Quote From: jarestoIf Angela sees something in this DRUNKEN fool, we don't know, then give him another chance and RENEW those vows under a more favorable, less stressful situation. After counseling, and a successful completion of the AA 12 Step Program for him, and he stays off for at least a year and prove his Love and Dedication.
Angela, yes, if you are going to do this -- lighten up. Take it from a guy that put to major weddings together in the same decade. Yes our original wedding date was September 6, 1997, our renewal, because we wanted the kids to be out of school for it, and the date sounded cute was on July 7, 2007. Get it 7-7-7, and yes our reminder magnets had slot machines with the 7 7 7 up on them.
I love my wife with all my heart. I would never do anything to embarrass her, or our children, And we BOTH enjoyed putting together every little detail of each wedding, from the cake topper, to the ceremony and all the way down to the wedding favor. Oh and for a twist, I DJ'ed the renewal of vows, as I wanted to make sure our music got played. Both wedding were remarkable, memorable, stressful for the desire to have nothing go wrong, but full of love, lack of liquor at least before the ceremony and we still are like love birds today.
I pray you some day, feel what we feel, if now with the one you are with, then each of you with partners that could fully appreciate and understand who you are today, as that may never change.
I don't think the guy is an alcoholic, and I don't think he was so nervous he needed to drink. When I read the story he said he drank one shot then everyone wanted to do one with him. He also stated that he rarely drinks. I think he was just not thinking, not realizing that 4,5 or 6 shots to someone who rarely drinks is A LOT of alcohol.
I am not excusing his ruining the wedding, but I just didn't get the impression that this dude is a raging alcoholic.
