a bit of a rugby rant

When you come to Paris to get married, what’s the Money Shot? Couple Kissing in Front of Eiffel Tower, right? Money Shot does NOT include aRugby Supporters giant inflatable rugby ball! Paris is currently hosting the World Cup of Rugby. Now, I don’t know much about rugby (except that I LUVS me some All Blacks when they do that Haka dance), but judging by the supporters’, um…enthusiasm, I’m assuming it’s a pretty big deal. What I DO know is that there is a giant inflatable rugby ball hanging off the Eiffel Tower, and it has GOT to COME DOWN! While most of my guy clients have found it “kinda cool”, the brides (understandably) have not. I’ve spent a nice chunk of this past week re-arranging itineraries around that blasted ball. Monsieur Delanoë, I have one question for you- when is it coming down??

    LOL. Now that is funny. You’re right…not exactly what I would have dreamed about as a backdrop to my romantic wedding pics.

    HA! Now, personally that wouldn’t kill me … I’m not a huge fan of La Tour Eiffel in the first place .. but it is amusing! And try explaining that to a couple that flew 4000 miles (sorry, I made that up out of my head) to get that shot. Next you’ll have to let on that the government pays for rap artists to develop their talent!

    I would hazard a guess that there are more tourists in town for the rugby world cup than there are for weddings so tant pis I guess!
