This will be the first in a series of posts outlining exactly what not to do at a wedding both as a guest or as a client in some cases. All of these story’s are 100% true and happened to me along my DJ journey. I will give no identifying remarks to keep all party anonymous. This is all in good fun and remember safety first people!!!
First I wish I didn’t have to say this but never propose at another persons wedding…. like ever. If you just read this and are thinking that your instance is the exception.. you are wrong. don’t be that guy. I have seen this far to many times over the years and it makes my blood boil. On one specific instance, right after the first dance concluded, to spite his new mother in law the grooms adult son, walked his girl friend of just a month on the dance floor right into the spotlight and proposed…… SUUUUUUUUUUPER CLASSY…. DON’T BE THAT GUY.
Don’t pregame to hard. This is kind of a universal rule for life but really holds true at a wedding. I once saw a guest and his date pounding bottles…. That’s Right…. I said bottles plural for each of them. They had all the bottles stashed under the table during dinner which was all fine and dandy until the friend of the grooms date projectile vomited the red wine all over the beautiful white place settings and flowers and the 6 guests sitting across the table. In a rush to escape the area she knocked over the dinner table reveling the stash of empty bottles they had been drinking….. Don’t be that guy.
It should be obvious but i will state it anyway. Don’t wedding crash, Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn were in a movie…… A MOVIE PEOPLE!!! I assure you it never works in real life.
Close this round out with the grooms estranged father flipped a quarter at me as he muttered “Here’s your tip” only as a distraction so he could hurl his beer bottle at me for not playing his favorite song…. which his son told me specifically not to play….. don’t be that guy!!!
Health and Happiness people!!!
