A FORMER bartender has opened up about a wedding they worked.
They couldn’t believe the event’s theme, describing it as the “tackiest” wedding ever.
Redditor MedicineChess shared the reception disaster in a post.
They explained that the bride had decided on a M&Ms themed weddingand had pulled out all the stops to match.
“The palette was rainbow, center prices were snack bags of M&M’s, and her dress had the characters sewn on,” they said.
The bridesmaids’ dresses, they added, weren’t any better.
“The bridesmaids were all an M&M character with dresses as bright as the candy,” they said.
Not only that, but they felt that the decor reminded them of something that would appear in a candy store.
“The decor was the giant M&M character displays you see in stores,” they said.
“Can you guess what the cake was? That’s right- a giant green M&M.”
The bride’s obsession with the candy, they explained, stemmed from a desire to honor her late family.
“She did make a speech that her mom loved collecting M&M things, and she recently passed, so she re-did her wedding theme for her mom,” they said.
“Basically, the wedding decor all came from her passed mother’s home.
While some can see the theme as a sweet tribute, they explained that it felt a bit odd.
“Is that weird to anyone else? I feel like a gremlin saying a way to remember her mother was tacky, but holy cow, y’all should’ve been there,” they said.
The bridesmaids were all an M&M character with dresses as bright as the candy.

Another ceremony that shocked them was one that quickly hit the fan.
“[The] reception is just beginning. The wedding party had been on a party bus from the ceremony to the reception and were trashed,” they said.
“Fast forward 45 minutes and one groomsman spilled his drink on another bridesmaid while on the dance floor.
“Flash forward 15 seconds, and there is a pile of people throwing drinks and hands. It took less than five minutes for the police to arrive.”
Not two hours later, the party was already over.
“I remember the bride bawling her eyes out as half her wedding party was shuttled away in cop cars. I also recall her new husband (so drunk [he] could hardly stand) telling her, ‘It’s fine, and we will just go pick them up.’
“My boss had to tell them they need to leave. We needed to clean BLOOD off the dance floor.”
While many agreed that the second wedding sounded like a dumpster fire, some thought the first could be forgiven.
“[It’s] the kind of tacky I love to see. It’s not for me, but you all do you,” said one commenter.
“Yes, I agree! I would’ve been rolling my eyes, but the second I heard that it was to honor the bride’s late mom, my heart broke,” said another.
