A bride shocked her wedding party by reading out her fiancé’s affair texts instead of her wedding vows.

Your wedding day should be the happiest day of your life, but that’s only really true if you’re completely sure that you’re marrying the right person.

So when one bride realized her husband-to-be wasn’t at all who she thought he was, she decided to take revenge – at the most awkward possible moment.

The woman stood up during her vows, and instead of making a heartfelt declaration of love, she shared text messages detailing her fiancé’s infidelity.

A bride, going by the pseudonym Casey, shared her shocking story in a personal essay for Body+Soul.

In it, she revealed how she was betrayed by her fiancé Alex (also a pseudonym), who was having an affair in the weeks leading up to their wedding.

Even more shockingly, Casey didn’t find out about the affair from Alex.

Instead, it was the mistress who reached out to her, sharing racy screenshots of the messages from her lover.

One saucy screenshot read: “This weekend. You and I. It is on, hot stuff. Bring your A game.”

Another said: “Your body is f***ing incredible. And s*** do you know how to use it. I wish my girlfriend had half the skills you do.”

“I miss you so much. I can’t stop thinking about L, S, F’ing you. I’ve never had this kind of connection before,” read a third.

Alongside these heartwrenching screenshots, the mistress also included an emphatic message.

It read: “I wouldn’t marry him. Will you?”

Understandably, Casey was shocked and shamed by the texts.

The bride said: “My girls were threatening all manner of violence against him. They insisted I call him immediately and call the wedding off.

“But I loved Alex. I wanted to marry Alex tomorrow. I was too shocked and sad to be angry. I didn’t call him.”

It was then that she came up with her ultimate revenge.

She continued: “When dawn finally broke, I awoke the girls and told them my decision – I was going to go ahead with the wedding as expected, and ‘out’ him in front of our friends and family.”

So, on the day of the nuptials, Casey got up and shared Alex’s secret with the world.

“It seems Alex is not who I thought he was,” she told the crowd. “I love all of you, and as horrible as this is, I’m glad you all are here.

“There will not be a wedding reception today, but instead, there will be a celebration of honesty, finding true love, and following your heart even when it hurts.”

She then read the messages out loud as the groom ran from the scene, followed by the best man.

Casey concluded: “It was certainly not the wedding day I had planned, but to our credit, it was one hell of a party.”
