* WorstWeddingEver: A particularly infamous one. The event that prompted Gwen to go to rehab all began as her being a one-woman wrecking crew at Lily's wedding. She showed up late to stand in as a bridemaid, brought her fellow alcoholic boyfriend with her, gave a drunken speech that made it seem like her sister only married her newlywed husband for his money, fell onto the wedding cake while dancing with said boyfriend, ruining it, and after undressing from her gown and stealing the limo in order to buy a new cake, she crashes the car into a nearby house. Fortunately, Lily and her husband are still HappilyMarried in spite of their terrible day and she was eventually able to deliver a well-deserved TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to her while in rehab.

Removed Lady Drunk because The Alcoholic is more fitting for Gwen, seeing how out of hand her drinking has become by the begining of the film; the lady drunk is typically less bad in her alcohol (ab-)use. Also, lady drunk refers to an older lady (at least 40+, up to really elderly), but Gwen is early to mid-30s.
