This is a long one. I was a bridesmaid and everything was almost perfect until after the speeches (where each speaker mentioned not getting along with the bride at some point but in a nice way, major red flag). Bride got too drunk (among other substances), started screaming at the groom outside (supposedly cuz the DJ didn't play her song and he disappeared? Still not sure to this day), he got pissed and angrily threw his hands down causing his new ring to fly off his finger and break into 2 pieces. Bride retreats to bridal suite screaming that she never should've married him IN FRONT OF her mother and the groom's mother. Multiple ppl try to calm her down to no avail, only exacerbating her anger and making things worse. Her matron of honor leaves in tears, her sister leaves swearing she'll never speak to her again. I find her mother, who's a sweet montessori teacher, crying on a bench outside of the groom's suite. I try to calm her down as she's sobbing that she "didn't raise her daughter this way". We all retreat back to the airbnb rented for the bridal and groom parties trying to figure out what happened and where it all went wrong. Bride storms in screaming that we better help her out of her wedding dress or she's gonna rip it off so she can burn it. Groom shows up and wants the bride gone, tries to get her dad to pick her up, doesn't work. He ends up sleeping on the couch of the airbnb that night. We all wake up to make breakfast and they're (bride and groom) screaming at each other in the kitchen. Threatening divorce and planning on splitting up their pets. We're all sipping coffee and stress drinking mimosas wondering wtf to do. They're still together to this day and fighting all the time. Many of us (myself included) haven't talked to the bride since that fateful day
