Speaker for the Dead! You’ll have to be a thirteen year old male priest. (Yes i found that out from the VVC thread. I talk all about you there.)

Maybe i’ll have to seduce the priest next? ::purrs silkily::

Actually, Uncle Beer is going to be the priest. We’re still looking for groomsmen (you’ll have to see Ron about that), a flower girl, some bridesmaids, an organist, a florist, a caterer, …

Speaker, consider yourself the photographer.

Good gravy…an actual excuse to look for a man to take off his clothes for me. Ahem, I mean ‘us.’

So…guys? Anybody want the honor? You’ll have a very attentive audience, I can promise you. I’m sure–since this is virtual–that I’ll pay you well.

Anybody?

Well, when you say you’re a _minor_, that pretty much sends off the warning sirens. So is your definition of minor someone under 18 or someone who isn’t old enough to legally drink?

… so please can I come? Please, pretty pretty please.  
As your virtual guest I promise to:

1. Cry on command
2. Tearfully exclaim how lovely the bride is
3. Not out shine the bride
4. Catch the bouquet
5. Dance with several men at the reception who I’ve never  
met in my life
6. Kiss several men I’ve never met in my life at the  
reception.
7. Get suitable drunk and be involved in an amusing  
incident which will be brought up at every reunion.

I shall be wearing a lovely backless red dress, slit to my thigh and red stilletos and a matching jacket for the actual ceremony. I’ll bring a lovely wedding present, a coffee machine, or no wait, an ice cream machine. Nah, even better, I’ll pay for a week in Italy where you can have both.(Good job this isn’t IRL). I’ll help the bride get ready and lend her a beautiful diamond necklace so she has something borrowed to wear and provide her with the hangover cure she needs from her hen night.  
So pleeeeeaasseee. Can I come?

When did UncleBeer agree to be a preacher?

Don’t you know that our very own **Eutychus55** actually is [an ordained minister](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=35763)?

So **Jester** where and when is this bachelor party and who’s showing up besides you and me?

Yesterday I put up an announcement thread telling all of those MPSIMS broads that you were off the market & basically begging for bridesmaids. [Crunchy Frog is Getting Married…](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=41613) It’s now locked. Uncle Beer begged to be the preacher.

PS. I’m also a registered minister in the Universal Life Church.

nadin - If you want, you can be _in_ the wedding. I have unlimited space for bridesmaids. If you’d just like to be a guest that’s fine. I’ll aim for you with the bouquet.

Well, I’m just about to start the bachelor party thread, just give me a few minutes. As to who’s showing up? Well, that’s a very good question. Guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

Ok, if UncleBeer wants to perform the ceremony, that’s cool with me. And I say let him write the virtual vows. From the looks of his post over there he’s already planning something malicious for it.

Crunchy, don’t make me go back to your bachelor party & ruin it.  
I would prefer if you didn’t sound so heartbroken that I won. 😉

No no, that’s not what I meant at all. The sad face is because I feel sad for **A Girl** because um . . . she seemed sad about . . . um, not being a bride and I’m um, I’m . . . Oh, I know! I’m such a sensitive soul that I felt bad too. That smiley face she posted is just to hide the pain. Really.

I’m going to back slowly out of the room now.

I think y’all need a belly dancer for the entertainment at the wedding! (It’s a tradition in the middle east - fertility rights, eh 😉 )

And I’ll forget to safety pin the back of my bra, so the hook will go out at a critical point in the performance and I’ll finish the show holding my arms over my chest!

Zyada, perhaps you could be of assistance in Crunchy’s stag party. I hear they’re having trouble finding strippers. If you forget the pin, perhaps they’d be just as happy with a belly dancer…
