For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for March 23, 2016

No, John, you showing up was probably what went wrong…

You hate men, don’t you. How come?

At the end of the day, the only thing that actually matters is that you get married to the person you love.

47 here.

33 years for us on June 3rd :-)

was told the things that go wrong are the things you remember. They make the wedding interesting. We spent one of my wedding showers talking about all the things that went wrong at the guests weddings and laughing. As long as no one dies (or is severely injured) or there’s no major disaster (no bridzilla, your maid of honor’s makeup being uneven doesn’t count) later you’ll laugh. Roll with it and enjoy yourself.

24 yrs. next month…3rd time was a charm. First was ‘73, Second ’83, and Third ’93……I decide whether or not to renew her contract every ten years so she’s good until 2023!!!

54 years this year

Twenty-six this June. Got married on a weekend, just before the wedding the preacher was having the witnesses sign the license. Suddenly he came to me and said that he couldn’t marry us that the license wasn’t any good, that it had expired. I thought it was a joke that my brother, the best man, was trying to play on me. But no they had put the wrong date on the license and it was dated over 30 days and not the 3 days since I’d got it. After a frantic phone call we eventually were married that day if only 20 minutes late.

43 years with us.Is it just a bunch of old folks who read this strip?

It’s been a standard joke for years that the bride and family do all the work for the wedding and all the groom has to do is “show up”.

For hubby and I in later April 35 years. I remember during rehearsal I was going to try for a prank of practice walk of turning around and walking away but I did not as I knew the man I married then as now the right one for me. And with my mom who has advancing Dementia my hubby is a saint.

I cannot remember did Phil go through with the wedding?

46 years….

we got married in 1972 on new years eve the partyers at the hotel saw her wedding dress and knocked on the door like room service when I opened the door just a crack they tried to force their way in, I barely got he door shut pun intended and we never answered the door the rest of the night

As Ross Geller in Friends said, “As the groom, all you have to do is show up and try to say the right name.”

All you newly weds! 58 and counting.

“Geo”? Pronounced “Gee-oh”????

On our 50th, I relinquished the requirement of the annual performance review. At the 56th, I was considering reinstating it, but I couldn’t remember her name, and, anyway, no one else would have me.

37 years of not married for us. We look like an old married couple and act like one too. But when ever I suggest actually getting married she just says no. I’m beginning to think maybe she doesn’t like me!

We were married nearly 55 years and I still remember the recessional when I had to practically run to keep up with my new husband. Still have to laugh at it. One of my fond memories.

Thanks for the advice. Two problems though: he’s already married and I’m not gay. ;-)

Marry your best friend…. I’ve been with mine for 41 years. :D

Just celebrated my 27th back in December! ♥

How do you pronounce, “Geo”. Is it “Jo” or “Gee-Oh”?

50 here ! ! !

26 years in October. Just remember, we grooms don’t show up until page 86 in the wedding album.

As things turned out, it might have been better if he hadn’t shown up.
