Great shot Bob. I've seen a lot of close ups of table shots before a wedding or event to capture settings or flowers but I have not seen a good shot that did what you did. It definitely captures that this will be a big event yet the photo is more artistic than documentary. A fish-eye with no composition could document the scope of the event but that is unlikely to be nearly as interesting as your composition.

In regards to the title...the napkin immediately to the right of the vase in the foreground looks like a squirrel facing me and begging with its tail in the air to the right of it. ...I should kick the drugs :) ...
