Went to a wedding Saturday night at the Stamford Grand, expected a good night. It was on the in-laws side, a cousin of my wife's. Ended up being an absolute classic thanks to my parent's in law!
After a few pints down in the 2 bars downstairs we head up for dinner. The oldies were on a table next to us and it was obvious that they were having a very good time with the beverages flowing.
Classic moment #1:
Soon after mains are finished a bridesmaid comes up to my wife and whispers in her ear. She's up and out onto the balcony in a flash, where it seems Mother-in-law has lost her gourmet dinner already. The usual rubbing of back and fetching of water ensues, and things are sorted out without too much fuss but there were a fair few chuckles to be had.
Classic moment #2:
About an hour later Father-in-law does the phantom for about half an hour. He'd been smashing the champagne, even pinching the bottle from our table, and being from the country there was a bit of a concern that he might be wondering the streets of Glenelg. Search parties are sent out and he is located in a cubicle that had been occupied for quite sometime passed out on the throne. Amongst much laughter from other toilet goers and after about 10 minutes of coaxing we manage to get him out, looking very worse for wear.
Sent both stumbling their way back to the hotel room before the bride and groom even left, they made it thankfully!
An absolute classic night and one that I'm going to get some serious mileage out of for quite sometime! My wife was so embarrassed!
