Co-worker in south Texas. I was the only one in a suit. Literally dressed nicer than the pastor. Some had nice dress jeans on while half had cargo shorts. It was at some park with a pavilion thing with a River running in the back.

Halfway through the reception people were walking down and fishing in the river as they had rod and reels available.

Everyone else just stood around a keg with only styrofoam cups available. I drank more foam than beer that day.

Couple divorced a year later.

Bride in Texarkana changed her mind at the last minute and ran out of the church. Ended up getting picked up by some bootlegger in a trans am and ran off to Georgia.

Usually if you sit through a catholic mass you get ab open bar, usually if there a cash bar it was after a short and sweet ceremony. This was truley the worst of both...and again...in the fricking AM. So we woke up for this mass, shite lunch, no booze and then there we were in rural Arkansas at noon.

A good friend of mine that lived in Jackson, MS got married at a train station. I'm such a good friend.

Went to a cousin's wedding years back. She married a cool guy that happened to be from Chalmette, with a large family.
I have another group of cousins that lived on the West bank in Bridge City. As the reception was ending, the Chalmations and Bridge City elite started arguing over something. Someone was accused of wearing a "country-bumpkin-arse suit". Out of nowhere a chair flew into the midst of the Chalmations, and fists began to fly.
My dad and I stood off to the side, drinking whiskey and watching the festivities.

I’ve been to one where Busch Light was the preferred beer. I asked for a crown and 7 and I got Old Crow and sprite.

Did the JoP actually marry you or only sign a marriage license? Because if you had a marriage ceremony in another state based on a Louisiana marriage license, you might well not be legally married.


There is no ceremony required. Only signing/witnessing/yes/stamp.

Not one we attended but a friend of ours has a bakery and once delivered the bride and groom cakes to a reception being held in the loft of a working mule barn; from what was told later it wasn't converted and barely swept out. She said it was a race to get to the cake before the flies took off with it.

Was IN a wedding for a friend of a friend.

Only knew the guy for about a year and only got to know him because he lived in the apartment next to my friend. My buddy said the guy didn’t have any friends and the only other 2 groomsmen were his brother and the fiancée’s brother and said if he asks you to be in it please say yes.

Wedding was in a small Methodist church. Fiancee’s family were straight out the trailer park- including a middle aged guy in blue jean overalls. She had 3 friends there- all dressed like dollar store strippers. The poor guy marrying her- his dad had died- only his mom, sister and an uncle showed up, aside from his brother who was a groomsman.

Music at the wedding was on a cassette from a boombox. This was around 2005. You could hear the click when they hit stop on the boombox in this church.

Reception was at the ‘Community Center’ next to the church. It was not BYOB. No alcohol allowed whatsoever. And the guy getting married (and all of the rest of us) were drinkers. We had to go to the parking lot a few times to have a few drinks to get through this awfulness.

The ‘music’ at the reception was 100% country, on cassette, out of the same boombox.

I don’t remember all the food, but there was jambalaya (Zatarains), homemade finger sandwiches, meatballs in a crock pot, a few dozen donuts still in the Krispy Kreme boxes, and a sheet cake from Walmart with their names on it.

I haven’t seen this couple since about 2010, but my buddy stays in contact with the guy and they are still married. God bless.

Went to one where the caterer was Walmart, it was Spam sandwiches, I shite you not. No dj, the bride controlled the playlist. She played depressing shite, like He Stopped Loving Her Today. The reception was in a field with a small bonfire. And no alcohol.

The trashy ones are just as married as the high roller, flashy, look at us ones, and I wouldn't be surprised if more of those marriages actually last.

Married at a Train Station

Did they depart for the honeymoon on the City of New Orleans?

Would have made it pretty classy, unless the train hit a pulpwood truck at that blind crossing in Crystal Springs.
