Would you like to share something that was memorable about a wedding?
Can be your wedding or someone elses.
It funny, sad, awe inspiring, anything as long as it was memorable.
When Rick and I got married, after 4 years of living together, it was on short notice. We set the date for just two weeks away. We got married out at the lake.
I really kind of wanted an arch, and I thought my guys could put something together for me, but there just wasn’t enough time so I nixed it.
The day of the wedding my son, who was 17 at the time, and Rick went out to the location to get everything ready while I stayed at home to get ready.
So I ride up in a white Bronco driven by my son. He gets out and escorted me to the “alter” beside Rick. Then he stepped aside.
It took me a moment to realize…I was standing under an arch! My dear son had just busted his butt pulling these thick, pretty vines down off of the trees and creating an arch. To hold it up right he climbed out on the branch of a tree carrying one of the vines and tied it to the tree, then went down and tied the other end to the arch.
When I realized what he had done I looked at him, my eyes filling with tears. He just smiled back gently. Sigh. I’m really glad I was nice to my kids when they were growing up.
There was only one problem…the vines were poison ivy! I guess my baby swelled up so badly by the next day he had to go to the ER.
I got a little poison ivy too. Everybody there did!

My father is deceased. When the pastor asked, “Who gives this women to be this man’s wife,” my son stepped up and said, “On behalf of her father, Alfred Joseph, I do.” It was obvious he had rehearsed it. It was so touching.
I have the best son in the universe.
My son. He wore the hat in honor of my dad, too. Dad collected hats.

Rick and I clean up good, for grease monkeys I got the dress for $3 at a garage sale.

Yes. Thanks. I had it right in the details, though!
I was best man at a wedding many years ago when the minister who was going over the protocol with us seemed close to tears. He must have noticed our concern as he told us he had just learned his wife had left him.
I sobbed when my friends Marianne and Belinda got married. I calmed down when Steve and Joe tied the knot; I only shed a few tears. I was beaming when Keith and Jason said their vows; I got misty eyed on the drive home.
^^^ You’re a highly-evolved man who continues to evolve.
A friend and I attended his sister’s wedding. They were serving mimosas. I drank like 5 or 6 bottles. We crashed the bride’s car in the parking garage at her wedding. We’re all still friends. It was a wild night though.
I attended my female boss’s wedding. After the wedding she grabbed my testicles,and butthole from behind. I told her that was sexual assault. She said that because she was quiting to move off with her husband, that wasn’t the case. For years she hated me,so I didn’t expect the groping. She just “Trumped” me. The other girls at the wedding ended up at a strip club. I don’t really remember the rest of the night,or how I got home.
I have a couple others that I think would be too vulgar for this forum.
When my sister was getting married, the cameraman brought a drone to make the video. My uncles were fascinated with it. They even made a special photo of it. That flying spider thingy got a special mention. One of them would even prank the guests at a wedding he attended shortly after, by telling them their wedding is “meh” because they didn’t bring a drone, pretty sure the guests don’t even have any idea what a drone is anyways. (It’s a relatively new thing here, don’t expect people to know about drones, especially if they’re older people.) We all had a chuckle with their fascination. I mean, imagine two men in their fifties going eight year old over a strange new toy.
Oh. We bought a remote helicopter at Christmas for one of the 8 year old grandkids. I couldn’t get it away from Rick to wrap it up!
