The couple getting married each has an uninflated toy
balloon. When it is time to declare vows (or at least "I Do
s"),
one partner blows up the balloon, passes it to the other.
He/she inhales the breath of air in the balloon, then
announces his/her committment vow using his/her
partner's
breath. (Edit: This action is then reversed for
the other partner, of course.)
(Maybe more than marginally silly, but my wife suggested
we
do this at our wedding, which sealed the deal with her
for
me. If she hadn't then suggested we first fill the balloons
with
helium, I think we might have actually done it. )

How poetically romanticle!! (: |
|
|
Weddings should do more to reflect the
delightful silliness that they already are. Bun! |
|
|
Very neatly solves that pesky hyperventilating-at-the-altar problem, doesn't it? Bun! [+] |
|
|
[marked-for-d3letion] let's all! Bun! Or wait ... no, no bun. |
|
|
I think the helium idea is the best one I've heard in years. Weddings are tedious things. |
|
|
I don't think this calls for a 'let's all.' |
|
|
If we "let's all" decide, does that mark us all for
deletion, I wonder? |

//let's all ... - the author wants something some
people are already doing to be more widely
practiced, but doesn't provide a novel idea,
invention or mechanism to allow it to be more
widely practiced.// |
|
|
Are people already doing this? Do I care whether
more people practice it? (No.) Just an idea that
made us giggle. It still does. YMMV. |
|
|
//YMMV// Your mother mutilates voles? That's a bit of a
harsh response to an mfd... |
|
|
I meant YMMM. Moles, not voles. You can understand
the mistake, I'm sure. |
|
|
How about sulfur hexafluoride for one and helium for the other so one would have a deep voice the other high and squeeky. That's a comedy spectacular right there. |

Whoa, [doc], you're running this idea off the tracks
here! You'll have the congregation playing the
Wedding March on kazoos (which was my daughter's
idea for her own wedding). |
