Why be normal when you can be Verastic?? And that’s a serious question by the way.
I told you about the wonderful Verastic ideas I have for my bridesmaids, and Lolo Bloggs couldn’t help but ask what plans I have for myself as the bride, so Lolo Bloggs, this post is especially for you. Yes, I realize other people asked too, but Lolo Bloggs asked first. Listed below are a few ideas for my wedding; they will be implemented from the time of my engagement to the wedding. Some might call these plans drastic, but I prefer to call them Verastic.
1. My fiance will propose to me every month after the initial proposal – just to reinforce that he wants to marry me. And no, he does not need to buy a new ring for each proposal – unless he wants to, of course.
2. My friends must throw me a surprise bridal shower every month. This is because I don’t think one bridal shower will be enough for everyone and all the gifts I intend to receive.
3. My husband and I will renew our vows every year, and we will have a big reception. This will be to remind ourselves (and others) that we are married. Of course, each renewal will preceed a huge compulsory asoebi party and a bomb-diggitified honeymoon where we will procreate till — whenever.
4. For my first wedding, I cannot have it in only one location because not everyone will be able to make it there. I’ll have it in Yankee, in London, in Naija, and in Iraq (for our soldiers at war; I wouldn’t want them to miss this golden opportunity).
5. My husband and I will go on three honeymoons. A pre-wedding honeymoon, a wedding honeymoon, and a post wedding honeymoon.
6. In other to include everyone in our wedding, my husband and I will have almost all types of weddings. I said almost. We will have a court wedding, a Christian (white) wedding, a traditional wedding, an Islamic wedding, a Jewish wedding, a Hindu wedding, Sikh wedding (is there any such thing?), a Budahist wedding, and any other kind we can think of.
7. Between the wedding (in church) and the reception, my husband and I will be secluded in a locked room for some private talking time. We may not do much talking, but we sure will have some private time. Hmmmm…. wonder what we will be doing. Ideas, anyone???
8. Considering all the money we’ll be spending on our wedding, it is only fair that we try to cut the costs a bit. We’ll tell our guests to bring their own food and water, and we’ll provide the cups & utensils – all disposable, of course.
9. If we do provide the water, we will not provide cups, and it will not be one bottle per guest. Instead, everyone must take a gulp from the bottle and pass the rest to his/her neighbor. There is joy in sharing, you know.
10. But just in case over-richness begins to worry my husband and I (AMEN!!!), we will provide each table @ the reception with one cow. Yes, I said each table will have a cow. Each table will have 8 guests, and they must finish that cow b4 they go home. No take away! Oh, of course, it will be cooked.
11. The beef will be served with a bag of rice. Yes, each table must eat one bag of rice. After which they will drink it down with a carton of beer. Each guest = a carton of beer. Failure to comply with the rules will result in panel beating by a panel beater.
That’s it for now. As you can see, I don’t ask for too much. I only ask that my wedding – like yours truly – be Verastic.
P.S. Does any1 have info about making graphic tees? I mean those tees with inscriptions on them. I need a lot of it, so that means wholesale price, please. The earlier you help me out, the earlier we will have this Verastic wedding. No, I’m not engaged, but like I always say…a gal can plan ahead, can’t she?
**Vera thinking** Hmmm….what if all the guests wear a tee-shirt that says, “Some idiot invited me to her wedding and said I must share a cow with 7 other people…” Hehehehe. But on second thoughts, I don’t know how I feel about 7, 500 people calling me an idiot on my wedding day.
Oh, did I forget to mention that I will be having 7, 500 guests?? Not a lot, is it?
