Few things in life can tell you as much about a person as their wedding does. It’s one of the most important days in a couple’s life together, and you’d better believe that one way or another, the ceremony will give you a lock on what’s really important to them. For some folks it’s all about pomp and pageantry, family and friends. For others it’s a chance to flip off tradition, and do a bunch of unique to downright creepy stuff that says to the world, “This is me! And I reeeealy love Star Trek!”

Here are a few examples of the weirdest weddings we could find.

St. Patrick’s Day in Montreal is a big deal. Scratch that. It’s a huge deal. For a city already known for its hard-partying ways, St. Paddy’s Day is a great excuse to let it all spill out onto the streets in a giddy tidal wave of green beer, vomit and questionable decision-making. Much like the Irish, Quebecers are always on the look out for any excuse to throw a rowdy-ass party, and this is their opportunity to prove it to each other.

Who could forget cute little Samantha Micelli in Who’s The Boss? How about Jessie Spano from Saved By The Bell? There are countless child actresses we’ve come to know over the years, and yet most of them are doomed to the same fate: disappearing off the face of the earth faster than MC Hammer & Vanilla Ice doing the Macarena.

In recent years, young Hollywood starlets seem to have figured out a formula for staying in the lime-light a little longer – some of them blossoming into full-blown movie stars. While some opt for the ever-so-obvious sex-tape scandal, others choose less demeaning, yet equally controversial strategies for shedding their good-little-girl images – often coming in the form of sexually charged movie roles.

If a woman’s body is a beautiful and unique flower, a man’s body is that flower’s hairy, less graceful, often sweaty counterpart. Being naked, we find ourselves at our most vulnerable, not only to the elements, but also to the scrutiny of anyone exposed to our wobbly bits. While we can’t all look great naked, we all at least want to look palatable, and usually can if we avoid doing the following.

“Let me set some ground rules, ladies – There will be no biting, scratching, or hair pulling,” said our swishing host. “If you happen to like the same item as your fellow swisher, we’ll toss a coin – no violence allowed.”

If you haven’t attended a swishing party then you’re missing out on some nutty fun.  Having originated in London, “swishing” is the becoming the newest shopping craze to replace your mother’s Tupperware party.  It involves trading up clothes you don’t wear anymore with other people who feel the same way about their own duds – a great alternative to becoming the next candidate on an episode of “Hoarders.”

The beauty of these events is that all the clothes are free, in good condition, and you get to have a little party while you up the vintage section of your wardrobe.
