I went to a very nice wedding. The Ritz, Half Moon Bay, sunset, beautiful. Lots of asians though, well, better description, few nonasians. There were two nonasian tables with 300+ people in attendance. One was the white table the other the black, no kidding, I could make that up, but I am not.
The wedding ceremony was beautiful, I assume. One of the white guys was emceeing the reception. I tried to get him to make a comment about be careful when you are driving home, 280 asians leaving the same place at the same time. That, or say something like, wow, I cant believe how many of you are taking pictures. You know they paid professionals for that. He refused to make either of these comments.
I was alone at the wedding, wife couldnt make it. I was sitting next to a guy, so I had to make it clear to everyone else at the table that we werent there together.
The parents gave lovely speeches, in Asian so I have very little idea what they said. The speeches and dinner though took forever. They didnt cut the cake by the time I had to leave. The wedding started at 430, THEY WERE STILL TALKING AT 9. I had to leave to go meet some friends by 8, so that worked out well when I pulled up at 10.
So, I drove about 4 hours yesterday to go to a wedding, never got dessert, heard asian talk and didnt get to make fun of them for being asian.
Still a great time and the couple was so nice to let me come.
