Surprise celebrity guest at the wedding
We had a special guest appear at our wedding. It was just before the reception and we were doing some photos on the front steps of the King Edward. I saw some autograph folks standing around so I knew something was up. But I didn’t know who it was.
The general manager met us inside and congratulated us. He also gave us a very valuable tip. He alerted us that the person the autograph hounds were waiting for was making his way downstairs. I couldn’t believe it! I knew he was doing a show in town that night. One of my groomsmen had even joked about ditching the wedding to go see the show up the street at Massey Hall. The manager told us to get our photographer ready and we could possibly get a photo with him. I couldn’t believe it. He was coming right out the front doors.
We waited about 10 minutes and had to get a move on with doing the wedding photos, so our hopes were fading. Our photographers went upstairs to setup while we milled about in the lobby hoping for a last chance to see him. A few disguised autograph seekers were waiting as well. We were just about to leave when I saw his entourage. I got my mom and my sister’s boyfriend to try snapping a bunch of photos. Autograph hounds swarmed. Jenn got right in his way blocking his exit as we waited for him to finish and went he turned, she asked him…
“Mr. Seinfeld, can we get a photo with you for our wedding?”
!! Yeah! Jerry Seinfeld, in person! Unfortunately, he turned us down…typical Jerry style too…”I’m really sorry, I just can’t. I have to go to the show. Really sorry.” Exactly like you’d see on the show. That would have made a great wedding photo. Definitely one of the great moments of the day. Oh yeah…the getting married part was pretty good too.
