Destination Weddings

Whenever someone announces their intention to have a destination wedding I always think that it's statistically likely that one of their guests will die in a plane crash on the way there. This is, of course, untrue, especially considering that there have been no major airline crashes in the last four years. But I still think, "All these people...all these flights...at least one of them is going to crash." And then the wedding happens, I spend a few hours with the open bar and find a cigar and a place to look over the crowd, and while reflecting on what a good time I'm having and how great it is to see so many friends in the same place, I'll think, "There's no way all of these people are going to make it home in one piece."
