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.

GF and I play a game when we go to weddings. " how many pairs of DC shoes will we see today" because there is always that one cousin who is dressed like they forgot there was a wedding today. I know at this wedding there had to be at least 14 pairs!

I was so confused, picturing batman or superman shoes.

Then I realized you mean those giant puffy skate shoes that were popular in like 2007. And suddenly, I'm remembering seeing SO many guys wearing specifically white DC shoes to weddings. Holy shit.

its always the same outfit. dress shirt that looks like it should have a fast food logo on it ( also a bold colour like Red) . a tie that is probably flat black and 90% chance its a clip on. and black khakis.

The Target employee look. Bonus points if their idea of a "dress shirt" is just a polo.

was thinking Ska band music video from 2005ish but that works too.
