I have really really absurdly big news for everyone. There is a chance that Sarah and I may actually
and theeeen rainbows and sparkle stars will shoot from the sky and most likely Suri Cruise will float down on a cloud and place tiaras on our heads when this happens. It will be that awesome.
For those of you unaware, Sarah is my bloggy bestie, mostly because she understands that appearances are what counts, we both are jews hidden in catholic bodies and usually hate everyone who disagrees with us. So now you’re saying, MODG this is fantastic. What can I do to help? I’m glad you asked.
I asked (told) Sarah that I better be invited to her wedding in October and she thought this was a smashing idea. The only challenge is convincing her fiance, S, that this is the best idea he ever heard. (better than marrying Sarah). S can be a pill about internet strangers in general (which I don’t get..how to catch a predator really shows what a world wide web of friends is out there waiting for you), according to Sarah, so this may be a challenge. So I decided to present to S why B and I are the best wedding guests ever.
Dear S,
Hi! How are things? I’m fine, thanks for asking. I bet you never thought that your fiance’s internet friend would be petitioning for an invite to your wedding, but you’re marrying Sarah so maybe you did. First you should know that B and I are professional wedding guests. We have successfully attended over 15 weddings as a pair and have only had one incident where I left him stranded there on accidental purpose. Otherwise, perfection. I am presenting to you in visual form, why B and I should attend your wedding.
Reason 3) We are not lame.
So in conclusion, S, it would make a lot of sense to invite me and B to your wedding. We’re probably just going to show up anyway so lets just make it formal already.
PS. B and I are open to all wedding invites from anyone at any time.
Thanks.
Hearts for always.
MODG
So back to how you as readers can help: Please leave in the comments how you fully agree that B and I should be invited to S and Sarah’s wedding in Houston. If you disagree, go away.
The internet psychic says you would like this too:
Hi I’m MODG. But you can call me MODG. You say it like Modg, like a Grandma name. Not like M.O.D.G. That’s a lot of syllables and I don’t have that kind of time.

I'm thinking about getting married again JUST so I can invite you. Because we could do the double jointed elbow thing together and freak everyone the eff out.
TOTALLY worth the trouble of planning a second wedding.
P.S. I don't live at blogger anymore.
http://saraplayshouse.com
For real.
If I ever get married I would TOTALLY invite you. I take it you don't mind coming to Scotland . . .
Now just need to find a MAN!
Who wouldn't want you at their wedding. Come on, S. Does this look like an Internet couple who'll turn into a nightmare?
If I had only known…I would have invited you to mine. S should totally allow you to go to Sarah's big day.
OMG I really hope you get the invite! And if someone could POSSIBLY turn down a presentation like THAT,bc it was truly amazing, they don't deserve the sanctity of marriage.
Instead of wedding crashers you could totally be hired out as wedding SMASHERS – thus making all weddings a SMASH HIT! I like this. I like it a lot!
you've definitely proved that you could hang at my wedding…
B looks like he's gonna fall over in that speech pic….too many fancy plastic glasses of wine?
You know where I stand on the issue. No matter what S says, you and B both are invited in my heart.
YOU are a lot of fun!
Invitation request approved.
I'm guessing. I mean, who wouldn't approve after all of that?
Clearly you are professionals on many levels. Blending, looking good and getting the party started all at the same time is not an easy task.
PS. Love the beer in the cell trick too!
I just realized you said Sarah's wedding is in HOUSTON. This is an excellent idea. I happen to live in Houston. Well, actually no. I now live north of Houston on the lake. But it's all the same. I would totally stalk you if you came to Houston.
I definitely think that you and B should be invited…if for nothing more than the hilarity which will undoubtedly ensue…the end.
~WM
Damn it, I would have loved to have had you at my wedding last year. I could arrange my divorce to get married again.
I'm with the others – I want to get married just to have you at the wedding. How are you at matchmaking?
The beer app on B's iphone will totally sell him on inviting you guys….totally.
Of course you should be invited, it would be foolish for him to think otherwise.
If you'd only included a photo of you two doing the Macarena, you could have TOTALLY sealed the deal.
well, duh. of course you should be invited. s would be standing in the way of all that is natural and good if he didn't let you attend. and really, does S want all of us pissed off?
also, if you haven't heard yet, i am getting married in sept of 2011 (no, he hasn't proposed, but i have let him know this is occurring), and meredith over at (flash)pasteurized, and monique the surferwife are both invited- so i figured i would let you know that you and B would more than welcome at my wedding as well.
I've been on the S & A meeting bandwagon for a few months now!
I think it's a FABULOUS idea!
P.S. I'm not even engaged or even to that thought of being engaged, but you and B are already invited to mine! =) Is Virginia to far?
Too Funny. Love all the pics. I think you going to Sarahs is a great idea. PS when I renew my vows, it will be on the beach…and you will be there my friend.
Ho-ly shit. I have that exact same dress as you in the picture where you show you're double jointed. I only wear it to weddings. It's like we're the same person!
You're invited to my wedding. We aren't engaged yet. But you'll be the first person on my guest list.
This post was awesome…S would be crazy not to invite you two!
If S doesn't agree to inviting you, maybe Sarah should rethink this whole wedding thing. I mean, is S really the guy for her if he doesn't allow her friends to attend the wedding?
You are invited to my wedding. In 14 years or whenever it is.
You forgot to inform S of your rapist's wit. That makes you a shoo in.
He's crazy not to try and start making Sarah happy now. This isn't HIS wedding day.
Just looking at the pictures- I have come to the conclusion that you and B would make great guest at Sarah's wedding. Her future husband shouldn't be weirded out by a couple of internet friends showing up for their big day- he should be honored!!
I mean, I'm not even your internet bestie and I want to invite you to my wedding in May… you two are the kind of people that are needed at a wedding! I'm just sayin'
Haha! Love this post! When hubs and I renew our vows…you are getting an invite!!!
Have a great day!
xo
Blair
Wow. If I were not already married I would SO invite you to the wedding.
Maybe you need to come to Minneapolis for our tenth wedding anniversary this year – we will have open bar.
Based on the pictures, you two are needed at any formal affair. Tell S to get on the bandwagon already.
I think one of the biggest reason's has been looked over.
Surely, this momentous event would be something that could be good for at least two weeks worth of blog bs. And thats what we all look forward to and need to make it through our boring days. So tell S that all 400+ of your followers and however many Sarah has need this to happen so that we won't kill ourselves of the boredom that is our daily reality. He is actually saving lives here!!!!
We must be on the same wavelength. I blogged about meeting internet friends yesterday. In fact I am flying out in Feb just to do that.
Just show up anyway.
If I was to get married AGAIN, I would definitely invite you! I think they would be crazy not too!!
Whenever I find the guy and get married, you are on my list. Best guests ever; I strive to be you at weddings. I have two back to back weekends to work on it, it's wedding season in my area.
Screw Sarah come to MY wedding! haha.
You should DEFINITELY be invited. For sure.
p.s. I can also do the double-jointed arm trick. It grosses my boyfriend out, so I do it as often as possible, of course.
this was hysterical!
looks are what matter and girl, you got some good ones!
i am sold! hope S is too.
You've got some really solid arguments there. How about throwing in a threat for good measure? Like maybe if you don't get an official invite then ALL of us will crash. Just think of the fun we'd have!
PLEASEEEE let MODG go to the wedding!!!! She would be FAB
This is the greatest idea EVER. I am absolutely positive there will be at leastone “internet stranger” at my wedding, whenever that may be…
Haha if S says no he's A) probably never going to have sex with Sarah again and B) going to get an influx of angry hate mail from at least 42 people.
He's toast.
I am trying to talk the hubs into renewing in Vegas so if he goes for it having “internet stranger” there would be so fitting,lol
I vote you are invited! Bc random people on the Internet get votes on things like who gets to be a wedding guest at other random people on the Internet's weddings.
It is in the blogger bylaws.
Love your black dress! You and B look hot!
Oh my gawd, you are freakin' hilarious! Okay, I've been married for 11 years but I'm thinking that maybe I should re-marry just so I can invite you and B! You said you've been to Oregon for a wedding, so hey, just come on back!
Sounds like you guys are awesome wedding guests. You think we can fly you here to Asia? lol. if I was a bride I would like to be thrown up to the air like that. Awesome.
Done & Done!!! That's reason enough…i mean you just put it all out there for the world to see and if he doesn't invite you…well…there are many people in EVERY state that will hear about this.
totally – i am actually shocked sarah even cares what her fiance thinks – i never did.
she'll snap out of it
Haha great post and love that yellow dress.
I think all that's left is- you rest your case.
OMG you guys look like such fun
I might have to redo my vows just so you & the hubs can come 
Wonderful post you made my laugh once again.
XOXO
i thought you were going to say you were preggers….but i think you made your case!
If I didn't think so before, this post convinced me! Get invited to the wedding already and let the good times commence!
hahahahah this is hilarious!
keep us updated about what S says
If I ever get married again, you two are definately invited. You're both prettier than any of my friends
Oh my. S, you would be a complete idiot to pass up this couple. And your wedding might suck without them. PLUS … saying no to your wife regarding invites? BAD idea. It is her show, dude.
I am lol'ing at my desk right now…
you TOTALLTY will get an invite. to this wedding…and MANY MANY more after this post.
you've convinced me!
I'm totally double jointed in my elbows, hand to Jesus.
I think if Sarah's husband doesn't find this oh so charming, he is obviously not the man for her.
Seriously, get there, S.
How could he possibly deny this? You both look like fun. AND you carry an emergency kit!? If you are free at the end of February, M and I are getting married in the Caribbean and there will be vodka and probably lots of tropical drinks with parasols in them too.
Seriously S….how is there even a question? Think of the hilarity that will ensue from letting this chicka and her fella attend your soiree. Plus…TEARS…the dude can cry on command.
well i think this post pretty much speaks for itself but if you need to me to write a letter of recommendation i'm so down!! i'll even put a suri watermark on it. legit.
giiiirl you are gorgeous! and those are the greatest pics!
S will come around… this is, after all, SARAH'S day. he's a smart, kind guy. he'll recognize that. maybe you can begin a petition?
I think Sarah should just invite you and then be all like, “Surprise! S, this is my gift to yoooooou!” when you and B show up.
Who wouldn't want Cole Hamels at their wedding?
Always the wedding guest, never the bridesmaid? You have to have some pics of you in lime green taffeta somewhere, MODG. Bust 'em out.
was that picture on the bridge from the wedding you went to in oregon?
i'm from oregon, and it looks like a place i checked out called camp colton….just curious. if so, it really is in the woods. i didn't end up getting married there because it was way too far out in the boonies.
Yes Lauren it is Camp Colton! Great eye! Impressive.
Tell Sarah to cowboy up and invite y'all on the sly. Then she can just get S really, really drunk and casually mention the new invitees to him while propositioning him with a late night taquito.
This tactic WORKS. The proof is in my wedding photos where my 3 CT girls and their husbands are doing their part to make a dent in the champagne bar.
Omg… you have to go to her wedding! YOU HAVE TO GO!
Ha – you make a great case for being the best wedding guests EVER!!! He should probably ask to include you in the wedding party at this point.
All you're missing are some killer dance moves. Husby rocks at the slide and spin. Maybe he can show B how to do it…
haha…! I've done something similar to this! I had a best internet forum buddy, with whom I interchanged e-mails and post for about 6 months. We lived in San Jose, CA for two years.
She and her husband were going to go on a vacation to San Francisco area. He works for Intel, so he was going to be doing a lot of stuff for them in San Jose, as well. I told her that they didn't have to pay for a hotel and they could stay in our apartment. She totally loved the idea. Hubby is the type that believes taht people who have social type network accounts are total losers and dont' have a real life, so he totally said NO.
My friend and I were totally bummed. I begged and begged. He finally caved in, but wasn't very happy.
My friend and her hsuband show up and she's everything she was online!! It was so great!! Hubby and her husband clicked big time!! Since they both work in the same industry (they're both electronic engineers), they even keep in touch on what's going on, job wise.
S, you will NOT regret it. Now, we have a new couple friends that live in Oregon whom we visit once in a while! Give it a chance, you will never know where real friendship might come up from.
Plus, look at them, they're a gorgeous couple!! =D
You probably could have helped out at my wedding, when one of my husband's friends decided that all the guys should serenade me with that song from Top Gun. And they all crowded around me and made me sit on a chair and then the DJ didn't have the song. But we were already in position and who was the only one who knew the words? Me. I serenaded my own damn self. I could have used some back-up from a hottie in a black dress!
S, these things happen. Send 'em an invite!!!
I would definitely invite you to my wedding!
))
have a sweet day, xoxo
You should totally go the wedding!
Seriously. After this how could he not invite you?!
This is hysterical…yet extremely and 100% convincing! Sarah you just HAVE to invite them…they are like the total perfect package! What a perfect way to meet!
really how can B turn down this proposition? he must be crazy if he does.
Haha, you guys seem like so much fun. That's awesome you might get to meet your blog bestie! I hope it all works out! You, of course, will have to post about it.
you are without a doubt the most awesomest wedding guest around. here's hoping you get to go!!!
[p.s. you could always crash. justsayin.]
Yes I fully agree that you should go. AND THEN you should BOTH come to my wedding! Party on Wayne. Party on Garth.
You sold me!! You def. should be invited and you can come to my anniv. party!!
Ok, so you and B are officially invited to my wedding reception. Pencil in, no wait, pen in late March in Alabama.
Oh meeeen. I didn't wanna get married until I saw this.. Damn you. Now I have to save for a cool wedding so I can have MODG and B there…
>.<
I'm just sad my wedding has happened already and I couldn't invite you. And, it was in Houston.
So, you totally get my vote!
I might just get married again JUST so I can invite you to my wedding… and no worries, you won't have to convince Mr. Newlywed Giggles because it's MY wedding. LOL
You guys do blend extremely well! Have you considered marketing your services as professional wedding guests? I definitely could have used you to distill some of the crazy in my family.
What an great post.
My wife and I have two couples that were friends with, were alot like you described and were recently at a weekend long wedding ~ no kids.
We had great fun, so much so that we decided as a joke we should plan “fake weddings,” send out invites, etc, to trick the parents into watching the kids and get away!
Shhhh don't tell!
This is a no-brainer; of course you'll attend!
By the way, you and B are HAWT!
I'd invite you both just so that I can be sure to have pretty people in the photos. After all, you have them for a lifetime…no one wants to look at the uglies, right?
Hahaha… Renee you crack me up! That's right, everyone wants pretty people in the photos!
Sarah you need to know that a Jewish woman twists her man around her little finger. He may be the head, but she is the neck, and trust me, the head twists whichever way the neck wants. It's lame, I know. My mom told me this at my engagement party.
So then I should expect you and B's attendance at Me and Big Man's wedding!
August 12th, 2011, Pennsylvania!!
Be there or be square! : )
I need your address so I can add you to the list….
This post is too funny! And, you know I definitely think Sarah should invite you guys!
I already got married and in Greece, but you would totally be invited@
Sooooo, my sister’s getting married in Charleston on 4th of July weekend….open bar….on the beach…you already said you like the south! you are officially invited. We’ve both been hooked on your blog, but this is the 1st comment, sorry!
If you think we are joking, WE’RE NOT! Yegi just did the most amazing maid of honor thing ever and invited you!!! I agree its creepy…but whatever…you have to come – with B and baby G in tow. I got Yegi hooked to your blog cause you remind us of us, but she is sooo annoying and started at your oldest blog and wont fast forward to now. I wish she would though, cause she had a baby last January and went through some of the same things you are going through now (one time I went to her fridge to grab something and she had a box of cheez its in there) – you do some crazy stuff when you are taking care of 10 lbs of whinyness. Things get better real fast though, dont worry…and I heard going to a wedding in Charleston on July 2nd usually helps too…..
