Your oul’ wedding reception probably didn’t even have its own name.
Train Wreck
at“Vivienne, Knox and, indeed, all six of our children are such wonderful artists,” breathes [Angelina] Jolie, proudly wielding a finger painting of a hungry caterpillar. “And what better place to reflect their creative talents than my gown?”
At this point, [Luigi] Massi [master tailor for Atelier Versace] would have been forgiven for sobbing hysterically. The official line, however, is that he was only too happy to sew a random assortment of motorbikes, Eiffel Towers, mouse-like creatures and other “charming” artwork onto the train and veil of Jolie’s silk frock….While die-hard Brangelina fans are mooning sentimentally over this “exquisite expression of family love and dedication,” the rest of us are reaching for the sick bucket.”
FIGHT!

‘Wedstock’.
Cnoc Suain, Spiddal, Connemara, Co Galway at the weekend.
“You may you’ve heard the news that Ed Sheeran was in town last weekend. He celebrated his cousin Laura Sheeran’s wedding over 3 days at Cnoc Suain, a cultural retreat in Spiddal.
The event was named ‘Wedstock’ and had a music festival theme to it, with acts such as Bell x1 and the Walls playing, an R&R tent, Ireland’s first Disco Gay Barn and much much more! Ed and his parents said it was ‘The best wedding they have ever been to’. The cottage Ed stayed is pic 3 along with a Monday morning pic of Ed and Dearbhaill Troy (above), organiser of the event and member of the family team at Cnoc Suain…”
Wicklownews.net reports:
Traffic came to a standstill in Aughrim [on Saturday] afternoon while a wedding was taking place in the local church. It is understood the Opel Corsa had been parked in the church grounds with the handbrake left off, rolled on to the grass and on to a parked Audi.

It’s easy when you know how.
RTE 2’s Republic of Telly last night highlighted some of the best clichés of an Irish wedding.

The Best Men
at“We Are Brothers” by Baddy Paris and Rufus Starlight – a krautrocky message to their older sibling, who had asked them to be best men at his wedding and got this – possibly the most fabulous best-man speech ever – in response. They sez:
At his wedding we pleaded for our brother not to leave us, in the only way we knew how to say it; through the the medium of 80s music and video. We thought we’d done ok, but he left us anyway.
