Halloween is Friday, so this week we’re going to focus on something really scary: wedding day disasters. From toppled cakes to sick brides to errant wildlife, wedding disasters can be hilarious — if they’re not happening to you. (Search YouTube for “wedding disasters,” and you’ll get more than 250 videos and the suggestion to also search for “funny wedding bloopers.”) Even celebrity bride Katherine Heigl has wedding day horror stories to tell.

On Wednesday, we’ll share some advice on how to prepare (and cope) with disasters on your big day. Come back Friday to learn about wedding insurance.

For today, click on YouTube, and settle in for some laughs at someone else’s expense. By Friday, you’ll have the tools for dealing with it all.
