My parents honeymooned in Asbury Park. Not that they wanted to. At their wedding (during the war), one of the guests stole my fathers cash and gas rationing stamps (nice guest). They were suppose to drive to Virginia Beach. My grandfather handed them a wad of cash and Asbury was as far as they could go from Jersey City. A sad beginning, but they had four kids and were married for almost 50 years before Dad departed for the heavens.
My jaw hit the floor. Did they ever discover who the guest was.
I remember hearing a similar story of how a bride and groom had thousands of dollars stolen at their reception. It was only after they were viewing the wedding video weeks later that they saw one of their parents making off with the cash.
