Nightmare

I have officially had my first wedding nightmare.  I'll do my best to translate.  We had begun the reception, the guests were arriving, finding their seats, getting drinks at the bar, all seemed normal.  Then the food comes out.  Now, I must set up a little background for you, Nate and I are thinking of an evening ceremony with an appetizer and dessert reception.  My mom and I were considering our options for the appetizers...should they come out all at once, should we have waves of appetizers, appy stations, the possibilities are endless.  In my dream, we went with the waves of appetizers, the first one was on its way out.  They are set up beautifully and they look delicious.  I need to add, our reception entertainment for the evening were clowns...yep clowns and they were greeting people at the food tables.  Our guests make their way to the tables and instead of plates, they are grabbing to-go boxes...weird.  Then I notice them proceeding to a til, where they paid for their food!  And the best part...or worst part...they head to their cars, with their to-go boxes...and leave!  As they leave the reception, we hear them saying "that was the worst wedding I've ever been to, who makes guests pay for their food...and the clowns!"

In my dream, we were so confused, we were screaming to them "Come back!  There's been a mistake!"  But they weren't having it, they left.  And we were left feeling as though we owed our guests refunds.  And what do we do with these clowns?  Disaster.
