Oh, I survived the big fat Catholic wedding. |
|
The ceremony only lasted 50 minutes. No mass.
Got back for the pre-dinner cocktails and hors d'ouvres to learn 'beer and wine only' until AFTER DINNER.
KISS MY ASS! I don't DO beer and wine. I thought this was supposed to be a class act. They spent over 70 grand on the freaking wedding. Beer and wine? BAH!
Got in car and drove to my room (separate building, BIG resort) and got my Scotch, a glass, and my ice bucket. Filled bucket. Back to reception.
Frequent trips to car. Ahhhhh..... :-)

1. you sure these were real Catholics? |
|
maybe it's just my Irish Catholic background but there's something down right unchristian about serving only beer & wine before dinner.

2. Reason: "We don't want the young folks to get drunk too soon." |

Well how about us old folks? That really sucked.

6. The band was from NOLA. They were good. |
|
11 members. Hell of a trumpet player. At first I thought there was one lone white guy playing bass in the back (:wtf:?), but turned out he was just kinda light skinned. Blues, R & B, R & R, and some slow stuff for us geezers. I actually danced with Miz t. And sang, but only in her ear. Went to bed around 1. WAAAAYYYYY late for me.
