    My dad didn’t have a wedding when he got remarried, but he invited me to be there when the papers were signed. Then he did it without telling me 🤷‍♀️ so “no” I guess. One day he was just like “oh yeah we got married yesterday”…

    Yes. I was almost three years old. I don’t remember much, but I do remember that I started to sing during the wedding ceremony when my parents knelt at the altar. Of course no one else sung.

    I also remember that the priest scared the shit out of me and that my godfather “fell asleep” in the toilet and had to be carried to a car. I learned years later that he had severe social anxiety which he treated with liquor.

    I did the math as a teenager, and yep, I travelled down the aisle.

    My parents did one of those vow renewal weddings and I was at that. I was not at their original wedding. I wasn’t born yet.

    The only other wedding I attended was my own. And I kinda wish I hadn’t.

      Same, at least for the parents. I’ve been at a couple of friends’ weddings and they were pretty delightful.

    Yep. Tried to make it all about me too, what with the crying and shitting myself.

    Technically, unless adoption or donated eggs come to play, 50% of all of us attended the parents wedding, as an ovule inside our mothers ovary.

    Then again, some couples never marry. So, there’s another exception.

    To answer your question: 50% of me was there at the occasion.

    That’s a nice way to ask if I’m a bastard. No, not the insult. Literally, someone born out of wedlock.
