Clucks and Smooches

July 1st, 2008 @ 2:10 pm by Mrs. Tulip

Inspired by Miss Pomegranate’s nifty kissing menu idea, I thought I’d share what we required of guests who wanted to see us kiss. We refused to give them a show…unless they did …

THE CHICKEN DANCE!

(Mr T and a groomsman flap their wings at the after-party)

Since our dead music meant no actual (much-anticipated!) Chicken Dance, I’m glad we still got to include this tradition in some way. It definitely kept smooching demands to a minimum– only the aforementioned groomsman was man enough to play chicken for the assembled crowd.

Anyone else going with a decidedly unusual method of kissing request?

Hilarious! What a great picture. I wanted to think of an unusual kissing request protocol, but it was totally one of those things that I dropped at the last minute, when I ran out of time and creativity!

We demanded haiku. Hilarity ensued.

It dissolved into trash-talking between table 4 (our work friends), table 9 (his cousins, the pre-designated “party table”), and table 1 (the parents). I only remember the last line of most of them: “next time it’s their wine” was one, and “we have the rum punch” was another. Then table 1 busted out with

having the rum punch
does not a champion make:
parents dominate

Smackdown!

My Mom suggested to my fiance and I that we put all the couples names on a aslip of paper, and when someone clinks and wants us to kiss, we draw a couple out of the bowl and they also stand up and kiss.

We did paper rock scissors - they could take on either of us, best 2 out of 3, if they won we kissed and if we won they had to kiss somebody else. It led to some of my favourite photos, like this one and this one.
