A groom is suing his bride for 88, 000 RMB for ‘mental anguish’ and wedding expenses after she committed possibly the worst wedding faux pas possible: she ran away with her ex boyfriend, at her own wedding reception.

The wedding was already a recipe for disaster- the groom, Shi and the Bride, surnamed Fang, were getting married after only knowing each other for a month. What’s more, Fang invited her ex boyfriend, Li to the reception. Li and Shi, unsurprisingly, were less than fond of each other and began bickering in the middle of the celebrations. What no one expected though, was that Fang would not only take her ex’s side, but she also stormed out with him, leaving Shi and their wedding guests stunned.

The Shaanxi provincial court where the case was heard granted Shi a divorce and ordered Fang to pay 30,000 RMB to compensate for the wedding gifts she’d received.
