From buddy Wed May 10 12:06:31 1995 Date: Wed, 10 May 1995 12:06:27 Subject: Best Man stuff _____________ The Best Man's toast to the bride & groom at my wedding was: "... and, remembering Socrates, who said: 'By all means, a man should marry. If it succeeds, he will be happy beyond his dreams. If it does not, he will become a Philosopher.' Here's hoping we never have to listen to Richard's philosphy..." (gulp gulp gulp)" Also, I was told of a wedding in which the ceremony stopped, the Bride and Groom turned around and the Bride spoke; "Here's the moment when all former boyfriends of the Bride are required to return their keys to her apartment..." ; A shower of keys rains into the aisle and, somewhere in the back a voice is heard " ... WHEN was it ever locked?" After the laughter and whispering died down, the Groom then spoke, saying - " ... and now ladies, you must return the Grooms keys to him..." but only his Mother stepped forward, she pinned a key to the Grooms lapel saying " promise you won't lose this again, Dearie." Imagine how much fun this would be if it was pulled off by the friends and family, as a surprise to the bride and groom! I tried to pull it on Heather.D.Santaw[Rielly] but couldn't get support on the other end.
