Last week I went to my husbands's good friends wedding, it was far away and I had to get a sitter for my 6 months old, get dressed and spend alot of money, and I feel like it went all down the drain for a party and not a real wedding.
My husbands friend during the whole cermony was laughing and cracking jokes, when it came to the vows and the Lady Preacher said "Do you promise to be loyal, honest and loving for the rest of your days" and his response was "Maybe", and when the lady said 'Do you promise to love her and only her, and he said "I will think about it,..He was cracking up the whole time and not taking it seriously. What offended me is he Said "I will honor God all the days of my life" and at the end of the cermony he said "I don't even like God".
At the Reception, he spent most of the time hanging out with my husband and his buddies, he told us jokenly to "Go Fuc* ourselves" and this was the last damn time he was going to buy us a drink.
He treated this as one big party and I was offended that he would not take such a scared event seriously.
I know it's not my buiness, but I did have to pay alot of money to attend, give a gift and have a sitter for 7 hours..
Suggestion:
You are behaving like you bought a ticket for a movie, and the movie wasn't what you expected and now you want your money back. It doesn't work that way.
I know it was a tacky wedding, but you've got no say in it. It's their day, if they want to make light of it, then that's up to them, and I guess you will just have to put it down to expeience, and ask yourself whether you still want to be friends with these people.
P.S. Yeah i know you don't want a refund. I was using that as an analogy. What I'm saying is, it's their wedding they can do whatever they want, and you should stop being upset about it. If their marriage goes south, then that's their problem and not yours or anyone else's. Get over it.

I wonder if anyone was taking bets on how long this "marriage" would last.
I give this marriage a month at the most. How old was this douche bag, twelve?
He sounds like a moron, some people constantly seek attention by making wisecracks and it get's tiresome before long.
I understand why you found it distasteful, so would I have.
