I performed a marriage today. There were about 100 guests, mostly from the bride's side. They probably wondered why the bride chose an American guy in a suit with a big zit on his nose to perform the ceremony.
(As a side note, a couple of years ago I was teaching a Primary -- Sunday school -- class to a group of kids aged 8-12. An 11 year old girl asked how old I was. I told her I was 29. She said, "I'm surprised -- you look a lot younger!" I replied, "Thank you!" She then added, "You know why? Because you have so many spots [zits] on your face.")
It was a nice ceremony. One of the people on the program didn't show up, but we worked around that. Mostly it was nice to see two young people make a commitment to each other.
