You guys are blind. Obviously, it’s the traditional clear plastic lobster. You know, it symbolizes…um, many happy years of seafood, or something. Very popular these days.
Ron! You Bastard! You killed my parent’s couch, skinned it, and made it into a jacket!!!
I’m with aseymayo - it’s a plastic lobster, or some sort of mutant jumbo shrimp. It could also be a colostomy bag.
a honeymoon garment???
Looks like a half-unwrapped gift…
…or maybe she has a Nintendo ‘game-boy’ addiction that, before this picture, she’d managed to keep secret…
I agree with wring: it’s the goblet-on-the-table’s evil twin. She’s cradling it with a napkin.
I think it’s that 3rd vase the little cousins broke after they left for the honeymoon. Don’t you remember? I guess not, as only a few people were left cleaning up.
She’s licking a lobster! She’s licking a lobster!

Is it a trilobite?
Are you sure that’s not her underwear?
She had the Grail in her hands and she lost it .
*Back in the real world *
Looks like a vase to me .
From the way her hands are holding it, it appears to be rigid, but I’d say it looks like a frilly lace thong.
I asked about it being the top of the cake last night, and no, that’s not what it is. The caterers wrapped the top of the cake and put it in a box after the cake was cut.
It’s not a gift of any kind, since they didn’t open the gifts until after the honeymoon.
It’s not a framed menu, since a buffet was served.
I’m gonna press them harder about the possibility of it being a vase, maybe off one of the tables or something. That’s what I thought it was and that’s getting the most votes here, too.
Weird…I zoomed in real close on that picture…It looked like a white, smiling, stuffed cat…Almost cartoonish. Definetly sinister…I could make out eyes, a nose, and whiskers…I have to go hide under my desk now…
Oh and BratMan007, I must have that jacket! Or at least a reasonable faximile thereof…
I zoomed in on the object and to me it looks like the face of Jesus from the Shroud of Turin. A miracle!!
Hmmm…it looks like her fingers are grabbing something on top, like a drawstring. Could this be some sort of bag that held a ceremonial cake server or something similar?
Another WAG…a very small ice sculpture.
Oh, who the hell knows, but at this point I hope someone figures it out.
The caterers served the cake and there no ice sculptures, but the idea of it being a little bag is something I’ll run by them.

I agree with skugs. It looks like underwear. Not that I’d know what anyone in particular’s undies looked like, it just looks like undies. Or some other type of garment. Perhaps something for her hair?
To me it looks like there was an error in the developement of the film. The very top looks like a wine glass, and then there is a blob that seems to cut her fingers off. Have you checked the negatives? Of course, if you used a digital camara, you can flush my theory down the crapper.
