July 8, 2009We’re late in the game, I know, but Tacky Weddings has now joined the world of Twitter.
Tacky Wedding All-Star: Mini-me bride and groom, neon orange showgirl bridesmaids, AND super fugly wedding dress!!
July 8, 2009First, let me thank Eva for sending me these pictures. These, my friends, are the good stuff, the reason why this little blog exists. I don’t think I have laughed this hard in a while. Just when I think I have seen it all… the worst of the worst, the most tasteless, over the top, godawful spectacles around… one of my fabulous readers sends me this wedding, and I am proven SO wrong. I love this wedding. Very, very much.
BEHOLD!
This is the creepiest thing I have ever seen at at wedding, ever. Mini-me matching child bride and groom!!! Ahh! Not okay. Not. Okay.
Yeah, Mom, get a nice handful of bosom for the family photo op. Don’t be shy, go for it.
Oh man, oh man, oh man….
Seriously, WTF.
Star Wars/ Star Trek/Sci-Fi Weddings
July 1, 2009These weddings look like they were a lot of fun, especially ones where the guests dress up.
This Star Wars wedding is my favorite:
From the Bride, Jennifer:
“The story behind [the wedding] was that we’d been married before, and I told my husband the only way I’d get married again is if it was with Elvis in Vegas, and he said the only way he’d do it again is if it was on the bridge of the Enterprise. Luckily, Vegas is the only place where one could have done that, so that’s where we went. To date, that’s the only Star Trek wedding with Elvis. It was fun and entertaining (we had a fantastic Elvis), and definitely a once in a lifetime event.”

Bride and Groom get tasered at wedding AND on honeymoon
June 30, 2009
From Don Surber’s blog on the Daily Mail:
Andy Somora and Anna Pastuszwska were made for each other.
They cannot hold their liquor and when the police come, they keep acting up until they get tasered.
On July 19, they were married and had a wedding reception at an art gallery in Lakeside, Mich.
People drank too much. A metal lamp went through a window. Cops were called. Stun guns were pulled.
And the bride and the groom were tasered.
But wait. There’s more. The honeymoon was just as bad. The Chicago Sun-Times reported:
“The short version of the story is they didn’t want to quit their partying,” said Mike Sepic, Berrien County, Mich., chief assistant prosecutor. “If you put this in the class of wedding receptions gone bad, I guess this would take the cake.”
And the story didn’t end after the reception. Two nights later, the bride and groom were again arrested in Michigan — and again shocked by a stun gun — after struggling with police investigating a noise complaint, Sepic said. The groom was charged with pushing his new wife down during that incident, but the charge was later dropped as part of a plea bargain, Sepic said.
Disneyland Musical Marriage Proposal
June 30, 2009In this viral video hit, a guy proposes to his girlfriend with a highly choreographed routine at Disneyland. Many (like the folks over at Jezebel) think that this is just a staged publicity stunt for Disney, but either way, I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.
Fun with photoshop wedding invites
June 30, 2009I came across these photoshopped wedding invites quite by accident, but I’m glad I did. All done by the groom’s sister. They are really silly, and I think its a fun idea. ”Young love” is my personal favorite.
“So, sometime in December my brother Daniel is getting married. Congratulations Daniel! – To help celebrate the occasion, and because they didn’t ask me to help, I am going to make a new wedding invitation for them every week until they get married One can see right away that these wedding invitations are not going to be good in any way. In fact, they are going to be as terrible as I can make them. So stay tuned. (So, I’m not really that bitter or anything, I just want to make silly wedding invitations as an attempt to haze my brother a bit) “
Patriotic/July 4th Weddings
June 30, 2009In honor of the upcoming holiday weekend!!
Ralph Archbold, who is a Benjamin Franklin impersonator, married Linda Wilde, who portrays Betsy Ross at different events. Mayor Michael Nutter officiated the ceremony. Ben and Betsy exchanged rings engraved with a kite and key and the stars and stripes The crowd reportedly gasped as Wilde, dressed in a 18th Century-era wedding dress, walked down the aisle of Independence Mall escorted by family members dressed in period garb. Not to be outdone, Archbold’s best man was a guy who plays Thomas Jefferson.
Their wedding cake, adorable!

Um, that’s none of your beeswax mister!!!
June 29, 2009This is from one of my all time FAVORITE blogs, Passive Aggressive Notes.
” At a recent wedding that Allison in Raleigh, NC attended, the bride asked that, instead of signing a guestbook, wedding guests write their wishes for the couple on fabric squares that would later be made into a memory quilt. When Allison saw this one sitting on top, she couldn’t resist snapping a photo.”
The fabric swatch reads:
“One can only hope that you saved yourself for your wedding night. -Jennifer + John”
Man, I hope they put that one front and center on the quilt. Classic.
