If you have ever planned or attended a wedding you'll already know that there is a tonne of pressure and stress associated with them.
We're not just talking logistical nightmares, there are deep seated emotional pressures to bringing your nearest and dearest together for one special day.
But this particular tale does not feature a wedding that happened - oh no, this is all about a wedding that never took place.
An anonymous American bride had her story of love, loss, betrayal and paint balling shared by a close friend on Twitter.
The story began innocently enough...
Y'all. I have been having the most ridiculous 24 hours. Friend wants to keep the drama off twitter, but is okay with me saying this:— 2022 Witch 🌬❄️ (@2022 Witch 🌬❄️) 1497722318
And then the bomb was dropped.
She caught her fiance in bed with one of her bridesmaids last night. They were supposed to be getting married today.— 2022 Witch 🌬❄️ (@2022 Witch 🌬❄️) 1497722357
Wow. How? Who? Why? Let's unpack this modern day Shakespearean tale, shall we?
It was going to be a low-key backyard wedding. We're still doing the potluck & party. He's not welcome. Locks changed, etc.— 2022 Witch 🌬❄️ (@2022 Witch 🌬❄️) 1497722892
No waiting around. Moving on.
I took her to the ranch overnight (got to fix my computer this morning as a result!) & we're back in Austin. Swung by my house for supplies— 2022 Witch 🌬❄️ (@2022 Witch 🌬❄️) 1497723014
She's angry as hell. No tears yet. I was a bridesmaid and there was a third; 3rd and bride and I are plotting.— 2022 Witch 🌬❄️ (@2022 Witch 🌬❄️) 1497723078
But it doesn't stop there.
The bride had the perfect response to being cheated on.
Quick update: potluck was fun, his crap is cleared out, and now we are dancing to a good DJ and shooting paintballs at her dress. A+— 2022 Witch 🌬❄️ (@2022 Witch 🌬❄️) 1497745140
Firing paint balls as the wedding dress? YES.
update: Everyone is now calling them "painballs" and I just can't— 2022 Witch 🌬❄️ (@2022 Witch 🌬❄️) 1497745598
We love wordplay at indy100... But wait, there's more.
HOLY SHIT SHITTY BRIDESMAID/SECRET GIRLFRIEND AND THE EX ARE IN LAS VEGAS WHAT IS GOING ON— 2022 Witch 🌬❄️ (@2022 Witch 🌬❄️) 1497745825
SHE'S LIVESTREAMING THEM GETTING MARRIED WHAT EVEN IS GOING ON HOW IS THIS EVEN HAPPENING— 2022 Witch 🌬❄️ (@2022 Witch 🌬❄️) 1497745895
she managed to choke out "I didn't dodge a bullet; I dodged a fucking atomic bomb" oh my gods this is just what is happening— 2022 Witch 🌬❄️ (@2022 Witch 🌬❄️) 1497746136
Shitty Bridesmaid is boasting how they're going on a REAL honeymoon. We *were* taking bets on whether it would be a tacky resort in Mexico— 2022 Witch 🌬❄️ (@2022 Witch 🌬❄️) 1497749397
But... Plot twist.
Let's draw the line at live streaming that.
We are now taking bets on whether she's going to livestream the wedding night.— 2022 Witch 🌬❄️ (@2022 Witch 🌬❄️) 1497750872
Oh wow.
Oh btw Ex and Bride had a shared bank account for their honeymoon (they were planning on Scotland in late autumn). She drained & closed it— 2022 Witch 🌬❄️ (@2022 Witch 🌬❄️) 1497750906
Netflix is important.
while waiting for me to pick her up last night. She's changed the passwords on all her accounts (including her Netflix, ofc).— 2022 Witch 🌬❄️ (@2022 Witch 🌬❄️) 1497750939
The moral of the story here?
I'm so, so glad she decided to go ahead with the potluck. Imagine if she'd been here alone or with just a couple of us instead of 30+ people— 2022 Witch 🌬❄️ (@2022 Witch 🌬❄️) 1497751736
Thank you for this journey.
We're all here, fiercely loving on her and supporting her. It's been a hell of a day.— 2022 Witch 🌬❄️ (@2022 Witch 🌬❄️) 1497751796
