"That's Life"...Really Surprises are Fun

Many times you meet grooms who simply "show up" at their wedding. Other times, you meet grooms who really want to be a huge part of their wedding although most of the grooms fall into the happy area between the two extremes.


Every once and a while you meet a man who loves his fiance'/new wife so much that he wants to impress everyone at their reception. Whether it comes from the idea of "one-upping" a sibling or in-law or simply wanting display his love, men do some interesting and innovating activities (and yes, someone already pulled the grandma panties and rubber chicken out with the garter).


Last Saturday really rated in a top-notch display of vocal talent that almost made this MC stop for a kleenex moment. Not only did Dennis attend a Bridal Academy session last year with Angie (his fiance'), he also (at the reception) belted out an awesome version of "That's Life" that would have made Frank perk up his ears. I am really glad that the video guy got the three and a half minutes on video because that will be something their kids and grandkids will want to hear/see. "You did what at your wedding??"


So brides, if your man wants to surprise you with a special activity, simply ask him to plan well and practice, practice, practice. Also make sure he consults with the band or DJ/MC so the timing and sound become a flawless expression of his love and devotion.


Dennis, you did an awesome job!! Keep singing! Angie, you got yourself a great guy!!

Congratulations to the newlyweds!
