Yea tell me about it I have a panic attack thinking about weddings
Why?
I can't stand em...just not a fun time for me I guess...I used to be a server/bartender for a high class catering company.
Its just really annoying..All the guys are laid back but the chicks, especially the moms, get all bent out of shape and crazy...

I hear ya, but it's understandable. I used to manage hotels so I'm used to ritzy receptions and the high expectations of brides, etc. And I do understand that it's their day and they want everything to be perfect. I guess they're just meant for some people and not for others. Frankly, that's not the reason I got out of the business. That was one of the more enjoyable aspect, imo, even though it was insanely hectic most of the time.
I have a crazy story regarding a reception we had to prepare for. I don't have time to write it out right now, but I'll try to later.

I'm not crazy about weddings either. I've been to 12 of them over the past 4 years and well, each one makes me feel like the way Cubs fans must feel each year. I was the best man at my best friend's wedding and the odd thing is the girl had taken a shine to me at first but I wound up hooking her up with my friend. So, most times, you'll find me sitting in the corner, drinking the most expensive beers that will take a toll on the lucky couple's open bar tab, and praying the DJ would by happenstance, play some metal music instead of that popular music remix mish-mash rubbish.
I must admit my favorite time was when I was basically half-drunk and I was called up for an impromptu speech, which I happened to turn into a "10 Things I hate about England" rant (yes, this had taken place in England). That had to be my finest hour on English soil akin to the Battle of Britain.

I go for the beer; stay for the Mambo No. 5

Personally, I wait for the conga line and that'll give me good reason to touch that hot bridesmaid's bum (who happens to be engaged for a wedding next month).
