WEDDING SHOWER ENTERTAINMENT
This
was great! The occasion was a wedding shower for two work friends,
Tommy and Rita. They were going to Hawaii on their honeymoon. We
took turns reading the verses, and gave the "gag gift" mentioned in RED
to them.
Tommy,
I’ve been thinking, and
I’m sure you aren’t prepared
To vacation in Hawaii
With its warm and balmy air.
For
you’ve been sort of busy,
Since the wedding happens soon.
And that is more important than
A real nice honeymoon.
Cindy,
are you all packed up?
I’ll bet that you are not.
For all the wedding planning takes
Each minute that you’ve got!
There
sure are many duties when
A wedding is prepared,
Like food and music, flowers, gowns…
Dear Cindy, aren’t you scared?
There’s
no need for terror, pal.
The wedding will be grand.
Then a honeymoon in paradise
On tropic island sand.
Since
you are both real tied up, now,
With wedding jobs to do,
We all chipped in and purchased some
Hawaiian things for you.
The
islands are quite wonderful.
We’re
sure you’ll have great fun
As
you relax and frolic in
The
warmth of sea and sun.
But
island sun is powerful,
So
stock up on supplies.
Take
suntan lotion for your skin
And
put these on your eyes!
(GIVES OVERSIZED TOY SUNGLASSES)
They
are a trifle large, I guess,
But
that way they will keep
Your
puffy eyelids hidden when
You
haven’t had much sleep!
You
will want to tip quite well,
Just
like a real big spender,
So
now I’ll give you lots of cash.
Though
it’s not legal tender!
(GIVES
FAKE MONEY)
It is
substantial looking, though,
And I
have often found
That
it’s quite nice to have a bunch
Of
bills to throw around.
Here I have a shovel that
(GIVES SAND SHOVEL)
I
hope you’ll both enjoy.
I got you only one so you
Can
learn to share your toys.
For
married life means give and take,
And
you will often find
That
both of you can dig a hole,
But
not at the same time!
Tourists on vacation like
To
pass the time of day
Chatting
with each person that
Might
chance to pass their way.
But
you are on your honeymoon.
You
have no need to chat.
So
keep those folks away from you
(GIVES SHARK HAT)
By
wearing this great hat!
People
then will not bother you.
Your
friendship they won’t seek,
For
once they see this silly hat
They’ll
think that you’re a geek!
That’s great for a new bride,
For there are lady’s panties that
Are hidden down inside.
And
that could be quite handy. See,
You
won’t have to explain
Just
how you lost your panties while
Just
drinking some champagne.
And
Tommy, for your final gift
A
floral lei will do!
(PUTS LEI AROUND Tommy’ S NECK)
A lei
extends alohas from
The
island out to you!
It is a bra, not lei,
And what it is that this extends
I’d just as soon not say!
You think it best to do.
For they are just a token of
Good will that’s felt for you.
You’re such a perfect pair.
And we are quite excited at
The future that you’ll share.
EITHER READER
Let's
raise your glass to Tommy
And
to Cindy, soon his wife,
And
wish them both great happiness
Through
their entire life.
