Cracker Jacks or With Friends Like This . . .


You can always count on the guys in a wedding to bring something fun to the table but I recently had a best man who came up with one that even I had never seen. At Emily and Cory Truman's wedding in Gates county a couple of weeks ago, the minister asked for the rings during that time in the ceremony. Very slowly and very deliberately, the best man pulled a box of Cracker Jacks out of his pocket and began fishing around inside for something. Of course, he produced the ring but not before everyone in the church, including both ministers and a surprised groom, had a jaw-dropping good laugh. No one will forget that moment in the service or the toast he gave later on at the reception. Only a really good friend could get away with all that.

That is really funny! I love how serious he is while everyone else is dying laughing. You are so right, only true friends can get away with stuff like that.
