Wedding bells
It occured to me a while back that there were things that were really not kosher to do at a wedding. The point was brought home to me earlier this week during a dinner party. No matter how drunk one is at the wedding, one must not1. Go up on stage on the pretext of toasting the bride and the groom and then turn around to his girlfriend and propose! Can you say stealing thunder?
2. Be the groom that promises his new mother-in-law that he will turn "her liability into an asset", meaning her daughter. I don't really care if the groom is in the finance industry, it's just poor speech making skill.
3. Wax lyrical about how the ex was much better but he (or she) had decided the other half of the bridal couple deserved him/ her more.
4. Announce to the entire room that not only has the family gained a new son, the family has gained also a new grandson! Talk about double happiness.
Of course there are the usual, groom must not hit on the maids of honour type of things, but these were the recent, more jaw dropping ones.
Now, who said weddings weren't fun?
