An Unfortunate Wedding

So late last week you might remember I posted about the tornado warnings, and subsequently the tornadoes downtown in Oklahoma City. I also mentioned several proms were interrupted, and the kids had to take shelter. Well, downtown in the convention center an Indian (India, Indian. NOT Native American) wedding was taking place. The young lady and her groom were hosting a 400 person wedding (apparently Indian weddings are elaborate). Also at the convention center was a teen volleyball tournament. Both parties were forced to seek shelter together, and it was apparent the bride was devastated (there is video of her crying). The story continues that the cheerleaders with the volleyball party changed the words to perform the cheers for her, but also encouraged her and her groom to perform some of the traditional dances for them all. It was really sweet, because while it didn’t make up for the interruption, she was interviewed later and said it cheered her up enough to quit crying and enjoy the dancing. It reminded me of a local jewelry store. They have a store promise. If you buy your wedding rings from them, and have an outdoor wedding, and it also happens to rain, your rings are free. I actually thought that was a good promotional idea. Have you seen, heard, or experienced any unfortunate wedding events?

Yeah, at my own... the groom got something in his eye and was crying at his own wedding. After the ceremony and dinner, his brother took him to the emergency and had it frozen and flushed out. When he came back he had a big bandage over his eye. Gave me a scare.

That is a great promotional idea. It was sweet that the teenagers picked up on the bride's dismay and tried their best to help her, she will always remember that act of kindness.
