One of my friends nephew’s got married this past weekend. She was showing off the pictures today during lunch (she just got back).

Her nephew converted to Judaism so he and his fiance (now wife) had a Jewish wedding.

They announced at the wedding that if they wanted the new couple to kiss, the entire table had to stand up and sing a song that had the word ‘LOVE’ in it.

My friend asked me, "Would it have been a bad idea to sing _Jesus Loves Me_?

I think, at a Jewish wedding, this would have been a very bad idea!

What say you?

Yep I think probably - funny though.

In fact I would have made it a game to chose the most inappropriate song with Love in the lyrics.

Love Hurts - Nazareth  
He thinks he’ll keep her - Mary Chapin Carpenter. (key line - When she was thirty-six she met him at their door. She said I’m sorry, I don’t love you anymore")  
Bonus points if the bride is 36

You forgot _Love Stinks_ by J Geils. But that was already done in a movie.

I can’t stop thinking of new songs for this game. God I hope I’m invited to a wedding where they try this.

I am amused to say that my fiancee and I have discussed this very song for our wedding. Not too seriously, because we think both of our mothers would have heart attacks, but the rest of our guests would probably be amused/horrified.

Assless chaps for the groom should do the trick.

The groom is not supposed to be horrified at his own wedding, I’m pretty sure.
