From my friend Dylan’s wedding this past June… I guess I wasn’t smiling in this photo either, but the groom’s grin more than makes up for it. Hundreds more pics here.

That gay guy with his hand on his hip sure is smiling…
gay as in “happy?” 🙂
Ha that is the best man who married his college sweetheart ages ago. You guys are so mean!
Derek, i truly think ariana thinks gay means happy! From the picture, all the guys in that picture seem to be in their 30s! I bet someone in that pic likes some of that jungle fever! I bet you do!
Y’know I know you are just being playful Hamptons but I think that term is a bit … insulting maybe?
I found this definition of “jungle fever” on urbandictionary.com
no, I don’t think it is insulting at all. I will put the urbandictionary with a grain of salt. Ok, if jungle fever is deemed “politically incorrect”; let’s say derek needs some ebony! 🙂
the man must have married his college sweetie to cover up for being GAY. McGreevey asked his college sweatheart to marry him, too.
The one in the middle of the first picture is married?
(sigh)
Monday – the one standing next to me, second from left.
Besides Derek from the picture (being the hottest), I nominate the 4th and 5th to be potential hot ivories looking for luscious ebonies
Hamptons – you don’t think it’s offensive at all? Okay. Well, on a serious note: why do you think I need some “ebony.” There are a lot of things I’m looking for in a woman. I made a list not too long ago. Race really wasn’t on it at all.
Sorry to be all P.C. on you but my father’s job for along time had to do with desegregation issues in schools… racial stereotypes can be a bit pernicious, don’t you think?
Being bi-racial (tri or quad or whatever you may call it) and living in this day in age, I will never forget what happened in the past, however, it is pertinent to move on. Life is so much easier whether than dwelling on how your conversations maybe perceived as un-PC.
I commend your father’s efforts to desegregate the schools. But also, I’m sure that we are living a better life right now that we can be un-PC-like once in awhile.
Also, I highly doubt there is one person in this world is totally PC.
Scratch the list derek, what you need is some mixed ebony who instructs pilates at a gym and pursuing her masters in industrial psychology 😉
Ohhh … is the one smack in the middle of the first picture the groom?
Hit submit too soon …
I’ve dated some black guys, and I remember one that was totally caught up in the fact that I was white. It gets old quickly … a lot of things are more important to me than race.
Monday: No, as I said before, Dylan (the groom) is the guy standing next to me. Second from left. The one who is smiling.
Monday, that is very true. On a sidenote, interracial relationships are becoming more accepted/popular (thank god!) and I am all for it! Our values are so great that now we have numerous black/white and asian/white couples! It is amazing how society changes from time to time.
I don’t think Derek is being PC. I think it’s more that the idea of saying someone has ‘jungle fever’ just because they are dating someone of a diff race is a bit offensive. If used humorously it’s funny.
Hamptons, you are the ‘friend!’ Admit it! I think it’s cute that you have a crush on Derek.
Bad, bad Monday … I didn’t read all of the comments thoroughly, sorry. My point was that besides Derek’s obvious attractiveness, the one in the middle is also very hot. Welcome to http://www.ratetheweddinghotties.com
Hamptons, true about it being more acceptable … popular because it’s cool or something to date outside of your race … I don’t think so. And yes, Hamptons, tell us more about yourself…
monday, you find the guy with the grey/white pepper hair hot?
Reader, I was using the term in a joking way. Plus, why would you assume I have a crush on Derek? geez louise! 🙂
No, the guy with the dark hair, in the middle (#4 from either end) of the first picture, with his coat buttoned and his hands in front of him. I like his expression, and he looks confident. Yeah, he’s hot.
I just read Derek’s requirements, I can find PLENTY of candidates for him. It doesn’t need to be in new york. Now I have to pose the question, does Derek know that there are plenty of single women in Boston or Philly?
Call me crazy, but I don’t think Derek has trouble finding candidates.
ok, case closed- new topic and wishing derek the best!
There are single women and men everywhere, but meeting the right one is not always easy. And it’s hard to date in one town if ya live in another.
