“I should have made my wife eat her meal. We sat at the table alone and chatted while everyone else was eating and she said she wasn’t very hungry after eating like 1/4 of her plate. Turns out that half hour was the only 30 minutes of the day she wasn’t hungry. I finally went downstairs and got her a plate of hors d’oeuvres after her trying to politely sneak down for two hours. They spirited her food away some point after dinner and she still regrets not getting to eat the great food we picked out.” — lcdrambrose

“Getting separated from my wife while at the wedding. She went to the bathroom and then got swarmed by friends and family and she disappeared what seemed like hours. Also, in general getting pulled away from each other. When I would get a drink or talk to someone. The reason I regret it, is because my wife looked so absolutely stunning that day and I just wanted to look at her the entire time. My wife is still hot but something about that dress.” — Ezzy17

“Getting a shitty photographer my mom recommended (someone from her church). As we’re taking pre-wedding pictures (part of the wedding picture package), I asked him during one of the breaks what got him into photography. He answered ‘it’s just something to do while I try to open my restaurant.’ That should’ve been the red flag.” — earlgreylover

“Not eloping and leaving my mother-in-law in the dark. I could have had hair and makeup done. Could have had the dress of my dreams. And may even have pictures on my walls from a day I loved. I had none of those things and it still hurts.” — Runbunnierun

“If I would change one thing though, it would have been to hire a hair and makeup artist. My MIL did my hair and it was fine and I did my own makeup and it was fine, but I wish I had just let myself spend that little bit extra on myself looking back. Even though we did get caught in the rain so it all would have been ruined the same either way haha. Made for a fabulous waterfall photo though!” — WifeyJugs69

“Stuffing cake in my wife’s face. No exaggeration, I regret it to this day. One of the traits of a successful marriage is to protect your spouse, with words, with your actions. Protect in this case has the meaning of upholding their dignity, their honor, etc. shoving cake in their face is not doing any of that and it’s very very public. Don’t do it. Plus it messed with her make up, I really really wish I hadn’t.” — Derekeys

“I regret not turning around to watch my wife walk down the aisle. It was an outdoor wedding with no music, and I was told to stare at the nearby ruins so I didn’t accidentally see my wife as she made her way to the back of where we had the ceremony. With no cue, I had no idea when to turn until she tapped me on the shoulder and giggled a small ‘hi.’ Her dress was amazing, and the ceremony went well amidst a surprise downpour (two hours earlier than expected), but I really wish I had been able to watch her walk the aisle.” — Wintersteel89

“Thinking it was so important to get all of my family there. In retrospect, those that had to be convinced and accommodated shouldn’t have been there.” — WildlyCautious
