And you thought we were taking some liberties with wedding tradition.
Consider the case of George "Bubba" Mathis and Pamela Christian, two 23-year-olds who work together at the same Waffle House off the same highway in Georgia. Bubba (I shit you not, that's his real nickname) married Pamela in the parking lot of their Waffle House because it was too much trouble figuring out how to arrange their work schedules to make time for a more typical journey down the aisle.
Waffle House holds a special place in our relationship, too, as it is our go-to spot for coffee and cholesterol whenever we take our bi-annual Southern roadtrips. Waffle House has some of the most delectable hash browns man has ever made, and despite the carbon monoxide from the neighboring highway, it has a quaint charm. For the uninitiated, the details to this wedding are all you'll ever need to know about Waffle House.
Nearly all the wedding pictures on the slideshow (scroll down here) include a decked-out bridesmaid with a Newport 100 dropping out of her mouth. The trail of cans attached to the back of the "Just Married" car includes at least one Keystone Light.
Yes, we are getting married at the house where Betsy Ross stitched the first American flag. But these guys? True, blue Americans.

that is amazing...! totally made my day!
Oh, dear me, Waffle House. That is amazing and terrifying all at once.
The best picture in the slideshow is the "you may now kiss the bride" shot and one of their kids is picking it's nose.
Or the rings displayed in the serving of waffles.
I like how these people own it, though.
