Wedding Crashers..


One of my new favorite guilty pleasures is the show "Wedding Crashers". This show cracks me up. Part of it has to do with the fact that I am a wedding photographer and the other part is just because its so off the wall funny. Real wedding crashers happen more than people think. If you get married at a big hotel, a random hotel guest will probably come down and help themselves to your cocktail hour snacks.
So being a wedding photographer you have to ask "Have I ever actually had wedding crashers at any of my weddings?"
The answer : Yes,

It's a really funny story that I've been dying for an excuse to blog. I won't say what wedding it was at but it's a story that's going to be in my someday book of crazy things that happen at weddings.

I was busy shooting the reception and this older lady came up to me and said "Excuse me... can you tell me, this party... what' is it for?" I stopped and looked at her and said "excuse me?" She said, "All the music and dancing, what's it all about?" I said, "well, It's a wedding reception". She turns, takes a swig from her glass of wine(from the open bar) and says "A Wedding- WOW!! We are having SUCH a good time".

Then she wandered off to the dance floor with her friend to join in. It was probably the funniest encounter with a wedding crasher. Now you have to ask.. Did I get a picture of the wedding crashers. Of course I did, and I am SURE the bride and groom were wondering "who the heck are these people." Here you go. Real live wedding crashers:

See the laughter.. and the smiles... and the wine. The bride was having a great time dancing with them, and no one seem to notice who they were. (Forgive the quality, the women in pink is in focus, but she turned before I got her face..)
