Apart from that, the wedding went as planned...

From The Daily Mail:

A bridegroom gunned down his wife and best man at his wedding reception after announcing to horrified guests that he had a 'surprise' for them.

Rogerio Damascena, 29, then committed suicide at the event in Camaragibe, outside the city of Recife, in north-east Brazil, on Saturday. Renata Alexandre Costa Coelho, a 25-year-old lawyer, and best man Marcelo Guimaraes both died at the scene.

A Damascena conversion.

Perhaps the groom misheard the " 'til death us do part " bit

No, it was just a shotgun wedding.

Any chance the bridegroom found out his new bride knew the best-man a little too well?

D, from what to what?

VFTS, he was in a hurry then?

R, as Basil Brush would have said "Boom boom!"

Anon, nah, as expert criminologists we can completely rule out that as a motive.
