Covered Wagon Weddings

Second Rule of Wedding Guests: there will always be people who can’t attend your special day.

First Rule of Wedding Guests: there will always be one person who doesn’t attend because he or she is already attending another wedding.

Nowhere in the rules does it say, “said person will not be attend your ceremony because she is going to a covered wagon wedding.”

Yep. A mutual friend just informed Chris and me that she is playing the violin in a covered wagon wedding on the same day as our final ceremony. I would love to link you to a page that shows what that is, but apparently whomever is having this affair is the very first person to do so and doesn’t feel like broadcasting their covered=wagonness to the world.

Okay, maybe the groom won’t be dressed up like a Star Wars character, but I think you get the point.

According to our friend, the covered wagon wedding party will circle the campfire with said covered wagons, where they will spend the night before and after the wedding. Make of that what you will, but remember, I’m not a camper, so you can imagine my horror at the thought of covered wagon showers and covered wagon bathrooms.

What the craziest wedding you’ve ever attended? Please, don’t say mine as a) it has happened yet and b) you’ll bruise my fragile little ego. Remember, I’m shy and easily scarred.
