We were warned my brother-in-law's fiance's family was very conservative. Didn't stop our shenanigans.

At the wedding rehearsal we did the wave from the pews.

Decorated their truck as is normally done, including the rope swung across the back of the truck with the toilet paper roll barely touching the street so it unrolled as they drove out of the military base.

Then at the reception I ended up to be the only single gal to catch the bouquet (Mark and I weren't married yet). Ahhh, I thought! I wasn't the only single female! I ran behind the bride's over 90 year old grandmother and held my arms over the seated woman to catch the bouquet and smoothly move it into her lap!

My husband's stepfather brought baby powder in a plastic mustard bottle. Stepfather and mom had to leave to make a long trip home (from Phoenix to TX), so he gave us instructions.

While everyone was in the reception, we put vaseline on the inside door handles of the couple's car. Then we sprayed the baby powder into the air vents. While the car was off, we set the air and fans at high.

We let everyone know that when the happy couple was to leave, there would be a show.

We had to leave for our long ride home from Phoenix to CA. Bride's family was dissappointed we were leaving and wanted us to come back for any other parties.

We learned later that the bride's family eagerly urged the happy couple to get going. The couple couldn't figure out why her family was in such a hurry to see them go.

The couple sat in their car, turned it on, heard a soft whoosh, and a 12 foot high white powder cloud flew into the air. Then their hands slipped off the indoor car handles cuz of the vaseline. They jumped out of the car to the uproaring laughter of her family.

Paul's always vowed revenge, but hasn't managed it yet.
