Last weekend, I crashed my first wedding (that I can remember anyway). Before you write me off as a tacky chic, let me say that I can justify it a little. I promise that I didn’t show up at a random wedding and pretend to be a relative of Aunt Bertha. I also didn’t show up at a wedding where I was the long lost love of the groom hoping that he would call it off. Those two things, I wouldn’t do.
My cousin was the Maid-of-Honor in a wedding that was held here in San Diego. She stayed with us for the weekend. She invited Lexi, Jordan and me to go with her on Saturday. Normally, I would say no, but she had submitted an RSVP for her and her four kids. Unfortunately, she is going through a nightmarish divorce and last week the judge decided that her abusive (soon to be ex) husband should get the kids for the weekend. (That could launch me into several different topics, but I’ll refrain. It just gets my blood boiling.)
Anyway… we went to the wedding. I thought it might be a nice for her to have moral support and the distraction of my kids. Besides, this was the bride's fourth marriage and she is only 32. I figured that if it hadn’t happened before, it was time for someone to crash one of her weddings. What I hadn’t counted on was the fact that my cousin and I were seated at the bride & groom’s table. Oh well. Fortunately, the kids were all off at their own little party upstairs. I decided to play it pleasant, but quiet. I had a nice time, but still couldn’t help laughing at the bride when her nipple/boob popped out of her dress while she was on the dance floor. I turned my head and tried to hide my snickering. Now you know, I am not only a wedding crasher, I laugh at others during embarrassing moments.

OMGosh! Wardrobe malfunction! And way to crash a wedding and land at the bride and groom's table. You're so funny!
Oh that is funny. Granted the bride was probably embarrased terribly, but it was funny to the rest of us. lol
For some weddings, they have to pay for everyone who has rsvp'd, whether or not they show up. So they may have appreciated that someone was there for the spots they had paid for. Sorry to hear about your cousin and her divorce...
I think it must be difficult to be in a wedding party under those circumstances (to be happy for someone else getting married as your marriage is falling apart). Not sure if this makes sense at all.
The best of both worlds: wedding crash and mocker. We would so get along IRL!
If you have to go to a wedding that sounds like the perfect way to do it. The nipple slip was an added bonus for entertainment!
Happy Mother's Day!
