I’m with you, NtB. A bit of well-placed humor in an appropriate vein only makes the event more eventful. Also, there is nothing that makes an awkward moment pass more quickly and easily than knowing the principle participants are willing to see the humor in it.

In fact, one of the most delightfully memorable moments from any wedding I ever attended was one where the boom box providing the ceremony music decided to die just as the bridal party turned to do the recessional. After about two seconds of silence, the bride burst out laughing. In the end, the whole bridal party processed to the sound of joyful laughter. What better music could there possibly be?

This little sketch is made of awesome. It’s honestly funny, it doesn’t go on too long, and it clearly has meaning for the bridal couple. I highly approve.
