OUR PRIEST FREAKED OUT WHEN HE SAW ME GOING DOWN THE AISLE — ONLY THEN DID I UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS GOING ON.
We planned our wedding for a year with my fiance, Jeremiah, who we've been together with for 9 years. It was important for us to be married in the same church where my parents had tied the knot. We'd met with our family priest, gone over all the readings, and trusted him completely.
But then, on the day of the wedding, disaster struck. The priest called to say he was in the hospital. I panicked, thinking this might ruin our big day, but he assured us that a trusted colleague of his would fill in. We reluctantly agreed, trusting his word.
So, there I was, walking down the aisle, feeling overwhelmed with joy as I looked into Jeremiah's happy eyes. But something felt strange. The new priest looked like he'd seen a ghost. His eyes grew wide, and he started sweating. As I got closer, he leaned toward me, his voice trembling.
Him: I won't marry you.
Me: What...why?!
Him (looking somewhere past me and yelling): ""I won't marry them!""
Everyone GASPED. Suddenly, I looked at his eyes and immediately understood WHAT was going on. ⬇️
