It was a lovely pleasant day back in May 1986.I had thought everything was going to be fine.Well it was until we got married.
It was a lovely church in Altenburg Gardens,London SW11.After doing the ceremony we done some photos outside the church,alogside the white rolls royce.We got in and off we went.No sooner I had sat back in my chair I
yelled ,the best man needs to collect the cake.We had literally driven no more than 300metres and fast approaching the main junction.
I lent out of the window and spoke to the first person I saw.It was a young guy.I asked him to tell the best man to not forget the cake at the local bakers.He run straight away to the church.He must have thought he was on camera.Never knew who he ever was but thanks whoever you were.
My wife had the right hump all the way to the reception(4 miles away).
Our chafffaur must of been wetting himself.
Thankfully the best man had already arranged it and the cake was at the reception.Unfortunately the Bridesmaids had gone to the wrong park for the photos and they running a little late.
Reception went fine,even the honeymoon was a breeze. As for our marriage.it lasted just 18months.Damn my dad got something right.My partner can't wait until we get married and she's still waiting after nearly 14years.Happy days!!!

I got married this year on 10th June at 12noon. It was the first game for England in the world cup the ceramony went a breeze except that the best man dropped the rings and all I could hear was him scrambling around on the floor to pick them up and watching my soon to be wife glower at him as if she could pounce and kill there and then. Driving to the reception two young lads shouted at as we were sat at some lights "in case you want to know mate, we are winning 1-0" Strangley enough I had other things on my mind by then.
Reception was a breeze. We had a sit down lunch and as I was going around all the tables I heard a waitress say to one of our guests "sorry but there were only ten prawn cocktails asked for and they are gone. I asked the wedding co-ordinator if there was any strings she could pull and one appeared" Had me in hysterics with the look on the waitress face. then again the Chef probably was not happy either.0 -
We got married in September 1998 in Dominican Republic. It was 41 degrees and far too hot. Dye from my hubby's shirt ran into his light coloured suit. When we were getting our photos done on the beach the photographer told my husband to pick a flower from my bouquet and throw it into the water and make a wish. I presumed he would say something romantic but uttered 'I wish it was colder!!!' I also tripped getting into our carriage and gave everyone an eyeful!!!Murphy's No More Pies Club Member No. 680
