Bride ruins £12k dress on wedding day when she 'gambled on fart and lost in big way'

An American event planner experienced the horror of her bride ruining her wedding dress, just moments before the first dance was supposed to start

A wedding planner was left "sponging down a sobbing, naked bride" after a last minute plan to fix some last-minute belly bloating went catastrophically wrong.

What should have been the happiest day of her life was completely ruined because she spent the day knocking back detox shakes, resulting in disaster when she "gambled on a fart and lost in a big way".

She ended up ruining her £12,000 dress, but refused to let that get that stop her from having a first dance with her husband in front of their nearest and dearest.

But things went from bad to worse and ended up with the couple feeding each other wedding cake with "poo-stained hands".

The wedding planner was first alerted to the issue when she heard the dreaded words "we have an issue" over her headset.

The planner saw "the most curious blend of expressions pass over the brides face"

She took to Reddit to share the horrifying details, which she admits still make her cringe.

Her post has attracted more than 5,000 comments with most users being pretty "grossed out" by the turn of events and others labelling her a "hero" and a "champ".

Things didn't exactly start well, and the planner claims the bride had been quite the "bridezilla" from day one.

She wanted the reception to take place in a historic barn at one of the family properties, which caused numerous issues.

The lady insisted this was the sort of thing she would have never dreamed of doing on her own wedding day

It had no water or electricity, leaving the planner to arrange for a bank of generators, buckets of water, additional auxiliary tents - as the barn wasn't big enough to house all the guests.

After hearing what had happened the planner told guests there would be a short delay before heading to the loo to help her poor assistant, who was cleaning the bride off with toilet paper.

She claims the bride had let out "a substance no human body should emit".

She writes: "I'm just looking at her manicured nails. Residue of diarrhea are just embedded in her nail bed. I start trying to scrape the poo out with a fabric stain wipe."

The mix of detox shakes and cocktails ended in an unlikely disaster 

But the bride insisted the show went on.

Despite the stench that she brought out of the bathroom with her - which the groom noticed - the newlyweds took their place on the dance floor to start the choreographed number.

The planner writes: "As the groom spun his bride around, hand on her waist, he is squishing the poo up the insides of the waist trainer, up and out the back waistband.

"To our horror, we watch as a oily stain spread across the mid back of the gown. As we are still cringing from this, the groom sets his hand firmly in the middle of the poo stain."

After the couple fed cake to each other, both repulsed, at their poo-stained hands, the planner pulled the bride into the support tent to salvage the situation.

She said she was left "sponging down a sobbing, naked bride, while I questioned every life decision that lead to this point."

Five minutes into the clean-up, the bride was dressed again - minus the inner lining of the dress - and returned to the celebration, a little worse for wear.

Despite the disaster, pictures from the day still appeared in a magazine, and were beautiful. It was just a blessing it was away from the smell.
