My wife and I were completely shocked when we were kicked out of my friend Tom’s wedding—just for ordering pizza after the buffet ran out of food. What started as a drunken idea to feed ourselves quickly spiraled into a whirlwind of drama that left us questioning both our actions and our friendships.
We had been looking forward to Tom and Linda’s wedding for months. It was an intimate affair with around 70 guests, mostly family. The atmosphere was full of love, and the decorations were stunning.
“Look at how beautiful everything is,” my wife, Sarah, said, admiring the décor.
“Yeah, they really outdid themselves,” I agreed. “Tom and Linda look so happy.”
The day was going smoothly, and we found ourselves seated at a table with friendly strangers. We quickly hit it off with the couple next to us, Jane and Bob, and enjoyed a few drinks while waiting for the food to be served.
As the ceremony ended and we returned to our seats, the emcee announced that the buffet would open, calling tables one by one, starting with family. It made sense—family first, we thought—but as we watched the family tables load up their plates, we began to worry.
“They’re really piling on the food,” Sarah whispered to me.
“I know,” I replied, feeling my stomach grumble. “I hope there’s enough for everyone.”
But by the time our table was called, the buffet was nearly empty. We managed to scrape together a few leftovers—just enough to make it through a couple of bites. Our tablemates weren’t pleased either.
“This can’t be all that’s left,” Jane muttered, staring at her empty plate in disbelief.
Bob, frustrated, shook his head. “Ridiculous! I’m still starving!”
