other time than on someone else’s special day.”<\/p>\n

6. Injecting Yourself Into Wedding Pictures<\/h2>\n

Running around and ensuring that you’re in all of the photos is something that several Redditors noted as the worst. One user elaborated, “Injecting yourself into the wedding photos<\/a> with stupid faces or dumb hats or whatever is terrible.”<\/p>\n

7. Making Yourself the Center of Attention<\/h2>\n

Many people voted that if you’re being loud and disruptive during the wedding ceremony<\/a>, you’re doing terrible things. Especially if you object “jokingly” when the officiator expresses, “Speak now. Or forever hold your peace.”<\/p>\n

Others added that being distracting during speeches or giving an impromptu speech when you’re not part of the wedding party is rude.<\/p>\n

8. Fighting<\/h2>\n

Several people suggested that fighting is the worst thing you can do at a wedding. One added that arguments are typical when you bring families together.<\/p>\n

And people who intentionally avoid others cannot help but snap, especially when you throw in alcohol<\/a> and the high energy of the wedding. However, physical fights are on another level of straight trash.<\/p>\n

9. Leaving Children Inadequately Supervised<\/h2>\n

Leaving children unsupervised is one of the worst things to do at a wedding. One confirmed, “SO MANY of the memorable accidents that had happened to anyone in my family as children had happened during weddings while adults focused on the event for a split second too long.<\/p>\n

My concussion occurred at a wedding when I fell off the new stage of the Legion pretending to be a rock star. My brother got a black eye at a wedding when he ran around on the dance floor like a maniac and caught an accidental elbow.<\/p>\n

Stepsister’s jammed fingers? Wedding. Cousin’s broken collarbone? Wedding. Godchild almost drowned? Wedding. WATCH YOUR KIDS.”<\/p>\n

10. Wearing White<\/h2>\n

Lastly, according to many in the thread, wearing white<\/a>, especially a white dress, is the worst thing to do to a bride on her wedding day<\/a>. One poor woman shared, “I made this mistake once.<\/p>\n

I wore a white tank top and a white skirt because I thought it would be hot out. Now, I didn’t know better back then. I thought it wasn’t great, but not that bad, and no one pointed it out to me.<\/p>\n

But I was immediately uncomfortable when we arrived at the wedding, and the bride wore a casual white sundress. I expected a ballgown and not almost the same outfit I was wearing. I still cringe hard about it now.”<\/p>\n

What do you think? Did Reddit<\/a> get this right, or do you think there is something on this list that doesn’t belong?<\/p>\n
