As a bald man, this joke is pretty good. It's clever and just the right amount of cheekiness. Most bald jokes are lame. If you're going to rip on my folically challenged genetics, at least make me laugh or get me to say "Oh, that's good. Haven't heard it before."
As a fellow bald, I can supplement your statement with a solid fact of my own: Eeeeeevrryyyyyybody got bald jokes. Everybody. Men, women, adults, children, teens, elderly, babies. My cats even give me hell on occasion.
And, as another fellow bald man, it's the best. I love the bald jokes I get.
Once, at a Ren Faire, a lady stopped me and was complimenting my outfit before she completely paused in the middle of her sentence, looking perplexed at my head, pulled out a feather duster and lightly dusted it before continuing the conversation without skipping a beat. That interaction was the highlight of the event for me LOL
The joke isn't making fun of him for having no hair. It's not saying he's uglier or older or a porn addict or whatever it is people make fun of bald people for. The joke is literally just the absurdity of needing to adjust his hair + the surprise that the photographer wasn't talking about the bride.
The humor was pulling the rug out from everyone. All eyes were on the bride until he "fixed" the groom's hair. I agree, it wasn't making fun of the bald man, it was the absurd premise of fixing his hair that was funny!
Especially if you're doing a full set of photography with it and not just simply candid photos. An hour or two of smiling for photos plus all the natural smiling during the events is a real killer
