Weddings are a time for joy, laughter, reunions and celebrations. Family,
friends, co-workers and acquaintances come together to celebrate a union of two people. Stories are told about the bride and
groom, the parents and others in the wedding party. Some of those stories are hilarious. I recall being The Best Man at a friend's wedding. There was a heating grill,
at the front of the church and I began to perspire. I had the Groom's ring, in my pocket and all I could envision was
dropping the ring into the grill. My hand was shaking as I took the ring, from my pocket and passed it to the minister. He
had it and he was responsible and I could relax..have you been there? Do you have a wedding story that you would like to share? Contact information at the bottom of each page. Read and
enjoy.
Pickled One
of my most memorable memories was from my oldest brother's wedding. This was back, when you brought your own food and
music was usually by an accordion player. The reception was held at a lodge which was a two story building. You ate upstairs
and you danced downstairs. My brother Sam and I were not old enough to drink and the only other beverage was water. While
everyone was downstairs, we ate what we could and drank all the juice from the pickle bottles. Well there was lots of pickles
and plenty of juice. Later, when they were clearing up to go home, someone noticed that there was no juice in the pickles.
When they found out it was Sam and I, we were pickled. I guess we thought that pickle juice was alcoholic as we often heard the term.."so and so is pickled."
(Much too much to drink)
