The only way it is ever acceptable to propose at someone else's wedding.....if the guy told the couple about it wayyy before the wedding date and they were ok with it.
My friend's little brother proposed at her Puerto Vallarta destination wedding(she is from Mexico). Her family is scattered between U.S. and Mexico so this was one of the few times they would all be together. My friend not only knew about it way in advance...she was the one to give him the idea of doing it after her ceremony.

Why wouldnt he tell them ahead of time to see if its okay?
I'm not sure but this "John" fellow seems to have zero self awareness

I'm going to guess this wasn't a church wedding. If it was though, how fast can s church switch from wedding to funeral mode? Surely they can cover the ice quickly like the NHL/NBA arenas.

Probably fair. My best friend is already married, but I couldn't imagine him doing this at any future wedding that I may have even if he wasn't.
Yeah, the only best man that would do this is someone who is unoriginal and doesn't respect your friendship. Or just plain retarded and doesn't understand the situation.

$80,000 wedding??? Wtf??

The new fiancé would've been picking up his teeth after the reception. It would be different if the bride and groom actively encouraged it, but obviously they were out of the loop

Poor is expecting the grooms family to pay for anything besides the rehearsal dinner and honeymoon

Especially with the timeline in the OP. So he stepped away mir-vow? People were just talking loudly during the wedding? Nah....

Yea this must of been one of those "Days of our Lives" weddings. 80k is alot but not out of the ordinary these days.

Yeah that's pretty fricked up but there are tons of self absorbed people so it's not that surprising if true

I wish there was a video to prove this happened?

My wife's best friend was pissed that her boyfriend hadn't proposed to her yet so he dropped a gold and diamond Rolex on her minutes before our wedding. We were young and poor then so it was a bigger deal than it would be now. She proceeded to flaunt it to everyone at the reception and really pissed off my wife. So, while this story sounds fake, shite like this does happen.

We have six daughters (it's complicated) and although we could afford much more, we have set a $5,000 limit for our contribution to each wedding. Only one is married, and her wedding was one of the best I have ever attended...even made the paper as an example of how weddings don't have to be an arms race. Focus on the purpose not the event...you will not regret it.

I wouldn't be surprised if my views are different on this than many people's, but it just seems incredibly irresponsible the type of money that some people spend on weddings. Unless you come from a wealthy family $80k would go a long way towards establishing yourself and your new marriage, instead of spending it on what is essentially just a big party.

Seems cheap. You sure they didn't end up spending some of their own money or that the groom's parents didn't chip in with out you knowing?

Seems rude, and considering this is coming from the bride, if true, is likely blown way out of proportion.
Have you guys ever experienced a traditional Indian wedding?
Guy I work with said they can get into hundreds of thousand. They are large, last for several days, and may include housing costs of many guests/family.

He said that was just their contribution. Sounds like he is expecting their daughters to help contribute as well.
