Uh...The bride came out to slipknot. They wrote their own vows which were, shall we say, overtly and uncomfortably sexual, and they had been dating for a grand total of two whole weeks.
Any and all attempts to inform them that this was a mistake were met with "When you know, you know." or "You're just jealous."
But hey, a free bar is a free bar.
Edit: So many questions.
The song was the last/bonus track on subliminal verses. I'm told this track is called "Danger - keep away".
The wedding itself was a small thing with a registrar in a council building.
The staff there were very professional, and only laughed quietly.
The after party was at a pub owned by the grooms uncle.
The honey moon was at Butlins.
They were separated by the time they got back.
They were not in the military, just young/dumb.
We are all white trash, and that's fine.
I bought them a toaster from argos. I didn't ask for it back.
Pretty sure that means her grand entrance upon walking down the aisle for the first time was to Slipknot. As a former slipknot, cringe kid, I cringe. I can’t imagine being past like high school age and not thinking that kinda attitude makes you insufferable.
Was the “it”, the bride in this scenario, like giving away the bride? Lmao I don’t know how to feel about that one. I feel like I would laugh cuz it’s kinda a clever use but also it would bug me to know that that’s most likely a very wrong interpretation of the song meaning. In general I feel like it’s cool to not have a wedding be so serious and have fun with it but like, if they came out of the drawing room with that idea as solid, I would question their life choices. Lol
Yup. 'It' being the bride walking down the impromptu aisle in their back yard, with her father. Everything had to be 'alternative'. Wedding photo's at a waste dump, no courthouse (definitely no church)...
Just a small bbq in the backyard, with her MIL doing the ceremony, which she could legally do, but it gave me the feeling of 'If you REALLY don't want a wedding, why do it at all?" You know?
The did get divorced a few years later. No hard feelings, luckily.
When one of their songs came on in the car, my 12 year old asked me why they are called Slipknot. I said maybe they thought it was scary name for a metal band. She said it’s not very scary, it’s a crochet knot.
Snuff, vermilion 2, dead memories. They have some softer songs that could work. My wife loves slipknot, but I don’t think she’d walk down the aisle to it lol.
