Are You Thinking of Getting Married?

Memories in 20-word stories

A friend of mine plans to marry in a few months, for the first time, at the ripe old age of 62. She’s planning a large wedding with all the trappings, including a traditional white gown.

As we discussed her plans and my participation in her big day, we couldn’t help but reminisce about my own wedding 27 years ago. Outside of our nuptials, some interesting stuff happened before, during, and after that affair, and I decided it might make interesting fodder for a story.

With that, below are a few 20-word stories surrounding engagement, weddings and marriage. There’s a bit of my own experience in each of them.

He had the perfect face, a perfect personality and liked dogs. Nobody’s perfect. She wondered if she should have him followed?

When he wasn’t paying attention, she peaked in his closet. She found a few monsters there, but loved him anyway.

At first, his family didn’t like her. But, his dogs loved her, so he happily asked her to marry him.

The priest asked for the rings. Horrified, she watched the best man remove them from a box of Cracker Jacks.

One of the reception guests didn’t wear any underwear. She repeatedly high kicked while dancing. The photographer got nice crotch-shots.

The hammered maid of honor gave a toast at the reception. She promised to kill the groom for any indiscretions.

They went on a cruise for their honeymoon. Half way through the trip, the ship’s propeller broke. They didn’t care.

These little stories are more difficult to put together than you might think. I believe I took liberties with one of them. Does crotch-shots count as one word or two?

I encourage anyone reading this to try it! It’s a lot of fun. In the meantime, check out Mike Knittel’s offering below. He’s a truly funny guy and started this whole mess for me.
