OfflineThe Guardian are running a thread about the worst examples of wedding entertainment featuring a tale with which I'm sure Shan will sympathise http://www.guardian.co.uk/comm…..ertainment - guests who felt physically sick after being terrorised by a deafening operatic rendition of an ABBA medley. Surely we can top this? I've been to two weddings now where the DJ, after being told well in advance, failed to produce the first dance, meaning I now have a conspicuous Dido track or two on my iTunes. I've also seen a man vomit all over his own wedding cake, but not everyone agreed that could be classed as entertainment.
I'm not sure this will count but a lot of the ones I've seen have been more odd entertainment. This stems from letting random family members do a turn. Perhaps this is a Northern thing.
The one that springs to mind is the wedding where everyone was pretending that the bride wasn't pregnant (staunch Catholic family, etc). This was made difficult by the fact that she was beautifully swollen and practically at waters-breaking stage.
To maintain the illusion they did a 50s style jive dance as their first dance, including her swinging round him and being dragged through his legs, etc. It was a curious form of entertainment and we probably shouldn't have cheered so much and called for an encore but I insist that we were just helping the illusion along.
Baby's fine by the way.
