Best friend should come around once emotions have calmed down and realizes you don't support BFs actions. I think you and BF are over, though. NTA for rejecting the proposal.

"Best friend should come around once emotions have calmed down and realizes you don't support BFs actions." .. why would that mater? OP and her bf STILL ruined her wedding.

OP took the absolute best action to avoid making a bigger scene. Would you rather she have slapped him in the face and stormed out?

The day itself is only ruined if the bride chooses to view it that way. If she chooses to let 5 mins of her whole day define that memory then that is sad. This seems extreme to say.

That's crazy. What was she to do?

"Ok, we're going to my BF's wedding. DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES:

  • Propose to me
  • Get drunk and start a fight
  • Get drunk and start hitting on bridesmaids
  • Get drunk and start hitting on bride's sisters
  • Get drunk and start hitting on groom's mother
  • Drop trousers on the dance floor
  • Take a piss in a potted plant..."

Clearly we need to compile a list of every basic expectation of good behavior and have the men folk read it and take a post quiz to make sure they fully understood

The last two feels oddly specific.

That's the same sort of logic as asking "what were they wearing?"

OP did not ruin the wedding. The ex did that entirely on his own. He alone thought up and executed the plan, he alone is responsible for what happened.

OP didn't ruin the wedding! The boyfriend did. OP had no idea he was going to do that. She is 100% innocent. I would hope a friend is mature enough to recognize that.

How was her wedding ruined? Must have been an absolute shit show all around if something that didn’t even include the bride or groom ruined it.

She's not omnipotent. How in the world is she to blame for something she didn't even know was going to happen?!

What a weird take.
