"Good news! The manager said we can do the V6 Camry at that price. Now let's talk undercoating..."
Fr. Bob Ross takes the time to sign a wedding certificate making sure to add a lovely evergreen tree in the margin.
Always the planner, Mary scheduled her wedding for the vigil of Laetare Sunday so that even the vestments would match her wedding colors.
Fr. Bob Ross
Ha! That was my first thought, but I couldn't come up with a good Bob Ross caption. Good one!
The roses match his vestments beautifully!
To get Mary back for making him and his groomsmen wear pink Joe booked a priest with a fro, a DJ with a mullet, and limo driver with a mohawk.
Happy little trees!
After many, many, years of discerning bad movies, Gene Shalit discerned the call to be a Priest.
Intent on signing the register, Father failed to notice the unearthly cross between a bird and a spider that had emerged from his biretta and was making ready to strike.
"Let's check the church bill....flowers- check.... checks for altar girls- check.... Rogaine Extra Strength With Testosterone bottle- check...."
"Let's see correct form--got it.
Correct matter--yep.
Good. Now all that is left is to perform the 'Electric Slide' at the reception and this marriage is valid!"
Hey, kids! How many things wrong can you find in this picture?
Send your answers to Cardinal Castrillon-Hoyos, editor of Father Fortescue's Young Liturgist Magazine. A drawing will be held from all correct entries, and the winner's parish will receive a set of six acolyte surplices for each liturgical season.
Please, no entries from readers over 18. Parents and pastors are asked not to help, as that will not teach our young liturgists anything.
What an absolute shame…another invalid wedding is signed into the book of death as the erring couple completely agree.

Bob Ross!
Thank you - I was trying to remember that name earlier this week....
Krystyne's Wedding Planners guarantee that every detail of your special day will be absolutely tailored to your requirements, down to co-ordinating the colour of the vestments with the floral theme.
Father marries the good doctor hoping to get a better price for surgically removing the fern growing out of his head.
No Mitre? No problem! Topical weight palm frond hats are just the thing for the hip, discerning, and overheated prelate. Supplies are limited--and prices double the last two weeks of Lent so get yours now!
Mr. T's younger brother, Fr. U, is well known to his fellow clerics.
Sign right here, please!
...and here is where I got my hat...
After years of each going at it alone, the USCCB's Vocations office and Afro-Sheen have finally started a joint marketing effort.
... and here's the number of the salon that did my perm ...
(H/T to Domini Sumus)
John and Suzie, together fro life.
I mean for.
I guess I do mean fro...
Fr. Treebeard was happy to include a nuptial Mass in this year's entmoot.
Not a caption, just info. The priest is active in the Diocese of Phoenix.
Gee,I sometimes feel bad for laughing at these comments. Could they be occasions of sin? :)...BTW,Tim Ferguson, WFW, & J.Madden's comments are my faves!
On a serious note , God bless this priest and the couple. Let's all pray that they be blessed in their respective vocations.
Interesting that he is wearing the rose vestment from Almy. Was it a wedding on either Gaudete or Laetare Sunday??????
I thought of Bob Ross as well, but Bob Ross would never put just one tree in the margin...it would always have a friend. Two happy little trees.
For the record...nothing ill intended with the Bob reference.
Taken in perspective my students often tell me I look like Drew Carey.
You decide which is worse.
So giddy he can hardly contain himself, Johnny realized that with this signature he will finally be able to go "all the way" with Suzy.
Sorry if that is too irreverent. The look on his face is "priceless"
MaTREEmony grows in Brooklyn? I don't know.
I couldn't get past the tree "growing out of his head."
Oops. You never see that stuff when you're the photographer, unless you're a professional. Why? Depth perception?
I think the groom is the happiest person in the picture. Kind of like, "haha got her!!!"
Palm Sunday?
After the shoot, Fr. Bob Ross signed autographs for the extras in the newest spot for his wildly popular new hair care product for clergy, Soul Glow.
So you see my other palm tree hat has fronds here and a lovely bouquet of roses just there.
When you follow the teachings of the Church on marriage, you too can have a branch on the Tree of Life. That's how you get "little acorns".
Fr. Bugnini, pastor of St. Paul VI Church in Palm Springs decides to form a Consilium with the lovely couple to "enrich and simplify" the marriage rite. ;)
They do look like a happy couple.
My vestment colors are Blush and Bashful! They are two entirely different shades of pink.
Google Map has got it all wrong. Look here, turn right on Georgia Avenue, go thru the two traffic lights, then turn left...and you're at the reception hall.
What is "CARNAC THE MAGNIFICENT" from the old JOHNNY CARSON SHOW doing back here?
Suzy regretted letting Brad and Fr. Bob coordiate the colors.
for Thomas: I don't know why, but this makes me think of this:

...and seven down spells "matrimony"...
Only after seeing the wedding photos, did Father realize the full impact of going sock-foot in the carpeted church.
Bless his hear, the groom does look like the happiest person in the picture. May he keep that grin for the rest of his life.
...Then turn right at the second light and on your left is the store that sells the "Chia Heads."
*Groom: "hehe...Crazy priest, forgot to remove the tribal headgear from the last wedding..."
*Bride: "Leave him alone honey....this is the Episcopal Church remember...
"Like wow, man! I now pronounce you like dude and chick!"
For the Bride and Groom:

My favorite dancing...should be liturgical.
"Why yes, I did used to be left-handed before the doctors surgically implanted this bouquet of flowers!"
(it's hard to be funnier than the others when you're the 51st post)
And J Madden set the bar high with the second post.
Dr. B,
:-D
WhollyRoamin'Catholic,
Glad to see that you can see those Flickr pics now. :-)
... and presiding at Lisa and Ralph's nuptials was the Reverend 'Sideshow' Bob Terwilliger.
The groom does look enviably happy, but note also his damp forehead.
They must be reviewing the bill for the Hair performance? "Now I'll mark off the cost of the leotards!"
The gay priest is clearly visible. Now we're waiting the gay couple to be married by this man. Rome may be of a different opinion, but the Lord's creativity in creating man is stronger!
Ton,
???
The priest looks like the fuzzy Jesus from the "This is Our Faith" series my elementary school used. Talk about conforming oneself to Christ, eh?
"Blush and Bashful..." Hilarious, Fr. Jay! But I doubt many more of the male readers will get the reference.
Really good submissions this time around but it was hard to beat the Bob Ross reference. well done!
