“Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned,” was originally written by English poet and dramatist William Congreve. He was right, boy, was he. A previous bride-to-be called Casey really stuck it to her fiancé “Alex” when she discovered the night before their wedding that he wasn’t really the person she thought he was. This is one of the most horrific wedding stories that people have ever told.
The night before the wedding, Casey learned of her fiancé’s infidelity after six years of dating—and she had the text message evidence to prove it. When Casey’s phone vibrated, she was among her closest friends finishing out last-minute details for her big day.
She received many images of text messages from an anonymous number, along with the phrase, “I wouldn’t marry him.” Will you?
The chats shown in the screenshots were between “Alex” and another lady, and they included extremely improper topics that no man in a committed relationship should be talking about.
Whimn was told by Casey, “She was the opposite of me.” This unidentified woman had olive skin and black hair, while I am fair-haired and blonde. The texts ranged in date from a few days to several months prior. My mind was just unable to process what was happening. There was no doubting these messages’ veracity. I had a gut feeling.
Casey realized she couldn’t just call off the entire event because her wedding was the next day and her whole family and friends had traveled to be there. However, she was also aware that she was unable to wed “Alex.” She then devised an incredible scheme.
“I didn’t sleep a wink and when dawn finally broke I awoke the girls and told them my decision – I was going to go ahead with the wedding as expected, and ‘out’ him in front of our friends and family.”
“Alex” could tell something was wrong the next day when she was walking down the aisle.
Once she got to the altar, Casey turned to the crowd – dreading what she was about to do – and said, “There will be no wedding today. It seems ‘Alex’ is not who I thought he was.”
The entire room was stunned and confused about what was happening. “Alex” tried a last-ditch effort to stop his bride by reaching for her hand, but it didn’t work.
With that, Casey went on to read each and every text message out loud.
“With each word, more color left Alex’s face. I let my weeping eyes rise and meet his, and he had not one thing to say. He stalked out of the church with his best man trailing behind him. His family looked on, horrified,” Casey said.
Her intentions weren’t to ruin the day for everyone – all she wanted to do was try and turn the entire disaster around.
“I love all of you and as horrible as this is I’m glad you all are here. There will not be a wedding reception today, but instead, there will be a celebration of honesty, finding true love and following your heart even when it hurts.”
Her guests all gave a small, awkward round of applause for the humiliated bride. Some of the guests actually cheered. According to one of her guests in attendance, everyone attended the party – all except the groom, his brother, and two of his friends.
“It was certainly not the wedding day I had planned but to our credit, it was one hell of a party,” Casey added.
What do you think about the situation? Would you have done the same if you were in Casey’s shoes?
