Awkward things always seem to happen to me. I'm not sure why I have stamp on my head that says "if you plan to do/ask something uncomfortable and out of the ordinary, please involve me".
Anyways, I had a meeting tonight with my wedding couple for next weekend. Today we finally got together to plan their wedding (in a week, mind you), so I knew it would take a while. It's kind of an odd couple to begin with, he's probably in his late 40's early 50's and she's a young Romanian girl (probably 20's or 30's). One of my co-workers threw around the "mail order bride" word, but I dont' know, I never asked the story of how they met.
Anyways, after 2 1/2 hours of sitting with them we got up to walk around the room and see how they wanted it set up. Half way through us figuring it out, they must have said something cute/funny to each other and they then started kissing. I saw her go in and thought it would be just a quick kiss, no harm done, but nope, there was a good minute or so of lip smacking going on! So awkward, I seriously didn't know what to do, I obviously looked away, and then in true awkward Jenni fashion, decided to just keep talking about where we should put the guest book and gift tables like everything was normal. Finally they stopped, smiled at each other lovingly, until I broke the moment and said "what do you think?", hoping that would stop it and it did. But holy cow, awkward. Who does that? I'm not a huge fan of PDA's as it is, but that was a little over the top. Now all this encounter needed was a man coming up to me and asking me if I knew Buddy Big Bear (haha a few of you will understand this), and the whole akward journey of my life would have been complete.
Word to the wise-when planning a wedding, don't put your wedding planner in an awkward situation, save the loving for home! :)
