Wedding Mishaps
A few years ago, I was invited to my Indian neighbours wedding reception.

Now, Indian weddings don’t tend to be small, intimate affairs - and this wedding was no different - there must have been a good couple of hundred-plus guests there.

As is the norm, the main focal point of the reception was the meal and the happy couple had pulled out all the stops. When the time came for the top table’s food to be served, a HUGE roasted bird on a silver dish was proudly carried out from the kitchen, held up high by 4 waiters.

Everybody stood and applauded, while the happy couple beamed, in anticipation.

Suddenly, as the dish was being lowered, the bird slid off the plate and landed with a “plop” on the floor. The guests gasped, then room went quiet.

After a few seconds, the kitchen staff composed themselves, scooped the bird up from the floor and quickly ushered themselves back into the kitchen, where the dish was “tended to”.

A few minutes later, the bird made a second (and final) appearance in a much more subdued way.

What’s the worst / funniest wedding experience you have?

Length? About 10 minutes to clean all the fluff off it.
