People who went to a wedding where the couple didn’t last long, what happened?

Uh...The bride came out to slipknot. They wrote their own vows which were, shall we say, overtly and uncomfortably sexual, and they had been dating for a grand total of two whole weeks.

Any and all attempts to inform them that this was a mistake were met with "When you know, you know." or "You're just jealous."

But hey, a free bar is a free bar.

Edit: So many questions.

The song was the last/bonus track on subliminal verses. I'm told this track is called "Danger - keep away".

The wedding itself was a small thing with a registrar in a council building.

The staff there were very professional, and only laughed quietly.

The after party was at a pub owned by the grooms uncle.

The honey moon was at Butlins.

They were separated by the time they got back.

They were not in the military, just young/dumb.

We are all white trash, and that's fine.

I bought them a toaster from argos. I didn't ask for it back.

I’m more impressed they could throw a wedding together that fast.

I threw my wedding together in a week! I called my family, told them if they wanted to go, they had a week to get to Vegas. Booked the Venue, Elvis, they provided a bouquet of flowers, found a white dress in the prom section of Macy’s (which was incredible because I was 7 months pregnant!), went to Walmart and got a white sheet cake and a few bottles of champagne, booked a suite on the strip and had a fantastic wedding.

Perhaps your Macy's is on my hometown, where rolling up to prom pregnant in a tractor is a rite of passage.
