They are good people, but good Lord!
This is the manager of the Dodge's chicken store in Selmer, TN near Jackson, TN. My wife sent them to me from work, she got them from a co-worker, who got them from the bride in the pics.

The bride and groom. Is she marrying her son? It looks like she was rode hard and put up wet.






The Ringbearer and Flowergirl. Note the Dale, Jr. "8" on the minivan in the background as well as the ricer stripe..


The Bride and her Maids of Honor. Wow, none of them are pregnant or smoking in the pic!


The Groom, his Best man and Groomsmen

Why the fuck would you put these people's pictures on the internet.  A little respect is in order here.  Try posting some pics of yourself first, for our comment and review.

Look at pic #2.  Did they have the wedding next to a gas station out behind the bathrooms?  Perhaps thats how they met.  He got her number from the bathroom wall and really did get a "good time."

I have put my pic up on here before. I'm a white, goofy looking, fat-ass, how much worse could anyone be that that?

Her co-workers were talking about putting the pic up on collegehumor.com, I figured fewer people would see them here than there, surely. I was actually more worried that I would offend people that would think this was a cool idea.

And they weren't interrupted by tornadoes or UFO's either...

My wife said they were lucky she didn't have the preacher wear the Miss Birdy Dodge's chicken suit when he officiated..
The bow tie is actually pretty cool. I think the bride's maids should have been dressed in the same theme, the men beat them (in a fashion sense, not because they live in trailers!Doh!)

Of course this is still cooler than a Klingon or other Star Trek themed wedding unless you're in Federation dress uniforms.

Not to sound like a bible-belt preacher, but, the last time I read mine (KJV bible) marriage is a blessed, holy, sanctified relationship between two people and God.  Sorry... I don't see anything funny here. Now, move along.

That's EXACTLY what I was thinking. It's a real WTF? moment.

The ring bearer and flower girl are cute as hell in the fourth pic.

I kind of admire him for pulling off the real-tree vests, but even I wouldn't've worn jeans to my wedding.

I wish them every happiness.

Who cares? The wedding may be funny to you but at least they had a wedding- better than a single mom or something.

I do like the new tennis shoes in the last pic though.

Sometimes I'm a real critical bastard and I'm trying really hard to pin down something specific to trash in these pictures. All I can say is it looks like they didn't have a lot of money and possibly some kids got a dad. Hell, I got married barefoot in a Hawaiian shirt and nobody around.

Looks about like normal Selmer folks. Never did like that little slow spot in the road.



Edit: Not to try to outdo you or anything, but that's a pretty nice wedding.  My brother and I went to one here where the father of the bride walked into the church, and got mad when they told him to put his cowboy hat in the foyer before he could go give the bride away. (this is while people are standing and watching the bride tell her father "Hurry up, just put it on the table")

The wedding music was done via a home stereo system worked by the preacher.

After the wedding, the reception was in the back yard of the grooms fathers trailer. The tent covering the tables was donated by a friend of the father, unfortunately, he owned a mortuary, and the tent had big letters on the side "XXX funeral home."

The funeral home tents were covering a long table, irregularly shaped, with a white sheet over it. When asked what was there, the groom replied, "That's all the likker, we're jus' waitin' on the preacher to leave." --Fair enough.

At one point, the women noticed they,for the most part, were the only ones left at the reception. All the men had stepped down to the grooms fathers' shop, where he they were playing with the homebuilt monster truck, revving it up and working on it(DURING the damn reception!)

Yeah, I thought it was kind of funny... but I wish them luck.  Looks like they put a lot of thought into the wedding and there is nothing freakishingly wierd about anyone in the pix.

I've been to a lot stranger looking weddings and they were in the city.

I'm sorry y'all, my wife corrected me on the location of the Dodge's store. It's in Ft. Myers, FL, not Selmer, TN.

Sorry to all TN residents and I'm even more sorry for FL residents...

I guess she is right, I don't listen to half of what she says to me..they don't even have a Dodge's in Selmer, TN, but everything else is correct.

the tent had big letters on the side "XXX funeral home."

And I bet the chairs said the same on the bottom.  I'll admit my family Christmas party last night had chairs from a local funeral home where a family member works.

"That's all the likker, we're jus' waitin' on the preacher to leave." --Fair enough.

You don't know how many times I've heard statements like that growing up.  The polite preachers know to leave early so the fun can start.

Many years ago I used to drive a local preacher around for a little extra money and to get away from the family farm after he had an accident and lost his sight.  It's amazing how quickly the alcohol cans and bottles disappear that are out in the open the rest of the time.  I came to the conclusion that the people that did that weren't two-faced or hypocritical like I had originally assumed.  They simply did it out of respect for the man of God.  Don't be too critical of people when they do that sort of thing.  Their motives are sometimes good.z

They did that because they did not have the balls to face a man of god, because they are sheeple that think they might go to hell.

I would rather go to that wedding and reception then some $40,000 coronation (sp?) with 500 stuck up strangers that would not give you the time of day even in a church.

At least there was not a 24 on the van.....then I might have lost all respect.

I wish them the best even if I don't know who they are.

Agree 100%

My wedding was more "upscale" and "classy" than this one.  BFD.  It ended in divorce.

These folks will probably grow old together while loving each other every minute.  Bless them.

As mentioned previously, this wedding wasn't in Tennessee.  I'd like to add that it ain't Redneck either.

I would have to agree.

I don't know the people in the pictures.

I am originally from TN, and I know the difference between a redneck and "countrified" folks.

They are cleaned up, something that many rednecks consider abnormal.

I don't wear the type of clothes they chose, but hey, I can respect their decision.

Heck, at least they are getting married, they have respect for one another to commit.

As to how long it will last, who knows??


FYI:  Not bashing any rednecks, just noting the difference...in my mind....
