So this weekend I had the privilege of emceeing my first wedding. I think having Harrison as a partner made it alot easier since we share the same sense of humor. The evening had some great moments.

There is much comedy in dancing and Tony knew it as he performed all the dance moves from the movie Hitch. "Slow Thriller" is my favorite.

All the centerpieces were romantic comedy DVDs (although I seriously object to The Princess Bride being labeled a romantic comedy). So for fun, Harrison and I did a survey of how many movies the men in the room had seen. I think Harrison came up with the best line "Count on your fingers as the names of the titles are read, if you've seen more than ten, use your wife's or girlfriend's fingers cuz clearly you have one." And then later,

Me: I've seen only 7 I'm proud to say. That's less than half.
Harrison: I've seen 10.
Me: Well, clearly you've been on more dates than I have.

So whenever the glasses were clinked, instead of the couple kissing, we played a game. The game was either name that tune from a romantic comedy or the imitation kissing game. The latter game turned out to be way more popular since it was far more humiliating. As we, uh, randomly selected married couples from the audience to demonstrate a kiss and then Tony and Monica would have to imitate it. Well, the first couple we chose set the bar way high and I think the whole thing kinda backfired on Tony and Monica, ha ha. Anyways, we chose our pastor and his wife as one of the lucky random selections. I knew there was a huge risk in embarrassing my pastor. One main reason is he's basically the emcee every Sunday morning. He has far more opportunities to embarrass me. I counted the cost, and it was still worth it I think. Kim is totally going to get me back though. Too bad we're going through Luke right now at church and not Hebrews.

The wedding video was pretty awesome too. We did a spoof of "24". I was really impressed with the editing. I'd like to put it online, but it might be too big. It always amazes me what people laugh at. Some of the stuff people laughed loudest on, I thought was only chuckle worthy. At this point, anyone who has seen my stuff knows where I contribute. If it involves a dummy falling off from somewhere high or a fake appendage, that's my signature, ha ha.

Anyways, we sat a table where some of the people didn't know us and they asked if we were professionals, ha ha. I was like, "No, they just asked us to do it cuz we goof off alot." They couldn't believe it was our first time either. I think most of the reason why the evening was great though was cuz Tony and Monica pushed for such a wacky wedding reception. I never seen someone work so hard to add so many funny details. Good job guys!
