When Jennifer Lawrence looks back on her wedding day, all she sees is PAIN.  She called it “awful”. Like a lot of brides, Jennifer found it hard to have fun because it was so stressful, and she was so worried about her guests.  She got married in October in Rhode Island and was “freaking out” about her guests being cold.  Most people reassured her they were fine, her mother wasn’t so polite.  She told Jennifer, “It’s freezing out there, your grandmother almost died!” The chaos actually started at the rehearsal dinner, when Jennifer booted Robert De Niro. She says, “I looked over and I saw Bob, who doesn’t know anybody and he’s kind of wandering around. “I immediately was like, ‘No, this isn’t what he wants to be doing.  I don’t want him here.’  So I went over and whispered, I was like, ‘Go home’ and he was nice . . . he like talked to my parents and was polite . . . but I was like, ‘Go.’ “That just genuinely made me feel better.”
