Advice from Achewood

June 2, 2008 in Etiquette,Guests with 5 Comments

Recently, one of my favorite online comics has included wedding planning in one of its many story arcs, and I thought I’d share some of the nuptial nuttiness with you. Here is some schooling on how to have a wedding, the Achewood way:

“any cake is a wedding cake if you call it that”

“Oh how genius to have the invitation and the program all in one man I TOTALLY saved cash. I am the graphic designer of the AGE.”

“Men in neckties do not wish to be hugged. Men in turtlenecks expect hugs at each encounter, no matter how trivial. Men in fezzes are unpredictable, and may be at your wedding for reasons that are unclear to you.”

About Christa Terry: Christa Terry is a writer and wedding and lifestyle expert whose book iDo: Planning Your Wedding with Nothing But ‘Net is a one-stop planning resource for modern, free-thinking brides and grooms. With one husband, one toddler, and more on the way – kids, not husbands – Christa somehow manages to stay on top of the tricks and trends that make getting married and living life stylish and fun.

    I would totally want a subscription to Roast Beef Weddings.

    it’s good to know how to handle the situation when greeting a man in a fez.

    “Any cake is a wedding cake if you call it that” just became my new wedding motto.

    Achewood is awesome, and I feel like I just went through the five stages of wedding drama in that one strip. Where was Roast Beef Weddings when I got married?

    I’m sad, Twistie, that no men in fezzes showed up at my wedding…

    Darn. And Mr. Twistie looks so interesting in his. He would have worn it and been mysterious for you, had we but known of your lack of fez-wearing men. Woez!
