I have an alias bed="vim ~/.bashrc && . ~/.bashrc" in my .bashrc. Now every now and then I'd like to run bed but return the vim with an exit status 1 so the source command doesn't execute.

TL;DR – How to Exit Vim If you made some changes and would like to keep them, type :wq and press Enter / return. If you made some changes and would rather discard them, type :q! and press Enter / return.
You can press the Esc key. Type SHIFT Z Z to save and exit. Type SHIFT Z Q to exit without saving.
