Transcript
It's Haystack.
Speaker A:You know that line at weddings, if anyone objects to this union, speak now or forever hold your peace.
Speaker A:It's kind of a weird tradition if you think about it.
Speaker A:It's basically the officiant saying, last call for chaos.
Speaker A:And no one ever objects.
Speaker A:Not.
Speaker A:Not in real life.
Speaker A:That's only in the movies, right?
Speaker A:In the movies, the church doors fly open, someone runs in, all out of breath.
Speaker A:Wait.
Speaker A:Meanwhile, in actual life, people are too polite.
Speaker A:Oh, I know he's secretly married and has three other families, but I don't.
Speaker A:I don't want to interrupt.
Speaker A:They've already paid for the flowers.
Speaker A:I stumbled across this thread online.
Speaker A:People talking about actual wedding objections, and apparently weddings are way more exciting than I've ever known.
Speaker A:One woman said that her aunt stood up, announced that she did not want the family continuing with a man like him, and then the bride ran out crying.
Speaker A:The couple did not get married that day, but they did eventually have a private ceremony and they are still together.
Speaker A:Can you imagine being that aunt years later?
Speaker A:So how's married life, hun?
Speaker A:It's great.
Speaker A:Okay, that's awkward.
Speaker A:Another person said a lightning bolt struck right at the moment the officiant asked for objections.
Speaker A:Which is not so much an objection as God hitting a giant red buzzer.
Speaker A:Any objections?
Speaker A:Everybody goes, yeah, I think the sky has some concerns.
Speaker A:One of my favorites, a couple had a baby in attendance.
Speaker A:The officiant says, does anyone object?
Speaker A:And the baby just yells, y.
Speaker A:Perfect timing.
Speaker A:And that is the only acceptable objection because babies object to everything.
Speaker A:Do you take this woman to be your lawful wife?
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:Would you like a nap?
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:Would you like the thing you've been crying for for 45 minutes?
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:One story got really dramatic though.
Speaker A:The groom's ex burst in and said she's still in love with him and begged him not to go through with it.
Speaker A:Classic movie moment.
Speaker A:But then the mother of the groom walked over, grabbed the ex by the hair and drug her all the way out without saying a single word.
Speaker A:Just came back in smiling.
Speaker A:One word, which is terrifying.
Speaker A:Lady turned into a mouth.
Speaker A:She had been waiting for an excuse.
Speaker A:Clearly she probably practiced at home.
Speaker A:Okay, I grabbed here.
Speaker A:I pivot.
Speaker A:I maintain a smooth exit.
Speaker A:Oh, one more.
Speaker A:Wedding had a would be bride who had apparently slept with the pastor before the ceremony.
Speaker A:And someone had video evidence and chose to reveal it during that objection portion.
Speaker A:Which means they sat through the entire ceremony thinking, not yet, not yet.
Speaker A:Wait for my moment.
Speaker A:Like it was the season finale of some reality TV show.
Speaker A:Absolutely wild.
Speaker A:Oh, there was one.
Speaker A:There was one more.
Speaker A:This.
Speaker A:This was actually kind of close to the original purpose of that tradition.
Speaker A:The officiant asked if anyone objected and a woman in the back just calmly stood up and said, he is still married to me.
Speaker A:And our son is in the car.
Speaker A:The groom says, she's just crazy, crazy woman.
Speaker A:This woman walks up and hands the bride her phone.
Speaker A:The bride looks at it, takes off her veil and just leaves.
Speaker A:That's amazing.
Speaker A:That's efficient use of technology.
Speaker A:And again, that's kind of close to the original intent.
Speaker A:The objection line existed to stop things like bigamy, forced marriages and people accidentally marrying relatives.
Speaker A:Which made sense centuries ago.
Speaker A:Maybe, but today you should have all that cleared up before you get the license.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:Because at this point, if someone objects at a live ceremony, the wedding's not a ceremony anymore.
Speaker A:It's a live episode of Jerry Springer.
Speaker A:Unless, of course, one of your reasons is one of these six legitimate reasons to object at a wedding.
Speaker B:Well, gather round, folks.
Speaker B:It's the time of day when we laugh and smile in a light hearted way.
Speaker B:Tune in for the giggles and let's kick back.
Speaker B:Here comes the fun.
