Alongside these heartwrenching screenshots, the mistress also included an emphatic message. “I wouldn’t marry him. Will you?” Casey was shocked and shamed by the texts. She says: “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. “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,” she continues.

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