45 Jaw-Dropping Moments A Wedding Guest Said, "I Object" And Changed Everything

Well, my grandparents got married at her daughters home (both were widowed) and right when they asked that question, the phone rang (this was the late 80s)
To his credit, the rabbi said “even in this modern age, we simply cannot accept objections via telephone” and went on with the wedding!

My Mother loudly proclaimed we wouldn’t last 12 months. We didn’t: 41 yrs and still going.

Well apparently I shouted “NO” at my own parents wedding…I was only 18 months old. They probably should have listened to me tho….Divorced when I was 5.

I had to go to a wedding with my mom. One of the brides was a good friend and coworker of my mom's. This was a lesbian wedding. The other bride (not my mom's coworker) had her dad object saying "I didn't raise my daughter to be a [gay]." He got an absolute beatdown as his daughter cried. I don't understand why you would do this to your own daughter.

It was a train wreck.

Bride was so much better than the creep she was supposed to marry. She planned to leave him but she felt like she had to marry him because she got a positive pregnancy test. During the ceremony his own brother objected that he had tampered with her birth control to force her to stay with him.

He came with receipts too. Text messages and voicemails bragging about how it worked, she was pregnant and how he was cheating on her, finally the dudes mom tried to stop him but he snapped at her that she was an enabling and he wasn’t going to let this go on.

The bride said she wasn’t going to marry him and us bridesmaids grabbed her and bolted.

She ended up miscarrying shortly after that, so no coparenting relationship needed to happen and he’s completely stonewalled from all information on her.

Not very juicy, but very adorable. At a co-workers wedding, their 3 year old objected because he didn't want Daddy to marry Mommy, HE wanted to marry Mommy!

Yessss and it was the bride's sister!! She slept with the groom the NIGHT BEFORE!!

A cute one I saw:

Pastor: “…Speak now, or forever hold your peace!”

Little kid, maybe 6 years old. “Stop!” He then ran up to the groom handed him a small jewelry box, and said, “You forgot the ring.” The kid wasn’t loud, but you could hear a pin drop in the church.

He ran back to his seat, and at his mother’s prompting, he said, “Okay you can go on.”

Everyone just lost it laughing, and it was a couple of minutes before the pastor could continue.

I'm just going to say when this question was asked at our wedding my husband's friends got up and barred the doors at the registry office.
I'm very very estranged from my parents but they tried to sabotage our relationship in every way possible, cancelled our church wedding, rang the dress shop and cancelled my gown, then as the coup de grace on our wedding day we got the summons for custody of my son.
We weren't risking it.
29 years this year, those doors banging still make us laugh

I was in my good friend’s wedding, and she and her now mother-in-law have never liked each other. When the pastor asked the objection question, my friend whipped her veiled head around, pointed at her soon-to-be MIL, and said, “Now you hush, Margaret!” Margaret did indeed hush. Twenty years later and they still hate each other though lol.

My friend is a wedding pianist and once some one objected. The vicar took the bride, groom and his side piece into the vestry for a chat while my friend furiously free styled on the organ to fill the time. Eventually the vicar came out and announced there would not be a wedding!

I listened to a Reddit story podcast where someone did object but it was a prank between the groom and groomsmen but the priest actually didn’t approve of the wedding ceremony going further.. the bride was pissed and I think she left him.

The first time I got married, I was 21 and my wife was 20. In our country she was not old enough to sign her wedding certificate, her mother had to sign for her.

Also, she was very visibly pregnant and we both were stressed and had been crying.

Each one of us had decided not to get married and then changed our minds in the months leading to the actual wedding. It was well known to us and everyone else that we were only doing it because of the pregnancy.

So during the ceremony, one of her uncles said he objected, for all the reasons mentioned above.

We actually stopped, and she got to another room and talked with her family for some 30 minutes.

Then they came out and said we should go through with it, and we did. We lasted less than 1 year before the divorce.

I was five, and at the time, I thought it was the flower girl getting married (she was five too). So I run down the aisle saying "don't get married I love you" (just like I'd seen in the movies). Everyone was laughing. What I didn't know at the time was that SHE WAS MY COUSIN.

When I was about 13 or so I was at the wedding of a lady who was the cousin of my step moms brothers wife. (I guess you could say my uncles cousins wedding, kind of). Regardless I didn’t know anyone there except my dad, stepmom, step-uncle and his wife. An ex of the bride was invited, apparently they were still friends. It was all very casual but just like something out of a movie right at the ceremony he starts confessing his love for her and that he wants them to be together. The bride was beet red with embarrassment and the groom was kind of stunned with silence. After about the most uncomfortable 15 seconds of silence I’ve ever seen the brides father asks him “can I talk to you outside for a minute?”. Came back after about 15 minutes and told us all the ex had went home. The wedding carried on but you could just kind of tell everyone was off especially the bride and groom. They went through with it, but it wasn’t really a very good atmosphere and they both just looked super embarrassed. Apparently the ex sent an apology email a couple weeks later, but I always felt so bad because this magical day was basically tainted forever by this outburst.

I had to do this the night before my brother's wedding. His fiancé was cheating on him and it was a nightmare. One of the hardest things I ever had to do in my life was to tell him what was going on.

My uncle's wedding, in my country we do two wedding ceremonies, the traditional wedding ceremony where the woman introduces the fiance to her family and then the finally religious wedding ceremony. So my uncle had a traditional wedding with his first wife but they separated before they had the religious wedding and he moved on and got a second 'wife'. They had the traditional marriage and on their religious wedding ceremony, the first wife whom he had been separated from for like 5 years showed up in church and stopped their wedding on grounds that he had married her traditionally. The priest didn't go ahead to marry him and the second wife until he sorted issues with the first wife but he was finally able to wed his second wife in church.

Went to a wedding for some friends of mine. Beautiful bride and awesome groom where saying the vows. Unbeknownst to the family, the brides ex-boyfriend snuck into the church all dressed up as a guest and blended in. Priest says his line, and the ex boyfriend stands up and says "I object!" Some of the male family members escorted the guy out of the church by his feet and his back and head dragging on the ground. Was pretty epic.

Omg. My grandpa did this at my uncles wedding: “don’t marry her. she’s a [jerk]”. He was brain damaged at that point but still correct.

My friend’s cousin did this lol. His ex was getting married and he was clearly not over her, so he invaded her wedding at the chapel movie-like style with flowers and a suit and yelled “I OBJECT!” Clearly didn’t think it through. He got beaten up by the groomsmen and the bride’s brother.
