Your listening position kept changing (well, yours, on the way out not in).

I wonder what was going through the bride's mind as she passed the critical distance. "The sound is becoming much clearer with each step. The soundstage is broadening. I must be within the critical distance. No, wait, I'm hyper-ventilating.":)

And as the father of the bride crossed that threshold, he said to himself, "When they said 'string-quartet music,' I never imagined I would be paying for four real live musicians! Sheesh!"

Good ones!In this case, truth is funnier than fiction.
What was actually going thru the bride's head at that moment was:"I can't believe I've kept the bishop waiting 45 minutes..."
What was going thru my father-in-law's head had little to do with the cost of the quartet.
Fortunately, he had raised a violist who had married a violinist; they had many musician friends, and the quartet was part of their gift to us. Our guests received quite the concert while waiting.
I, on the other hand, had spent the time prior to the scheduled start of the wedding being told funny stories by the bishop. These stories revolved around stuff that had happened at previous weddings, like the time the bride was very, very late, and what he had done. These stories were funny when people were just arriving.
The whole day really was a comedy of errors in many ways (there is much more to the story, like the Limo Driver From Hell who was the cause of all the delay). But we weathered it together, and twenty-six years later, we're still happily married.
And *everyone* remembers *our* wedding. :)
Cerebrate!
