“We attended a wedding in a gorgeous California estate built in the ’20s. After the wedding, the couple wanted to change into more comfortable outfits, EXCEPT someone stole all their clothes. The people who were supposed to be helping the bride and groom were kidnapped by drunken groomsmen, then those guys stole all their clothes and their room key (funny old keys), so they were in their undies and locked in the changing room. Not all keys are interchangeable, we learned. So someone called a locksmith. No food, no drinks, a hot July day; it was AWFUL. The bride’s mom went to get some clothes for them from the nearest Target. The bride’s dad called the police, but no one knew where the groomsmen were. They need to feed this crowd, but the mother-in-law didn’t want to yet (‘just another minute!’). The locksmith refuses to work on the lock, thinking he would damage it. The police were no help; they couldn’t find the groomsmen.”
“The bride’s father figured he would go through the second-story window, but we talked him out of that. Then, my husband called the fire department and explained. Those guys are GOOD. They managed to get the door open! Don’t ask me how. But we were so hungry by then, we just went to a drive-thru and went home.
The bride’s father (a HIGH-powered attorney) sued all the groomsmen and won. It stopped being funny after an hour, and the groomsmen should have realized that. A 10-minute kidnap? Cute. A three-hour kidnap? NOT CUTE AT ALL.”
