. . . would think most women would think it incredibly embarrassing to be exposed like that in front of family and friends.

Similar thing happened at my friends' wedding, except it happened during pictures right before the ceremony. I did not see anything, because I was the best man, and her back was to me. (That's right, she was facing the chapel full friends and family. Better them than your enemies, though, right?)
I only knew something happened because there was a bit of commotion and a little polite laughter from the crowd.
Then my friend's new mother-in-law started asking who's camera she was holding. Apparently she was getting a few shots on other people's cameras, and had snapped one just in sync with the. . . event. She found the owner, but she did
not hand the cam to the owner and tell them to delete the image - she held the camera and found out how to delete it herself. Boy, if everyone were as on the ball as she is, there might be no OCC at all!
So I figure it's just as well that I missed everything: as the Best Man, I did not need the bride's breasts in my head. Besides, I had the Maid of Honor to occupy my brain, (she is extremely cute, and her dress just didn't. . . uh, seal, around the top. And I tell you that was a terrible spot to be on!)
My best look was while she and I were signing as witnesses. So I had 30 seconds where I could take as good a look as I wanted - I knew she would not look up and catch me. But, all eyes were on us! So you can bet that if I had, not only would someone have noticed, there would probably be pictures to memorialize the moment. I am sure that it's embarrassing for a bride when her dress slips low; but I'll bet it's worse to be the photographed staring down a bride's maid's dress during the ceremony.
