How To Survive a Bad Table At a Wedding

Embrace your theatrical side. If you’ve ever wanted to try out that Australian accent, or fake a career in the music industry, or change your name to “Viper,” now’s the time.

There’s nothing wrong with a little table-hopping. Visit your friends across the dance floor frequently, and keep them updated with the best instances of weirdness from your table.

If you’re over 21, a well-timed cocktail may put you in a better mood. If nothing else, it’ll give you an excuse to escape your table, visit the bar, and meet that cute bartender.

The guy sitting next to you has been talking your ear off since the best man’s toast. Make it clear that you don’t speak his language.

Are you mildly allergic to the cake? Does restless leg syndrome force you to keep moving? Pick an ailment, and stick with it.
