Yesterday, I attended my 1st white folks wedding. One of my best work friends got married & I was there to witness.
The bride & groom are both 47 years old. She was absolutely radiant. He was looking pretty dapper himself. Neither one has children. This is hubby #3 for her & wifey #2 for him.
It was a garden ceremony & despite the less than favorable temp (about 55 degrees) & my 3.5 inch heels sinking into the ground (it rained the night before), it was a lovely event.
Once the booze started flowing, it was on! I get a kick outta watching white folks getting their drink on then trying to dance....hilarious!
My faith in finding & marrying my one true love has once again been restored. Ya'll know I tend to lose it every so often.
Congrats to Mr. & Mrs. Key!
PS When (notice how I've gone from if to when?) I do marry, I'll give you all plenty of notice to save your nickels & dimes for my destination wedding!
awww that's sweet. i'll be in stl for a wedding on august 9th. but 'dey' black folks!
ReplyDeletei am glad you had a chance to support your friends. and yes, the garden type of weddings are sooo beautiful and quaint. i love those myself.
That's sweet. Hope you can stay married once you tie the knot girlfriend.
ReplyDeleteI would love to see you get your happiness Mo.
ReplyDeleteNever been to a garden type wedding mocha.
ReplyDeleteYes sir! That's the plan. I'm 35 years old & I haven't waited this long to fuck up now. When I do, it will be everlasting. I have the faith!
ReplyDeleteAwww...thanks Rob. I hope I'm not grating my friends' nerves with all my "happily ever after" rants.
ReplyDeleteThat is TRULY the best part... especially the Electric Slide... *SMH*
ReplyDeleteOf course you are. lol
ReplyDelete...and they had an open bar! I was just sitting, watching, sipping & laughing!
ReplyDeleteCONGRATS to them!!!
ReplyDeleteWell just so you know, Honey and Ms. Mo.. watching white people drink and dance is as funny to you as watching black people swim without getting their hair wet is to us ! LOL :) :)
ReplyDeleteElectric sliding my ass outta here. . . .lol
Congrats to the happy couple. My day shall come one day I guess.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a great time Queen. Weddings tend to make you reflect on love a lot more.
ReplyDeleteWhew there is hope for me yet!!! ROFL Honestly turning 40 I was beginning to think awww forget it. but if she can marry for her third time I can get at least 1 in!!! LOL
ReplyDeletemy best friend had a garden wedding and it was beautiful. whenever the right man comes along.....i hope to have a beach wedding.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait til I get an invite to some nuptials with your name on it *getting my passport now* LOL
ReplyDeleteWow! Five marriage between the two of them?!! Lawd...it betta work this time. They got some experience under their belt that's for sure. LOL
ReplyDeleteWhat's wonderful is they keep trying and they still believe in marriage. I say good for them!
HAHAHA!! So true, but not me! I have 1/2 breed hair (lol) so unlike a lot of my sisters, I won't go to the beach & avoid the water.

Please I would jump in and worry about my hair later!!! ROFL!! Takes the fun out of swimming!!! LOL
ReplyDeletemy best friend got married in the bride's aunt's backyard. It was fixed up really really nice but it was HOT AS HELL in AUGUST IN HOTASS GEORGIA. Thats the only one that I was in that was outside; I did attend another one that was outside, actually two others - ALL of them were really nice. Yeah, I know I always say weddings are about as exciting as watching pigs fart and paint dry - but it was the reception that was off the hook....we parited HARDER THAN STEEL!
ReplyDeleteSo now...I just show up in time for the reception. I doubt very seriously if I am missed at the wedding ceremony. LOL.
For real! Even if it didn't, I think they'd just ride it out at this point.
ReplyDeleteThe best man (groom's brother) referred to them as Dan & Roseanne! Minus the kids, he's about right! LOL
you are cracking me up, Blessed!
ReplyDeleteLOL
Good, you are back on the cruise list. LOL
ReplyDelete*giggling*
ReplyDeleteYou should be ashamed, you big ole bootleg guest... don't come for the reason for the party, but you come for the party.
ReplyDeleteSMH LOL
Why marry at all? To let the world know?
ReplyDeleteTo let God know? He already knows if your heart is not really in it?
He watched you make a fool yourself before at the alter...remember.
I say take the money invested wisely and if after a few years you're
still together then get marry or use money for something else, a home,
college or whatever!
*not romantic ..just practical*
Hey, I STILL bring a gift - thats all folks really care about, right? and somebody SEEING them in their lil wedding dress - they all look the same to me, more or less.
ReplyDeleteI drop off my gift at the reception and its ALL GOOOD. Thats right, I show up FOR the party.
Like I said, ain't nobody missing me up in the sanctuary. LOL...unless I AM THE GROOM or unless I HAVE to be in that mug as a groomsman

THAT is what scares the bejeezus out of me right there! I used to think I was afraid of making the commitment of marriage. I have come to realize that I am not afraid of the commitment. I am afraid of the stuff that leads to divorce in so many relationships.
ReplyDeleteThats cool to even after 5 failed marriages they're gonna try it again... Sometimes I guess you gotta do something til you get it right...
ReplyDeleteMe and the Dude are going to a beach wedding next month.. with a bunch of white folks (as you call them,,lol)... Im betting that its gonna be interesting and given the fact that I dont know anyone there, its gonna be just that much more pressure for me, cuz believe it or not Im not a very social person... So I guess it would be one thing to go to a wedding and reception and then go home... but I gotta spend 6 days with these people... Hopefully I'll have put enough alcohol in my system to get up and jimmy jam with them... lol
But I like how you say when you marry... Im a hopeful old sap, and I tend to think that even the most unbelievable can happen... So, be patient, and be watchful... you'll be spreading the joyous news sooner than you may think... then who knows... you might fall so deep in love you wanna have another offspring...
Ok, I know.. I was doing so good til I opened my big fat mouth... lol You know Im kidding...
Did she say you getting married was unbelievable?
ReplyDelete(Yeah, I'm instigating. Ol heffa got other folks calling me buttery ass)
*snickering in the background*
ReplyDeleteDont start no mess Woman... Im trying to stay out of trouble here...I get in enough on my own... and who called you Buttery Buns Deedles...? Point em out... lol
ReplyDeleteAnd that aint what I mean... when I said unbelieveable... dammit..
ReplyDeleteI'm glad Rob stays away from the marriage topic. That's the last thing I need his butt to read!
ReplyDeleteI know that's not what you meant either, lol. You set yourself up though.
Im trying to be right in here... I think I did really well at staying off here as much as I did today... And Im just trying to calm down on some of my goofiness.. you gone see the new me... :o)
ReplyDeletemmm hmmm

ReplyDeleteI got 50 million pics. If that's a stand in, she has been working over time. LOL
ReplyDeleteWorks for me! *adding JT to the invitation list*
ReplyDeleteI am not avoiding the topic. I commented before. I was stuck in the office from 6am to 10pm. Now do you REEEEEEEALLY want me to take the joke and run with it?
ReplyDeleteI was reading some statistic saying that 2nd and 3rd marriages have an even HIGHER divorce rate than first marriages.
ReplyDeletewith first marriages, the divorce rate hovers around 50%
with second and third marriages, about 80%
It must be true - I have two uncles who are BOTH on their 4th wives; I have another uncle about to tie the knot for the 3rd time....THEY LIKE getting married evidently.
But some of their choices ain't been that great...and one of the uncles STILL thinks he is Mr Playa Lover at 60+ yrs old and triple-bypass surgeries - PLEASE TELL HIM TO SIT HIS ASS DOWN - He won't listen to me.
But, do whatcha feel!
Oh noooooo! PLEASE leave it alone Rob! I lub you...*hoping that will guilt him into being nice*
ReplyDeleteI now have a few NUDE shots of me on MY page.
ReplyDeleteMan, ever since this post, I can't get Billy Idol's White Wedding outta my head...
ReplyDeletewe are ======================>HERE<==================
ReplyDelete...on the Billy Idol tip - dude was/is baaaaaad!!!!
So how do you skip over 1, 2, 3, 4 and go right to number 5 since thats where the gold is? lol
ReplyDeletepretend, lol
ReplyDeleteSay that!
ReplyDeleteYou want that fairy tale thang huh Red?
ReplyDeleteA little side note... read the note on the notepad at the top of Ms Mo's page... its a nice read...
ReplyDeleteHonestly I do... 32 years old and if truth was told, I am still petrified of having a kid naturally but more so I've always wanted to do it with a husband. I want that crazy ass proposal, I wanna argue with my mom and his over what looks good for my wedding, I wanna have this kick ass party for my family and leave for God knows how long to consumate this relationship and have fun then have A kid and do the family thing... It has always been a major issue for me... Guess I can say thats why I have no kids of my own yet. Me and my sister got into a pretty heated argument one day because she was saying something like I needed to give up waiting and just gone on and just have a kid or something like that... But, if you have standards then you stick to them.. at least thats what I think... But I see my single mom sisters doing it all the time... I guess I just had hopes and dreams of doing my way... I guess if I wait too long, my chance will be up....
ReplyDeleteSo, to answer your question YES I do want that fairy tale thang... We all should want something..
See Gigi...I read it last night! LMAO
