Any international brides/grooms out there?

We don't worry about our wedding being unique...

    ever since we realized that one of the announcements at the ceremony was going to be, "The blessing over the bread will be given by the ex-husband of one of the brides."

    Awesome!  I hope you specify which bride.  It's just not fair to leave people wondering.

    Ah, but they'll have so much more fun at the reception if they all get to speculate!

    @eloping:  There are two brides, but only one wedding.  It's a same-sex wedding.

    Yeah, I think you are going to have to do something over the top... otherwise it seems like it is shaping up to be just like every other wedding... ;)

    I think it's awesome that you and your fiancee were both able to keep exes around to be so supportive of you now.  And that line is just going to be fantastic!

    I heard that in two of the three weddings I went to this year! ;) 

    I agree that you should use one of your names. As fun as speculation can be, I'd want to know! And maybe (just a suggestion) say, "former husband and long time friend", or something like that. "Ex" puts an emphasis on something in the past that ended. Obviously your relationship with him is much more than that, so I would use more positive phrasing.

    Well, to be serious, we'll probably just use his name, without further identifying him.  There will be under 20 people at the entire ceremony, and more than half of them will be relatives of him, me, or both.  The six or eight who are not are close enough friends to know about him already.

    Well, the fact that the MOH and the "dude of honor" are both my kids might be a hint as to which of us has been married before.  Wink
