Wedding Haiku

One of my guilty pleasures is to pop into Barnes & Noble and roam the aisles for inspiration on all things entertaining. So much of what we do in event consulting and design is rooted in foodie-ness, interior design, landscape architecture, you name it. . . so there is eye candy on every aisle.

Our office is already filled to the brim with wedding magazines, but inevitably I find another ten we don’t routinely get. So, with pile in arms, I tuck up in a corner and thumb through my mini library before making my way to the register.

I was just in B&N the other day, thumbing through a BRIDES magazine and sipping a hot chocolate when my husband ceremoniously dumped this little gem on our café table. The place being packed, I tried to stifle my chortles (chuckles-slash-snorts) while reading these little Wedding Haiku, and I promptly picked up a copy for one of our hilarious brides.

You remember the 3 line poetry composed of 5 syllables/7 syllables/5 syllables from your English prep school days? Nerd alert: some of my childhood friends (the best kind!) still email me in Haiku . . . and I promptly respond, in Haiku. Shame.

I snapped a few for your enjoyment:

Who, me?

Hope these make you stop working and laugh for just a moment- it is Friday, y’all!
