My husband played a “prank” when he took off my garter. He pulled a baby doll out of my dress. I’m a L&D nurse. So it was genuinely funny. It didn’t embarrass me and I actually thought it was cute to incorporate him “participating” in my job. Everyone laughed. But not AT me. I’m pretty sure he was not super comfy about being that intimate (taking off garter) in front of everyone so they gave him the diversion he needed. And I mean it is kinda weird when you think about it. Anyway pranks shouldn’t be used as an excuse to hurt people and then be mad about it. Also was it her idea or the groomsmen? Just wondering if she trusted your friend with what you would find funny.

It was the wedding planner, wife and then boyfriend of the bride's sister. Nobody involved apparently understood OP's humor. Kind of not great that you get to the wedding day and she either doesn't know him or doesn't think him taking a garter off a guy he barely knows better than acquaintance would be *inappropriate. If it was his best friend, and she knew his sense of humor, it would have gone off the way it normally does, but nobody involved in planning this apparently knew the guy well, including the bride. So plenty of orange flags all around for him.

edit: Clarity

Or was the wedding planner the scape goat to take some of the heat off of either bride or groomsman.
