Just a little more
During the wedding rehearsal the groom approached the pastor with an unusual offer:
"Look, I'll give you one hundred dollars if you'd change the wedings vows. When you get to the part where I'm to promise to 'love,honour and obey' and 'forsaking all others, be faithful to her forever', I'd appreciate it if you'd just leave that part out." He passed the miniser a hundred dollar bill and walked away satisfied.
It is now the day of the wedding, and the bride and the groom have moved to the part of the ceremony where the vows are exchanged. When the time comes for the groom's vows, the pastor looks the young man in the eye and says:
"Will you promise to prostrate yourself before her, obey her every command and wish, serve her breakfast in bed every morning of your life and swear eternally before God and your lovely wife that you will not even look at another woman as long as you both shall live?"
The groom gulped and looked around, and said in a tiny voice, "Yes", then leaned towards the pastor and hissed: "I thought we had a deal."
Then the pastor put a hundred dollat bill into the groom's hand and whispered: "She made me a better offer."
