The wedding was bugged
The bridesmaids had all lined up, and the bride completed her walk down the aisle. We finished playing the processional, and I looked over to admire the bridesmaids' gowns.

It was then that I noticed, at the hem of the last bridesmaid's strapless crimson dress, a four-inch long praying mantis making her way toward the unsuspecting girl's back.

I pointed the bug out to my colleagues, and we pondered for a moment whether she might jump off and avoid making a scene. However, the mantis was quite happy exploring her new satin territory, so the violist (who is braver than I), walked over as quietly and inconspicuously as she could and removed the green huntress from the girl's gown before she freaked.

The mantis is now happily munching beetles in the zinnia bed.


Post your amusing wedding anecdotes here. :)

2. Our Band was playing a Gig at some sleazy Bar.
Everything was going fairly well when I heard (from down the stage),
the sound of a Guitar going: #$%TFGR!!!!WOOOOOO..WANG,,WANG!!!....
FRAP!!!!!! GLANG!!!!!

I looked over thinking, "What the Hell" and saw the Guitar player with a HUGE Cockroach running around his shirt!

It was funny as hell! LOL!

3. ewwwwwww...
A cellist friend of mine was playing for an outdoor wedding, and a wasp managed to get inside the front of her blouse. The blouse had a high neck, so the only way she could get rid of the wasp, short of being arrested for indecency, was to go to the ladies room while the thing was still stinging her. Ugh!

4. Still stinging her?....Ouch!....I guess sometimes there is an....
..advantage to being a male.
Although in her case, I'm sure people would have understood.
