I have a wedding to officiate today (interesting that's what they call it). Last night was the rehearsal - which went well, by the way. I usually begin the rehearsal by sharing some "words of wisdom" (or the "ground rules"):
1. Something almost always goes wrong, so if you do something wrong - just smile, hold your head up, and continue on. Don't draw anymore attention to yourself than you already have. If you seem someone else do something wrong - smile, hold your head up, and be glad it wasn't you. Something will go wrong and it won't be the end of the world.
2. To help minimize problems: BE ON TIME!!! Show some respect for the couple getting married.
3. Don't come to the ceremony drunk, high, or otherwise inebriated. What you do afterwards is up to you, but I will ask you to leave if you show up that way. Again, it's about respect for the bride and groom, and also God.
Now, if I can just not make too many mistakes, show up on time, and try to stay sober until afterwards... it should go okay.
Peace, friends. Revolution(ate).
