Posts Tagged ‘Ring Pillow –Why are my rings in the Bay?’

In my five years of officiating wedding ceremonies I have never dropped the rings.  Thank Goodness!  But recently, something happened that I have never experienced before.  A two year old pitched a fit just prior to coming down the aisle and during this little tantrum, he flicked his wrist and the ring pillow flew over my head and into the Chesapeake Bay!  Thankfully, this couple took my advice and did not put the rings on that flying pillow. 

My advice is to not trust a child with thousands of dollars of jewelry!  If you feel that you must put something on the pillow then put those fake gold or silver plastic rings on the pillow.  Give the rings to the matron of honor, the best man or the officiant, but don’t entrust them to someone who will turn that ring pillow into a soccer ball or foot ball or something worse, bay trash!
