Dressed to the nines in an idyllic setting next to a lake for a formal wedding and nothing can possibly go wrong, right?
Before the parson got to the “have and to hold forevermore” part, a deafening squawking over-audioed the wedding vows and got everyone’s attention. Before anyone could say, “Kidney pie gives me collywobbles,” one of the bridesmaids had shed her shoes and jumped in the lake, where she targeted a black swan with its beak around a tiny gosling’s neck.
The bridesmaid never broke stride as she ran, waded and swam to the gosling’s rescue. After returning the baby goose to its mother, the bridesmaid was given an appreciative honk goodbye, and those are the weddings memories are made of.
