The end

When my oldest sister got married the third time, I was actually old enough to go to and remember the wedding. The groom was so drunk he dropped the ring and it rolled down the aisle. Is it any wonder the marriage didn't last?

When my younger sister got married she allowed her future mother-in-law to help arrange things. Unfortunatly this led to the bride sewing her wedding dress on the day of the wedding, a relocation of the wedding a few days before the actual ceremony, oh and the minister arrived an hour later than the guests. Apparently "mom-in-law" changed the time without notifying anyone else.

I forgot my bouquet on the day of the wedding, so my sister had to go back to my place to get it. She missed my walk down the aisle, but arrived just in time to say her verses for the service.

That's classic.

Anyone think it's weird to read a passage from WATCHMEN instead of one of those overused Bible verses?

No, I don't think that's weird at all. I think the wedding should reflect the personalities of the two people getting married. My wife and I wanted to use different music but we didn't want to alienate any of the older guests either. What we ended up doing was using string quartet versions of our favorite songs. The groomsmen/brides maids walked down to a string version of Death Cab for Cutie's Marching Bands of Manhattan. The people that knew it loved it and at the same time it didn't seem too out there for anyone. Same thing with me having a Batman groom's cake. Everybody that knows me thought it was perfect, and that's what matters. It's very important that the wedding be a celebration about the two of you...not what should or shouldn't be expected.

I was at a friends wedding a few years ago. During the ceremony the priest (who was Indian or something) was using his fingers making points of what a marrige is...he got to the 3rd point and was using his middle finger... He kept talking about his 3rd point all the while flipping off the congregation. So all of us in teh pews are at the point of tears trying to hold back from busting out in hysterics. At the reception it was all we could talk about...how the priest must not have been in the country long as he had no clue he was giving us the bird.

Then I had a little too much too drink (yay open bar) and the brides beset friend and I crashed some coporate function in the next ball room.

I will try to find the picture...

I had a Batman grooms cake for mine.

Ha!

I had a Superman one!


The lady wouldnt make me a Batman one because I wanted it in the shape of the bat logo in all chocolate. She said it would melt and make everybody's teeth black. Oh well.

 

[Halloween]

But congrats on getting married.


Our preacher said the whole thing about families and how it is a circle, like in the movie I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry. Almost cracked me up. haha.

 

[tzarinna]

Pretty cake, perfect shade of blue.

During my wedding, the Maid of Honors dress fell off.
It was a two piece, skirt and top, and the skirt fell off..

Was quite funny.

story about my ex girlfriends uncle

he was the big prankster in the family, always pranking people at their weddings. so now he's getting married and is all worried that everyone is going to get him back. Wedding and everything goes fine, no pranks, he and his bride go to their hotel room. the next morning they are laying in bed and he asks if they should order room service so they do. they say they want breakfast for 2, but a voice from under the bed says, make that breakfast for 8 lol

 

[Logan's Runt]

Didn't happen.

 

[The Guard]

Colorado?

No.

Only if the passage is from Rorschach.

Groom to his wife: "As you stood in firelight, sweltering. Bloodstain on your chest like map of violent new continent. I felt cleansed. I felt the dark planet turn under my feet and knew what cats know that makes them scream like babies in night. I looked at sky through smoke heavy with human fat and God was not there. The cold, suffocating dark goes on forever and we are alone. Live our lives, lacking anything better to do. Devise reason later. Born from oblivion; bear children, hell-bound as ourselves, go into oblivion."

Might kill the mood of the wedding.

 

[The Guard]

No, it's...not that one. Lol.

My wife and I were married by a Justice of the Peace.

However, in regards to her best friends wedding... oh, what fun. She insisted my wife and daughter be there a week early for dress fittings. Now if we hadn't lived 8 hours away, this would not have been a problem, but it was. The bride was a toal bee-otch the whole week. She had told my wife and I that she would be providing a hotel room for us, she didn't. Long story short, by the time of the weeding I was so pissed off at her, I gave serious thought to pulling a nasty prank on her. I was going to have my wife find out what "special undies" she would be wearing, and I would replace them with the same style, but 2 sizes too small. Seemed like it would have been fun. I also wanted to make a rather rude toast at the reception regarding the ex-boyfrined of her's who was in attendance.
