What could be more embarrassing than uttering someone else’s name in the altar and not your fiancé’s? That’s what happened to Zhao Lei from Beijing.

What do you do if you do not want to get married? Take a cue from Jennifer Willbanks and kidnap yourself of course! Developing cold feet at the last minute, Jennifer decided to elope from her wedding. In order to hide her true intentions, she faked her own kidnapping to New Mexico, making her parents believe her lie and even post a $100000 reward for her safe return. Eventually they found out that it was all a big lie. We wonder though, wouldn’t a simple no at the altar done the trick for Jennifer rather than this botched kidnap drama?

At the All Saints Church in Hutton, London one day, a blood soaked man barged into the building and started creating a ruckus an hour before a wedding was to take place at the venue. Apparently out of his mind, the man had a scissor in his hand and used the same to cut off his testicles. He was later apprehended by the authorities and referred to a hospital for treatment. Nevertheless, the sight of a bloody man and his chopped off testicles was more than enough to delay the wedding by a couple of hours.
