Groom Fashion Disasters

John Thorp Jan 2010 One Comment Bookmark or Share

We were all told by our parents that if you don’t have anything good to say then you shouldn’t say anything at all, which just goes to show what those double-negative using jerks know. Sometimes it’s frankly advisable to be rude, especially if it stops other people committing the same fashion crimes. So get ready to point and laugh.

Night Fever

A man sporting a bad 70′s suit to his own wedding is barely even remarkable on this website nowadays. However, this enthusiastic Travolta-lite kicks it up a notch not only with his jittery dance moves, that provide a new, completely unsexy spin on a Saturday Night Fever classic, but a jacket emblazoned with a ball and chain and the words ‘GAME OVER’. Once he’s picked up his John Lewis gift vouchers, this man, who uploaded this video himself, is out to impress the new relatives with both his casual misogyny and his awful, awful choreography.


Peter Pan’s Wedding

Living, breathing meme ‘Peter Pan’ became an internet sensation a few years ago when his ‘Pixieland’ website, designed to find a girlfriend, took off when he posted an endless shots of him posing as ‘the boy that never grows up’.

Despite the inherent creepiness of this, he soon found an adult wife to have and to hold and to comb his weird hair, and the video of their medieval wedding was another hit. To view it and marvel whether you’ll ever have someone dressed as Batman at your wedding (and not look like the weirdo) then click here. Or don’t.


Even in this Galaxy…

Leafing through links and news stories of crackpot weddings, you find the bizarre, such as this featured Star Wars wedding, and think, “That’s mad.” And then you consider everyone who gets invited to the wedding with not even a passing interest in Star Wars and have to remember they have to spend the day dressed as some sort of formal robot.

However, even despite the theme, we can’t excuse the fact that the groom on this occasion has chosen to dress as Boba Fett a ‘Mandalorian warrior and bounty hunter’, which translates as a man wearing a load of tin and scraps of rags to conceal his identity. In a series that includes comfy and practical robes worn by Christopher Lee, this is unacceptable.

Bonus weirdness – cockle-headed alien monster Mon Calimari is also wed in this photo.


To Do – Go For jog, Get Married

No video for this chap we’re afraid, but here’s the definitive example of being a little too comfortable at your own marital shindig. As this athletic young man takes his elegant bride by the hand, to love and to cherish, in the comfort of some brand new, admittedly correctly-coloured jogging bottoms and a tracksuit, complete with box fresh Adidas trainers. On the traditional bride and groom pose photo in particular, it’s not difficult to imagine the wall of an off licence for him to lean against. The risks involved in this sort of garb must surely include being thrown out your own hired wedding venue, and getting too comfortable at the altar means risking scratching your gonads by proxy.

    Beside grooms, I have seen a lot of wedding and anniversary guests with disaster fashion dressing in last 6 months.

    Recent fashion disasters would have to include people who wear those Supre type leggings as pants. Especially heavily overweight people. They’re fine when worn under a dress, skirt or shorts – but how can they possibly pass as pants? They make even the most in-shape people look chunky.
    Oh, and ugg boots. I’m sorry but a pair of shoes that you can’t get wet are utterly useless.
