The wedding was a mess. The church was hot (no air conditioning) and we're all sittin up in there cursing and sweating because you know we didn't start on time. The bridesmaids come down the aisle wearing burgundy dresses-which would have been aight if they were all the SAME shade. I think I counted about 2 or 3 different shades of burgundy-and why would you pick that color for a summer wedding?? Then my friend comes down the aisle with her mom, she looks great! Until I find out later that this beautiful gown is BORROWED from her mom's friend! Come on now! You could have gotten your own...
The ceremony was fine...bada bing...you're now husband and wife, smiles all around. I'm sure we're all thanking God at this point because we are simply dying for some fresh air. I know I was RUNNING up out of the church.
No, actually they're not. We get in there...plastic plates and silverware and cups. Water stains on the ceiling. No dance floor. The guests get there and we're waiting to eat...and waiting...and waiting. So people are up in there saying stuff like, "WTF?? I'm hongry" and "When the hell are we gonna eat?" The bride and groom show up about a HALF HOUR later, so you know a sista is runnin to the buffet table outside...only to find that the food they served was the same food I could have bought at Publix on the way over...cause that was where it was from! Chicken wings, cheese and crackers, and a itty bitty platter of shrimp (which guests are about to go to blows over). I get what I can and go back to the reception.
Maybe they did not have enough money for a eloborate wedding..!!!!!
Marriage is about love and committment.. It does not matter how much money you spend on it or if YOUR DRESS IS BORROWED!
