Bride reads out fiancé’s affair texts instead of their vows at wedding
In the most ideal manner, a bride got her own back on her cheating fiancé.
The pair had been in a relationship for some years, and what was meant to be the happiest day of her life went somewhat sour when she got a terrible SMS the night before their nuptials.
Casey, who used a pseudonym for both her fiancé Alex and herself, was drinking with her bridesmaids when she received a series of texts to her phone from an unidentified number on a screenhottie.
Apart from the grabbing, the mysterious person penned: “I wouldn’t marry him. WILL you?”
For Alex, who had clearly been seeing another woman in the months before his wedding to Casey, the letters were quite damning.
“This Sunday. you and me. On hot stuff, it is. Bring your A game,” one raunchy message said.
“Your body is really amazing. And s**t know how to apply it? “I wish my GF had half the skills you do,” said another.
A third book began: “I miss you so much. L, S, F’ing you still bothers me. This level of connection is unprecedented for me.
“I burst into shamed and broken tears,” Casey said in an essay for Body+Soul. “My girls were threatening all kinds of harm directed against him. They insisted I call him right away and call the wedding off.”
She carried on writing: “But I adored Alex. I wanted to wed Alex tomorrow. Too stunned and depressed, I could not be angry. I did not phone him.
“We attempted to go to bed finally. I didn’t sleep a wink, and when daylight eventually dawned I woke the girls and informed them my decision: I was going to go with the wedding as scheduled, and “out” him in front of our friends and family.”
Casey “outed” her then-husband-to-be by reading the text messages to every visitor at their wedding instead of her vows.
Said the jilted bride, “It seems Alex is not who I thought he was.” “I adore all of you and as terrible as this is; grateful you all are here.
“There will be a celebration of honesty, finding true love and following your heart even though it hurts today instead of a wedding reception.”
As his private notes were read aloud, color left the groom’s cheeks; he later “stalked out of the church with his best man trailing behind him.”
“It was definitely not the wedding day I had planned but to our credit, it was one hell of a party,” Casey said closing the essay.
Surely, that evening many, many tequila shots were drunk.
