During the wedding rehearsal, the groom, all slick and happy, approached the preacher.
“Preacher, I’ll give you $1000 if you change the wedding vows. I need you to leave out the part that says I’m supposed to ‘love, honor and obey.’ Oh, and leave out the ‘be faithful to her forever,’ too. I don’t make promises I don’t have any intention of keeping.” Then, he winked, passed the minister 10 – $100 bills and walked away.
On the day of the wedding, when it came time for the groom’s vows, the preacher locked eyes with the slick, young man and said: “Will you promise to obey her every command, make her coffee every morning, shower her with jewelry every Christmas, Valentine’s Day and birthday, and swear eternally before God that you will not ever 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, he leaned toward the pastor and hissed, “I thought we had a deal.”
The preacher put 10 – $100 bills into the groom’s hand and whispered, “She made me a better offer.”
Yes… It’s a Classic Joke!
