The wedding ceremony

The wedding ceremony came to the point where the minister asked if any-one had anything to say concerning the union of the bride and groom

The moment of utter silence was broken when a beautiful young woman carrying a child stood up. She starts walking slowly towards the minister

The congregation was aghast - you could almost hear a pin drop. The groom's jaw dropped as he stared in at the approaching young woman

and child. Chaos ensued………. The bride threw the bouquet into the air and burst out crying.

Then the groom's mother fainted. The best men started giving each other looks

and wondering how to save the situation. The minister asked the woman, "Can you tell us, why you came for-ward? What do you have to say?"

There was absolute silence in the church

The woman replied, "We can't hear you in the back."

Thanks Edna!
