Did people actually leave when asked to leave?

Nope. The wedding coordinator was all, "don't make us come around and take your name."

It was all like this

I seriously thought this would just end up being an over reaction on the bride's part when she started having to pay people. I'm absurdly gleeful that it turned out to be just as awesome as it could be!

Thank you for this wonderful gift we have received this evening. I have been thoroughly entertained reading, Standby Wedding Foolishness 2014. It's been a pleasure.

NitaX, you are a storyteller extraordinaire. I usually just lurk.

Thanks for the laughs on a sleepless night!

[soxin2]

I wish you were at some of the weddings I have been to. Your take would have been amazing!

[secretlyevil]

I'm dying picturing this.

So why wasn't the bride calling up her non-RSVPing family and demanding their RSVP???

Wait, this is the same bride with standby wedding guests so...never mind my logical question.

"Sure as my fro is big" might be my favorite expression ever. Unfortunately, as a white girl with no fro, I don't think I can figure out how to work it into conversation.

You know, when I was in junior high, I had the tragic white girl fro because my mom has stick straight hair and didn't know what to so with my curly mess. So I think I can say this. YESSSSSS!

I'm crying. This is fantastic.

What a night! This recap made my Saturday so we can at least thank the bride for the material

So, you know iammalcolmx got my H watching RHOA. I was telling him at dinner that folks were looking around like WHO GONE CHECK ME BOO! And he was like - WHUT? So, I did this neckroll and said it was some RHOA type stuff. He hollered with laughter.

I'd bet real monies that the bride knew they were coming but was trying to save a buck.

Here lies voodoo after reading Malcolm X's recap, Nita's story, and pixy's standby reply.

[NitaX]

So, the bride and groom are having brunch where I am this am. Yall know I asked to see her ring, right?

It is gorgeous, but this is my ratchet contribution today.
