Some time ago I wrote about the wedding party who came up the aisle pulling a little red wagon holding their infant son. More recently I read of a couple wanting to include in the wedding party their chihuahua dressed in a tuxedo. The priest nixed the idea. We are also dealing with a spate of "destination" weddings where guests are invited to make their way down to the Caribbean or Central America. A few years ago a friend was invited to a wedding in Monaco. The host chartered an aircraft to bring fifty guests for the weekend. Unfortunately, the marriage didn't last - but there were no refunds from the airline. When my parents were married in 1925 their reception was at home so the wedding party walked the five city blocks from the church to the reception. Some destinations are closer than others.
