Surprise

I’ve conducted many weddings at many different times – but only once on Christmas Day itself. The group of people I saw were all family members who had come together from all over the place to be present.
For about half an hour I was introduced as a friend of the host and hostess to people who were surprised that they had never met me before; and wondered why I was there at what happened to be a family reunion.
Then suddenly, as a familiar piece of music flooded the room, everyone in the room stopped speaking. The surprise wedding was about to begin.
