Groom caught cheating at his wedding reception

Groom caught cheating at his wedding reception — by his father in-law

A German groom has brought about an abrupt end to his wedding when he was caught cheating with a waitress at the reception. To make matters worse, he was caught by his new father-in-law.

According to the story from Austria, which has emerged some months after the event, the pair snuck into the kitchen for a secret rendezvous just hours after the newlywed said “I do” to his bride.

The father-in-law went into the kitchen for a snack but was instead confronted by his son-in-law’s infidelity.

Austria’s Vorarlberg Online reported that the groom wanted to experience singlehood one last time before he tied the knot. His timing was obviously a bit off.

Understandably, the bride’s father called off the celebrations, turning off the music and sending everyone home without an explanation.

The bride asked for a divorce from the wedding registry on the same day, but was refused.

Under Austrian law, she had to stay with her adulterous husband for six months before they were allowed to call it quits.

The court eventually granted the divorce and the groom has now remarried — to none other than the waitress he was caught with at the wedding reception.
