The Wedding

I'm getting married!

Yes that's right, somebody wants to spend the rest of their life with not just me, but a whole house full of bugs... Hard to believe!

But as Mrs. Jim is just as keen on creepy crawlies I suppose it's not too much of a hardship, in fact we (honestly, both of us, not just me) want to make bugs part of the wedding. But how?

Idea #1 - Tarantula-based petting zoo for the wedding reception, downside: it may reduce the number of guests willing to come.

Idea #2 - insect based wedding outfits


Downside: prohibitive cost of bespoke mantis headdress

Idea #3 - Roast goliath birdeating tarantulas for the meal



Downside: Waaaaaah! Poor ickle spiders don't be so MEAN!

Idea #4 - Praying mantis table ornaments - now we're onto something!

So at our wedding the bugs will be dinner guests, but of the non-edible kind. Instead there will be a different species of mantis on each of the 12 tables, and the table itself will be named after the Latin name of the mantis. A perfect conversation piece during the meal!

Any suggestions for types of Mantis of other exciting bug-themed wedding ideas are welcome in the comments below.
