Wedding Guests

Ok with June gone by and the thought of all those weddings made me remember what else ticks me off.
Fair weather wedding guests. You know the kind, don't show up for the ceremony and only go to the reception for the meal and then leave. You people suck. You shouldn't have even been invited in the first place.
The bride takes a very long time to plan her wedding (in some cases), and makes sure everything is perfect for her day. This includes making sure she has the people that love her at the most important day of her life.
If she thinks about you enough to pay 50 bucks (if not more) for you to have a great meal and celebrate her day with her, the least you can do is have enough class and dignity to go to the ceremony and see her get married. You owe that to her.
Then there are the guest we call "chew and screw". I know it sounds bad, but these are the people that just come to reception, eat and drink and then leave as soon as the meal is over.
Again, the happy couple just paid for you to stuff your face, stay at least for the first couple of dances. Make and effort to look like you're having a good time. You know what it's like for a bride who's just finnishing her meal and 12 cousins come up to her at the head table and say "Bye, we're leaving now", it's rude and it sucks, don't do it. Jeez even "wedding crashers" stay longer than that! Weddings are happy occasions, maybe these people are just so miserable that they don't want one iota of happiness in their life, so they leave.
SO next time you're at a wedding, just remember all the hard work that went into that special event and don't be "one of those" wedding guests.
