Couple Go Dairy Queen on their Wedding

AY sent me this link and I was all ready to blast some people for getting married at Dairy Queen. I mean, who the fuck gets married at Dairy Queen? The same people who get married at halftime at a Sixers game? Those weirdo types who get married in an aquarium?

But..man they are almost loveable in this sad, sad world. Damnit. What is wrong with me today? I read this whole story and I’m just…

What kind of wedding reception includes chicken fingers, french fries and ice cream cake? A wedding at Dairy Queen.

James Manzano and Toni Walker were wed Saturday at the franchise restaurant in Bethlehem Township, where Walker works as an assistant manager.

The wedding was planned and prepared within three weeks, after general manager Luis Romero insisted the ceremony be held at the Easton Avenue location when he learned Walker was planning a simple wedding at the courthouse.

Tables and booths were filled with about two dozen guests, as well as a handful of regular customers who were surprised to find themselves witnesses at a wedding while eating their ice cream.

“I thought it was very romantic,” said 8-year-old customer Erin Wimmer, from Bethlehem Township. “It’s fun to get married at a place you don’t usually get married, like where you can get ice cream.”

Romero said it was the first wedding ever held at a Dairy Queen restaurant. Source

Isn’t that an eight-year-old’s fucking DREAM wedding? That may be the best quote I’ve read all month.

I GUESS there are like four people left in the Lehigh Valley now who at least have some semblance of what could otherwise be called “couth.” So, good for them. Beats the fucking courthouse anyway.

Honestly though, is it me or is getting married at a Dairy Queen a step above a McDonalds? What would be a step above Dairy Queen? Certainly not Long John Silvers. God that place gives me the shivers.

So, hey, kudos to these people. I had to put it in somehow and I wanted to blast them…

Whatever. Shut up. Stop looking at me like that.

I’m going to kick a kid in the shin.
