from 7500645With many future brides designing elegant, fancy weddings with all the trappings that thousands of wedding shops are willing to sell to them, there is a growing undercurrent of weirdness that is putting a new face on getting married.
Some ceremonies are merely strange, like these:
In Georgia, a young couple got married in a Waffle House parking lot after the groom finished his shift at the establishment. The bride’s father walked his daughter, in a wedding gown, across the asphalt. They said their vows under a tree next to the parking lot and went inside the Waffle House to cut the wedding waffle.

Hope you have enjoyed the first post on the wedding games. The reason why I wanted to post it as the first post because of its entertainment value.

Some teenagers as young as thirteen stay overnight in their boyfriend’s or girlfriend’s place once in a while.
Or sometimes more than thrice a week.
I know of a young lady who had been sleeping over in her boyfriend’s place ever since she was 13.
