So I get a lady (and I use that term loosely) on the phone today asking about getting married on our private island. She says she has researched it and it seems perfect for her and her Fiance. She also mentions her son (from a previous marriage) is coming with them as witness. He is 17 years old.
In the course of conversation she mentions that they are very budget conscious. She asks me to price out the entire trip with air, transfers, resort, everything for 3 people in one room. I stop dead in the my tracks. "you mean your son in the same room with you on your honeymoon?"
Yes, she says. We are all very close and he won't mind sharing with us.
ummmmm, ok.
Once I give her the price, she asks me if it is safe for her son to sleep outside on the beach for a night or two if they wanted to kick him out.
Really? You want to take your teenage son with you on your Weddingmoon (as it is sometimes referred to in the industry), and you want to kick him out so he absolutely knows for sure the moment you two want to go at it? I'm disturbed, Highly. I feel dirty.
I would love to tell you that any part of this conversation is even slightly embellished. Sadly,  I cannot.
You just cannot make this stuff up!
