True lovers don't need a good carriage to take them to the church-or even a Rolls Royce. This old Cockney song is nown and sung all over England:
"Daisy, Daisy.
Give me your answer,do.
I'm half crazy.
All for the love of you.
It won't be a stylish marriage
- I can't afford a carriage.
But you'll look sweet
Upon the seat
Of a bicycle made for two. "
But a wedding is a special occasion and most families spend a lot of money to clebrate it. They hire big cars to carry the bride and groom, and they invite all their friends and relations to a reception afterwards.
The bridgeroom arrives first at the church with his best man. He is usually the groom's best friend. He acts as a steadying influence on the nervous groom - makes sure that he does not lose the ring and checks the soles of his new shoes to see that he is not displaying a price tag as he kneels in front of the congregation.
The bride arrives late with her father and her bridesmaids.
At the reception afterwards champagne is drunk, a monumental cake is eaten, and uncles make nostalgic and sentimental speeches. The bridegroom thanks everyone for coming. And the best man makes a funny speech.
