Emliy tells us more.
Hey guys, I'm the OP. To clear a few things up, he didn't exactly ruin the wedding. He and I have always been able to joke back and forth, and quoting shows in fitting situations is almost like a contest to us, to see who can quote a show or movie that matches the situation the fastest and the best. Before the wedding, I was winning at this game, and he saw our wedding as the PERFECT opportunity to take the lead. This wouldn't have been so bad if I wasn't visibly shaking and feeling like I was about the puke throughout the whole ceremony. Don't get me wrong, I love him with all my heart and knew it was the right decision to marry him, but I was still a bundle of nerves. So when he said "Rachel," I immediately burst into tears, because my immediate thought was he was either cheating on me or in love with someone else (I knew the Friends quote, but when you're that invested in what's happening around you, your first thought isn't exactly going to be Ross Geller). So I guess I technically ruined the wedding a little more than him with my horrible sobbing that wouldn't stop even after I had forgiven him... After I calmed down, we went through with the rest of the ceremony. No slaps across the face, no leaving at the altar. We've been together since 8th grade, so I wasn't about to leave him after over 12 years of nothing but love and care.

If you can't laugh on your wedding day, then boy, your marriage is going to be fun /sarcasm. It's just one day, don't take it too seriously. It's everything that comes afterwards that's important. I do agree with #1, hah.
If he can quote friends he is a good husband, I'm telling you that right now
I like him... Keep him...
Keep him or #14 here will snatch him up.
Happy married life OP. Don't let such petty things overshadow memories of your special day.
It's a bit shocking and confusing at first, but when you understand it's hilarious. Laugh it up and enjoy the fact he has a good sense of humor.
That's kind of the whole point
That's awesome! Defimately an improvement.
Stop being so stubborn, he married u didn't he
I'd worry if I was marrying anybody that makes Friends quotes at all, let alone during the ceremony...
GTFO

Glad you were able to provide some context, OP, since that 300-character limit leaves so much room for (mis)interpretation! It sounds like you've got a good attitude about all this and will be able to laugh at it when you tell the story later. Congratulations!
