Prior to your wedding did you have to have a 'talk' with anyone?

We can happily say that we did not have any negative experiences with anyone at our wedding , nor did we have to warn people to be on their best behavior.

Unfortunately we cannot say the same about some friends of ours who are getting married in a couple of months.

They have about a handful of people who are known to act up at events- getting drunk and passing out, a couple who argues ALL the time among other things. They plan on having a conversation with each of these people to tell them to be on their best behavior.

Did any of you go through this?

We had concerns about one of our guests. DH's aunt & uncle were prepared to handle any situation if one arose. Fortunately, none did.

Sad really sad. We spoke to my dad about not acting like a cave man like he usually does

my aunt avoided it by coming by herself, her husband cannot handle his liquor, she said girl I don't want anyone to spoil your day, so he stays home

lets just say as I was getting into the limo to go home, the cops pulled up at my reception hall

Bad at the time, but we laugh about it now. Thankfully this was not a family member, but a friends boyfriend

my mom had to have a conversation with my sister and also with my other sisters boyfriend. my sister was in the the wedding party and even though she had been given the 'talk' but she still showed her boobs to my groomsman and got so drunk she fell a few time son the dance floor. luckily i didnt know or notice any of things untill after the wedding. but i warned all of my friends and family to keep a look out fo rmy sister and they werent shocked at her bahavior although i was embarassed

my SIL (DH's sister) has a very bad habit of causing drama whereever she goes - DH's brother and his GF kept an eye on her all night and everytime she even remotely tried something, my BIL was all over her.
