    I was FLOORED by how much my best friend changed personality-wise on her wedding day. Had I known she was going to turn into such a monster I would have never agreed to be the maid of honor or even a bridesmaid for that matter. I showed up at the wedding wearing exactly what was requested of me and looking mighty nice I might add. Instead of complimenting my apprearence, she instead proceeded to point out everything that was wrong with my attire. She asked me to remove all my none-ear piercings, which sounds reasonable, but you have to understand that this is coming from a woman who has about 15 tattoos and her nipples pierced. Her husband was in a metal band and all his groomsmen had visible tattoos and facial piercings and they were not asked to take them out. I was pissed to say the least, especially since she knows me and has always been accepting my body jewelery before. She also requested that I cut off my hemp ankle bracelet (which could only be cut off). The bracelet was a gift from HER and I had worn it around my ankle for the past 3 years, the fact that she asked me to destroy a gift from her that I treasured on the day of her wedding just because it didn't exactly match my dress almost made me cry. Also at her reception she yelled at me for wearing a hoodie over my dress because it was FREEZING in the reception hall. I was so excited for her wedding, but to show up and be attacked for not being "perfect" just ruined the day for me. I couldn't believe after about 10 years of friendship that she would be so nasty towards me. Just goes to show that some people view the wedding as a way of "showing off" rather than a special union of love. Needless to say that experience did not help with my cynicism towards marriage.

    I'm not sure if I'd enjoy weddings of quite such severity, but I'm a photographer on the Caliifonia Central Coast and I love the creativeness of some familes. I've shot them in everwhere from military bases to
    ships cruising the bay. The most important thing I could tell any couple is relax... you're gonna have fun!
    Expect thing to go wrong. Every single wedding has it's mishaps, it's just part of the fond memories and future laughter for years to come :) John Crippen
