I'm sorry for the lengthy post, I just need to get this off my chest.
I was hoping to take the easy route and elope, but my lady wanted to have a nice wedding, understandably. She saved up $20,000 and spent countless hours researching, planning, and even creating beautiful hand-made place settings, signs, etc.
So, the wedding day came. We had about 50 guests and everybody was enjoying themselves at the reception. Then, my spoiled brother, who happens to be gay, decided to throw a tantrum in the name of gay rights. My wife and I have always supported him, and gay rights in general, so it was really untimely.
Here's what happened: as is tradition, my wife threw her bouquet of flowers, but my brother caught it. The DJ, who didn't know anything about my brother's sexuality, asked for a redo. My wife threw it again and a female guest caught it this time. Well, my brother got super upset and cursed out the DJ. My sister started throwing a fit. My dad held my brother against the wall and started choking him. My parents then left the venue, leaving my wife and I to deal with the mess.
My wife was in tears. No bride should ever have to cry sad tears on her wedding day. No one has ever apologized to us. My true blue Mormon parents blamed the behavior on the wine we were serving (my brother can never do any wrong, no matter what he does). Oddly enough, everyone else who was drinking was completely capable of behaving themselves. We tried to turn the other cheek, but we've really just been treated like shit ever since. Because of this and several other reasons (like constant disappoint in literally every single decision I make), I had to say goodbye to my parents and my siblings for the remainder of my life.
Thank you for listening.
