Absolute agreement on Arsenal, there!
Yes, Tater, weddings shouldn't be about tension and whatever breaks it up becomes part of the wedding memories.
My big brother married because his girlfriend was about eight and three quarters months pregnant, and not for any other reason, so I guess you could say it was a wedding fraught with tension. It was a small family ceremony, and our kids were probably five and seven years old. My son (also known as the bottomless pit) had never seen a large sheet wedding cake before, and his eyes nearly came out of his head to see such a magical sight. All the time the ceremony was going on, I could see that he saw nothing but that cake, and I had to keep a hand on his shoulder to keep him from sidling away from me and toward the cake.
The ceremony ended, the groom kissed the bride, and in that little quiet time before anybody says anything, my son piped up, "So can we eat the cake now?"
