if you're "shocked" by camo tuxedo vests and music being played on a CD player that skips while the bride is walking down the aisle

then you sir, are one of those annoying elitist snobs

but shocked? come on

Didn't shock me because I knew these people and I'm not exactly from the most urban area either, but I could totally see Jones being legitimately SHOCKED by those weddings I've been to.

His family thinks I come from the woods, I think. They have asked me questions about deer meat and stuff. I don't even eat deer, but I thought it was odd they never had it before. I thought they were going to fall out when we brought smoked boudin to Thanksgiving because they had never had such a thing.

There are definitely people sheltered enough in their "city" life to be shocked at that stuff

For real. It can get a whole lot worse than a country wedding. Go to a Franklin County party and your mind will explode.

This would probably shock me at this point in my life. But that's just because I don't know any people who would do some shite like this. I assume that when this type of thing happens, you go in with lowered expectations.
