To Honor and Respect...

We went to a wedding this past weekend. The ceremony was truly wonderful and lovely. The reception? Not so much.

It is not a good idea for the best man, during his toast, to talk about how the groom dated many, many women during college and how once, right after a break-up, told his friend that he could not be alone, but he needed to have a woman to be with.

And it is not a great idea for the maid of honor (who was also the bride's sister) to explain how the bride brought many, many men home, until one finally stayed.


It would be nice to go back in time and give the reception a big dose of tact.
