Ole & Lena's Wedding
You are cordially invited to the marriage ceremony of
Lena Arlene Handspringinnen - daughter of Toivo & Gladys Handspringinnen
to
Ole Olaffson, Jr - son of Ole, Sr and Lois Olaffson
At the center of the action is Ole Olafsson Jr., the overly nervous and easily bossed groom, and Lena Handspringinnen, the overly worried and perfection-seeking bride.
A well-meaning but befuddled Lutheran pastor presides over the ceremony in which Lena shares her emotional vows - vows that, of course, make the stolid Ole a tad uncomfortable. Meanwhile, accordion-playing Pantsloff is not quite willing to let go of the torch he bears for Lena. Throughout it all, the audience becomes wedding guests enjoying a photo montage of the bride and groom growing up and receiving a nametag identifying them as a friend or family member of the bride or groom.
You might want to change into your good clothes. Whatever.
--- A Scandinavian Blessing ---
May the road rise up to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
The trout be biting in your stream
The snow be lower than your tires
Until we meet again
And may you have a not-too-bad of a time.
