Wedding present.

[enduro]

I saw a mate of mine today and we got talking about his brother who is no longer with use.
And we were laughing about how crazy he was, and one of the things that sticks in my mind was at my wedding several years ago. He turned up at the reception and i asked him where the wedding present was..He said he would get it later. The reception was at Herstmonceux Castle, we had a Marquee on the grounds. Well he did get it later!! On the side of the castle was scaffolding, so he got in a boat rowed over to the scaffolding, climbed up the scaffolding and knicked the canadian flag from the top of the castle :yikes: And gave to to my wife and i as a wedding present. :lol: The canadian university who own the castle were not happy. Any funny stories from your wedding day?

On my brother's stag night one of the guys jumped into a monumental sculptor's yards and pinched a small granite headstone thinking it was a funny wedding present. My brother kept it for a few years using it as a very large chopping board and eventually utilised it properly when his mother in law died. Yes, her headstone is his chopping board :lol:

At our wedding the hotel staff placed all our wedding gifts from our reception in our room for us to open. When we got up there, they had arranged all the gifts on the floor, but had taken all the tags off and placed them on a table for us to read. To this day, we still don't know who gave us what, and just had to send out generic thankyou replies....

the vicar got my name wrong during the wedding service. for each wedding he does, he puts post-it notes with the bride and groom's names on at the top of every page in his service book, but he'd forgotten to change the post-it on one page :yikes: I laughed and I think so did the rest of the congregation. it made for a lively day :lol:

I put a song on the list of music we wanted that my wife had banned me from including (Tubthumping by Chumbawumba) when it came on, I went a bit mad to it and managed to split my hired suit trousers from crotch to waistband...about two feet in front of where my boss (female) at the time was sitting. I had to walk out of the reception back to the room to change - all the way with my pants on show...luckily I was wearing some!
