And the marriage is still going? (Not including your own)
(Min 5 years)

I guess I'm a lucky groomsman. In the 7 or 8 weddings I've stood in, only one has ever in divorce. Most of the others are well over 15 years ago.

If you count being an usher, 2 have ended in divorce.

So I am 6-1 (6-2 counting being usher)

If you stand in someone's wedding and it ends in divorce, should you ask to be reimbursed for tux rental, gift, bachelor party?

I'll tell you in 10-20 years. I'm at the point where the first group of my friends are starting to get married. I've only stood in 1 wedding so far (almost 5 years ago), and by spring next year, assuming things don't fall apart, I will have been in 3.

when I was in college a buddy knocked up his g/f and she refused to solve the problem with a coat hanger, so he married her. We all knew it was doomed from the get go, but I stood there as his best man. Divorced within 6 months, the baby girl was only 2 months old.

Been in near 10 weddings as grooms man or usher. All those are happily married.

Stood in six weddings. three have ended in divorce.

Of the three that are still going -- they have lasted 17, 12 and 9 years respectively.

The three that ended lasted 15, eight and nine years.

I got married in 2009 and my wife and I were looking at reception photos the other night -- there were multiple couples who attended as guests and the majority of those couples are now divorced.

So maybe my wedding was cursed.
