Personal Narrative: A Humorous Wedding Day

“We were only eighteen when we wedded. She was the love of my life. I still remember our wedding day like it was just yesterday. She stood there at the end of the isle, looking gorgeous as always. Her gentle, ivory shoulders were exposed through the lace of her wedding dress and her luscious strawberry blonde hair fell in perfect ringlets around her pale, yet flawless face.”

The wedding day finally arrives and Toula’s side of the church is full while Ian’s side is not. The wedding is a traditional Greek wedding. Once married they get into the limo. At the reception Gus gives a speech about not being sure of Ian. He says he has now grown to like him. Maria and Gus present Ian and Toula a present. They have bought them a house. She cries and hugs her parents.

Didion’s continuous derogative tone towards the Las Vegas wedding scene places her above the newlyweds of the absurd weddings. She differentiates herself and the implausible and bizarre captivating wedding scene that’s unlike any other. She describes the Las Vegas wedding an illegitimate ‘expectations’ for brides and grooms. The use of quotations surrounding the word ‘expectation’ sarcastically details her anecdotes. She even goes as far as to describe the Las Vegas wedding as a children’s game. After noticing “actual wedding parties”, Didion judges the weddings on the basis of her expectations and builds skepticism of the wedding industry. She criticized a young pregnant bride that outspokenly said, ‘“It was just as nice as I hoped and dreamed it would be’”. Sadly society has diverted away from tradition and has been blindsided by business and industries that take advantage of insensible and oblivious citizens.

Maria comes home one day earlier than usual. Her family, two daughters of age five and eight and a stay-at-home husband, is surprised to see her so early and unexpectedly. The tired look on her face reveals the experience she had at work. She brings out a sluggish smile as her daughters rush up to greet her with their warm embraces, reminding her of the happiness they constantly provide but also saddened by their questionable future. Quietly, she sits down in front of her anxious spouse as he patiently awaits the news, sensing the tension in the air.

WILLIAM and Mary sat in the front row. The chairs were arranged in long, straight rows under a tent set up in the field next to the farmhouse. The farmhands and family stood as a fiddler played Here Comes the Bride. Annaliese’s father led Annaliese down an aisle between the rows of chairs. James and Reverend Flowers stood at the end of the aisle, waiting for the bride and her father to arrive. Annaliese was dressed in a long, white gown sewn by Mary and Annaliese’s mother in the weeks before the wedding. William looked up and smiled at Susan, Catherine, and two other bridesmaids standing off to the side. Mary sniffled and dotted her eyes with a handkerchief as Annaliese’s father gave his daughter a kiss on the cheek and shook James’s hand. A soft, late-afternoon breeze swept through the tent, offering slight relief from the blistering heat and oppressive

Sally's ex-boyfriend calls her and tells her he is getting married. Sally takes this pretty hard. She calls Harry and asks him to come over. While he is comforting her, they give in to the attraction they have had for one another and sleep together. Later they wonder about the wisdom in this decision. Sally tells Harry it was a mistake, and Harry agrees. Sally is then upset by this and gets mad.They drift apart for a while. They both miss one another.

Rose glanced aside to him and ducked her own hurriedly as Father Twain began, “Oh Eternal God, creator and preserver of all mankind, giver of all spiritual grace, the author of everlasting life, send thy blessing upon these thy servants, this man and this woman, whom we bless in thy name, so these persons may surely perform and keep the vows and covenants betwixt them made, whereof these rings given and received are a token and pledge, and may ever hereafter remain in perfect love and peace together, and live according to thy laws, through our Lord. Amen,” he said, “Ye may rise,” and Alyn grunted as he shoved the weight of himself and his armor back to his feet, drawing Rose up as

During the wedding everyone was excited to be there. Fayge´s dress was long and the cloth was thin. Shmuel wore a cap with a thick suit that fit him well. ¨You two look great!¨ everyone complimented them in a joyful voice. Just as we were arriving, we saw unfamiliar cars in the distance. “Maybe they are just more people to join the wedding.” Esther implied.

This essay starts out with a happy tone “they looked unmistakably married”(line 1-2). It then goes on to use vivid imagery to further describe the scene for example, “ the man had a round, self-satisfied face, with glasses on it with glasses on it; the women was fadingly pretty, in a big hat”(line 3-4). From the first look at them they looked like any other married couple, happy, this was the first impression. The tone then gets even more exciting when the writer realized that is was the husband's birthday. “ The head waiter brought it in and placed it before the husband,

Although it seemed as though the bride and groom were relaxed during the majority of the piece, the additional three females movement was scurried and frantic at times. Specifically, two of the women extended their arms towards the ceiling, dropped their arms exasperated, then made a sharp head movement behind their shoulder before beginning a series of idiosyncratic movements, traveling to all ends of the stage. In addition to this freneticism, the third female performer maintained a professionalism to her expression and movement. When she joined the frenzied duet, she brought a calmness to the now trio, with fluid arabesque turns and an extended migration to one part of the floor to

They have four hours until the wedding and they invited everybody from town except Jax. They are all rushing to set up the ball room with pretty decorations and food that Mr.Beast cooked. Three hours had passed already and Beauty is in the basement sorting out books that are very dusty. Abby calls Beauty upstairs to get ready. Beauty comes up and she is dusty meanwhile Abby is dressed is a very pretty purple dress.

Their parents both worked together, and were meeting up for a catch up. “I was very young when I got married, only 21.” She said the time when she met Roy was the most important part of her life. “My life would be so different if I didn’t meet him.”

The excitement buzzed through the air as everyone rushed around. There stood Amelia Sonneveld, standing in her white, lace wedding dress in the center of the room, taking it all the chaos; their wedding planner shouting last minute touches, her mother wiping her tears away, her bridesmaids all gathered around the makeup table. Today was the day. She was about to marry the love of her life, Hunter Marsh.

Every little girl dreams about her wedding day, from the food to her dress. The little girl dreams of what she assumes what will be the happiest day of her life. But for some girls, this day is more of a trade for new beginnings. Such as the 1900’s Chinese picture brides, as told in the story Come, Japanese!. These young women would promise themselves to “extremely” eligible bachelors from places like the United States of America (USA). Their hopes were to start a new life in a new country where they would no longer be oppressed and live happy lives with their “tall and handsome” American husbands. The women came over on a boat and lived on it for several months while waiting to arrive in America. The narrator describes that the women are mostly
