When I Mispronounced the Bride's Name

So yeah, I'm NOT a priest, but I did an online course thing so I could officiate my best friend's wedding. I was super nervous but practiced tons. Come the big day and all goes well, until, YEP, the very climax, and I mispronounced the bride's name!!! Called her 'Amy' instead of 'Annie'. I’ll never live it down, she still mocks me every chance she gets!

Happens! But seriously, how hard is it to say 'Annie'?

Well, that's embarrassing but not the end of the world. Seen cases of people forgetting the rings or even worse, the wedding date. At least, you didn't forget to show up!

Man, reading this post was like a flashback. I did the EXACT same thing last year, only that I had blamed it on the couple of beers I had. Took months to sink in and stop blushing whenever I saw the couple.

As a marriage counselor for over two decades, I've seen and heard a fair share of stumbling words, lost rings, and even fainting brides and grooms. The day is fraught with high emotions, and it's normal to make a few slip ups. At the end of the day, the ceremony is a formality. What truly matters is the promise two individuals make to each other, and it doesn’t hinge upon the flawless execution of the rituals or even saying the right names. A bit of humor and forgiveness can go a long way.

Haha, amateurs playing grown-ups. Love it! I hope you didn't forget to sign the marriage license too! 🙄

Don't beat yourself up dude, everyone messes up. Sounds like your friend has a sense of humor about it. It'll become one of those funny memories you guys will be laughing about for years. Next time, take a cue card... or, better yet, don't officiate weddings!

Congrats, you've just made it to the 'Dumbest Moments in Wedding History' leaderboard. Officiating a wedding and can't get the bride's name right? Classic! How you can sleep at night, I have no idea! 🤣
