Who doesn't get embarrassed by their parents from time to time? Probably everyone was embarrassed by their parents as a teenager, and then you grow up and learn to embrace their quirks. But sometimes their behavior still makes you cringe really hard! U/cmarie22345 had a brief but interesting story to tell to the r/weddingshaming community. This person's dad just couldn't resist bragging about his kid a bit. Many dads love to do this, it must just come with the territory of being a loving father…

Okay then, Grandma, why don't you give it a whirl and see how the photos turn out?

When everything goes according to plan, a wedding can become the perfect weekend for anyone attending, but if things go wrong, no one is safe. Part of that is due to our cultural and sociological obsession with the importance of weddings. From the flowers to the venue to the music to the food, there is always going to be something that the bride and groom will obsess over and, because of the random nature of life, not everything is going to be perfect. No matter how many times you may try to re…

In this day and age, we don't expect toxic workplace environments to get away with wildly outdated behavior anymore, and yet as much as we'd like to think that progress has been made, unkind and unfair treatment still does happen all the time. Here, we have a young female employee who was on the brink of getting married when the VP of her company organized a disciplinary meeting threatening to fire her if she didn't pull it together at work. Of course, there was no concrete evidence that she wa…

Excuse me, sir. I paid for this seat!

Your priorities should always be centered around your family. You ought to go above and beyond to ensure the happiness of your loved ones. But what would you do if your family openly disregarded your field of employment and treated you like an unnecessary burden? Would you still treat them with the highest regard? The story below is an account of a frustrated cousin. The original poster (OP) volunteered to be the photographer for his cousin's wedding. He felt obligated to help the couple in any…

What's worse than having an awkward first date at a restaurant? Having one at a funeral.

Weddings are an interesting social phenomenon. For starters, the bride and groom's first task is to literally rank their family and closest friends by order of importance to them in order to form their bridal parties, almost like we're back on MySpace with our Top Friends ranked and audaciously on display… From there, everyone else gets a rank, too, with what table they're seated at the reception, letting everyone know loud and clear “where they sit" on your social ladder. If you're seated at a…

Honestly, has upper or regional management ever volunteered to fill in for a weekend shift? This wouldn't be the first time that an upper manager pulled something like this, going with the old “you have to make sacrifices to go along with your rank” and ignoring the fact that they're not actually paying their “manager” the industry standard for their role, let alone enough to match the gravitas that they're placing on it. Further, they're conveniently forgetting the fact that they're a manager,…

This couple wanted to mix things up for their wedding, but they had no idea what their guests had planned for them. As told by a wedding coordinator, this story follows a couple who seemed to have it all figured out for their big day. But on the actual day of their nuptials, everything fell apart. This wedding coordinator thought that things were running smoothly in the weeks leading up to the wedding. They shared that there were no issues with vendors, guests, or the couple. They really though…

Many a friendship has been damaged by a bridezilla, and this one is no exception.

“It's YOUR wedding. Full stop.”

“You must fit into my childhood expectations"

It's nearly impossible for a wedding to go entirely according to plan, but these ceremonies really went south in the most unexpected ways. As someone who attended more weddings last year than one ever should, I can attest to the fact that no matter how prepared the couple is, there will always be some kind of inevitable drama. It could be a family member going rogue or a force majeure situation. It could be that someone gets sick or the florist messes something up. Anyone who has been involved…

Cruise ships: floating palaces packed with tourists and plague that light up the oceans and terrorize whatever small port they happen to land in. You'd have to consider yourself mighty important indeed to think that one of these floating fortresses would forestall its scheduled course in order to accommodate your unfortunately entitled person... Sure, let's leave 3999 people waiting while the 4000th takes their time making your way back to the dock according to their own time. Sure, it's a toug…

Nobody knows how to ruin a wedding celebration quite like a Monster-in-law.
