The old Tommy Steele song (from Half a Sixpence in 1963) goes like this:
“All lined up in a wedding group
‘Ere we are for a photograph
We’re all dressed up in a morning suit
All trying hard not to laugh
Since the early caveman in his fur
Took a trip to Gretna Green
There’s always been a photographer
To record the ‘appy scene…
‘Old it, flash, bang, wallop, what a picture
What a picture, what a photograph
Poor old soul, blimey, what a joke
Hat blown off in a cloud of smoke
Clap ‘ands, stamp yer feet
Bangin’ on the big bass drum
What a picture, what a picture
Um-tiddly-um-pum-um-pum-pum
Stick it in your fam’ly album!”
Longtime local Monrovian Franchie San Pedro wed fiancée Heather Forsha under the light of the Blue Moon on July 31st in an epic, first-ever Flash Mob Wedding in Old Town Monrovia. Hundreds turned out to cheer them on into their new life together.
The so called ‘Flash Mob wedding’ on Friday was held at the Friday night street fair. Merengue Bakery wheeled down a wedding cake for the happy couple. Flash Bang Wallop, what a picture.
