I read an article on Equally Wed the other day that was talking about a women who’s son came out to her several years ago. It was about her struggle with her beliefs and her love for her son. In the end, love overcame. She now offers her motherly support to others in the LGBT community who don’t have a parent at their wedding.

I googled “Rent a Best-man” and was very surprised. There were 3 links at the top from different companies. The most legitimate looking websites are for people in the UK unfortunately, but I did find one that has “friends” in the Houston area. Rent-a-friend
Apparently in Japan and Koria, it’s not unusual for someone to hire wedding guests. It had something to do with the more massive a wedding, the more prestigious. I’ve found several articles about this (though no websites for the companies).
A friend was telling me (as I was writing this article) that you can hire people to cry at funerals… What!? That’s crazy.
So I guess, you can rent anything you put your imagination to. I think if I were to hire wedding guest, I would hire a comedian to give a wedding toast. I would love to have a professional stand-up wedding toast that made my guests pee their pants. My cousin’s working to become a professional comedian, I bet he would do it… for a price. 😉
What are your thoughts? Would you (or have you) ever hire someone to attend your wedding (other than the usual professionals).
