you are going to draw me my bath so I can relax. And when I'm finished with my bath, guess who's

Wedding Hymn Sheet

The Minister noticed the bride was in distress so asked what was
wrong. She replied that she was awfully nervous and afraid she would not
remember what to do. The Minister told her that she only needed to
remember 3 things.

• First the aisle, cos that is what you'll be
  walking down.
• Secondly, the alter because that is where you will
  arrive.
• Finally, remember hymn because that is a type of song we
  will sing during the service.

While the bride was walking in step
with the wedding march, family and friends of the maid-of-honor were horrified
to hear her repeating these 3 words...

... Aisle, alter hymn (I'll alter
him)

Brian had asked Dave to help him out with cutting his rather large garden
hedge after work, so Dave went straight over to Brian's home. When they got
to the front door, Brian went straight up to his wife, gave her a big hug
and told her how beautiful she was and how much he had missed her at work.
When it was time for supper, he complimented his wife on her excellent
cooking, kissed her and told her how much he loved her.

Once they were cutting the privet, Dave told Brian that he was surprised
that he fussed so much over his wife. Brian said that he' d started this
about six months ago, it had revived their marriage, and things couldn't be
better. Dave thought he'd give it a go.

When he got home, he gave his wife a massive hug, kissed her and told her
that he loved her. His wife burst into tears. Dave was confused and asked
why she was crying. She said, 'This is the worst day of my life. First,
little Nigel fell off his bike and twisted his ankle. Then, the washing
machine broke and flooded the basement. And now, you come home drunk!'

The Seven Ages of the
Married Cold

1st year - The husband says, 'Oh, darling, I'm really
worried about those nasty sniffles you have! There's no telling what that
could turn into with all the strep that's been going around. I'm going to
take you right down to the private hospital and have you admitted for a
couple days of rest. I know the food is good there, and I've already spoken
to the Matron and the Hospital chef and I've paid the bill.

2nd year -
'Listen, sweetie, I don't like the sound of that cough.  I've 'phoned the
doctor and he's going to stop by here and take a look at you. Why don't you
just go to bed and get the rest you need? I'll bring you something to eat
when you're hungry.'

3rd year - 'Maybe you better go lie down, darling.
When you feel lousy you need the rest. I'll bring you something ; do we have
any canned soup around here anywhere?'

4th year - 'No sense wearing
yourself out when you're under the weather. When you finish those dishes and
the kids' baths and get them to bed, you ought to go straight to bed
yourself.'

5th year - 'Why don't you take a couple aspirin?'

6th year - 'You ought to gargle or something, instead of sitting
around barking like a dog.'

7th year - 'For Pete's sake, stop sneezing. Are you trying
to give me pneumonia?  You'd better pick up some tissues while you're at the
supermarket.'

A Clever, Funny, Shaggy Doggy Wedding Story

Once upon a time, Clara and Jenny were talking when Clara asks Jenny how
many times she's been married, and the reply was 4.

'Four times!' exclaims Clara, 'why so many?'

So Jenny replies, 'Well, I first got married when I was very young, and I
married this wonderful man who was a banker.  However, one day just a
few weeks after we were married, his bank was robbed and he was shot and
killed.'

'Oh my word, that's terrible,' Clara said.

'Well, it wasn't that tragic. Soon after that, I started seeing another
man who performed in the circus.  He was really a great guy, but he
lived pretty dangerously because he performed his high-wire act without a
net. Well, a few weeks after we got married, he was performing a show and
suddenly a gust of wind came by and knocked him off his wire and he was
killed.'

'Your second husband was killed too? That's horrible.'

'Yes, it was terrible, but at the funeral I fell in love with the
minister and we got married soon after that.  Unfortunately, one Sunday
while he was walking to church, he was hit by a car and killed.'

'Three? Three husbands of yours were killed?  How could you live
through all that?'

'It was pretty tough, but then I met my present husband. And he's a
wonderful man. I think we'll live a long happy life together.'

'And what does your present husband do for a living?' Clara enquires.

'He's a mortician,' responds Jenny.

'A mortician? I don't understand something here.  First you marry a
banker, then a circus performer, then a minister, and now a mortician?
Can you explain such a diverse grouping of husbands?'

'Well, if you think about it it's not too hard to
understand..........Well it's

One for the money...
Two for the show...
Three to get ready...
And four to go ........

A Brief Guide to the Etiquette of Wedding Day Speeches

The order of wedding speeches is traditionally as follows:

The father of the bride
usually talks fondly about his daughter.  As with most speeches, it is
accepted that a mixture of affectionate anecdote and humour generally works
well.  He then toasts the bride and groom.

The groom speaks next and replies on behalf of himself
and his wife [in these modern times it should be remembered that more and
more brides are making their own speeches*]. He aims to thank those people
involved in helping them both in the planning of the wedding and distributes
gifts to those who are to receive more than a verbal "thank you." The groom
then may talk about his new wife before proposing a toast to the bridesmaids

The best man's oration now follows.  He thanks the bride
and bridegroom on behalf of the bridesmaids and himself for asking them to
be part of their special day and for the gifts they have received and then
he reads out telegrams, cards, e-mails or other messages from friends and
relatives who couldn't be at the wedding. He will then go on to talk about
the groom in what can be the highlight, or in some cases lowlight, of the
wedding speeches.  Humour and anecdote abound.  Finally the best man
should then propose a toast to the parents of the bride and bridegroom.

The maid of honor's speech may follow the best man's.
