Obviously we have to start with a romantic well thought out marriage proposal that is probably all too common with the man being too nervous to get the words fully right. Moving on we all know children can be very funny when they come out with some straight forward sensible things which we did not think about in advance.

The Really Big Question

For months Bill had been Lynn’s devoted admirer.  At long last he had collected sufficient courage to ask her the momentous question.

“There are quite a lot of advantages to being a bachelor,”   Bill began, “but there comes a time when one longs for the companionship of another being, a being who will regard one as perfect, as an idol; whom one can treat as one’s absolute own; who will be kind and faithful when times are hard; who will share one’s joys and sorrows.”

To his delight, Bill saw a sympathetic gleam in Lynn’s eyes.

Then she nodded in agreement, “I think it’s a wonderful idea! . . . . Can I help you pick out the puppy?”

Children at Weddings

These are always good for a laugh except for the couples involved. However I am not entirely sure that this humorous story was not a true event.

The guests were all seated. The parents of the bride and groom had been escorted down the aisle and seated in the front row on their respective sides. The groomsmen were in their places. The bridesmaids had each enjoyed their moment of glory as they individually walked down the aisle and took their places opposite the groomsmen. The ring bearer was the next to enter the door to the chapel. He was adorable in his little tux, just 3 years old and the bride’s brother.

Everyone smiled as they watched him begin his trip down the aisle. Then the smiles changed to puzzled looks. As the little boy took a step, he let go of the ring cushion with his right hand, raised it in front of him curving his fingers, scratching at thin air and going, “Grrrrr”, as loud as he could.

On the next step, he held the cushion with his right hand, let go with his left, raising it in front of him with curved fingers, scratched at thin air and again went, “Grrrrr”, as loud as he could. He continued alternating hands and going, “Grrrrr”, all the way down the aisle to the alter.

The ceremony continued without a hitch. At the end, the minister couldn’t control his curiosity any longer and asked why the boy made such strange motions and sounds as he walked down the aisle.

The boy replied, “That was the only way I knew how to be a ring bear.”

See what I mean.

At The Wedding

Attending a wedding for the first time, a little girl whispered to her mother, “Why is the bride dressed in white?”

“Because white is the colour of happiness, and today is the happiest day of her life,” her mother tried to explain, keeping it simple.

The child thought about this for a moment, then said, “So why’s the groom wearing black?”

Another Wedding variation

The little boy attending a wedding for the first time turns to his father and asks, “Why is the bride wearing white?”

His father replies, “So that the dishwasher matches the fridge and washing machine.”

Wedding Vows

During the wedding rehearsal, the groom approached the pastor with an unusual offer: “Look, I’ll give you $100 if you’ll change the wedding vows. When you get to the part where I’m supposed to promise to love, honour, obey and be faithful to her forever, I’d appreciate it if you’d just leave that part out.

He passed the minister a $100 bill and walked away satisfied.

On the day of the wedding, when it came time for the grooms vows, the pastor looked the young man in the eye and said: “Will you promise to prostrate yourself before her, obey her every command and wish, serve her breakfast in bed every morning of your life, and swear eternally before God and your lovely wife that you will not ever even look at another woman, as long as you both shall live?”

The groom gulped and looked around, and said in a tiny voice, “Yes”, then leaned toward the pastor and hissed: “I thought we had a deal!”

The pastor put a $100 bill into the grooms hand and whispered: “She made me a better offer.”

Moral Never under-estimate the value and power of your Church Minister.
