I'm getting hitched on Sunday (now with pics!)
Remember years ago (seems like) when I said I'd got engaged?
Yeah, me neither. But after about 2 years, the dude and I are finally getting married this Sunday. I'm not super nervous yet, but I'm getting there. Hopefully, things will go well. My family's huge and crazy (read: drunk) and his family is small and shy. Both families are Catholic, but my dude and I aren't so we decided to avoid the hassle and have a judge marry us, much to the chagrin of everyone else. Right now I keep wondering why we didn't just elope. My biggest fear is fainting at the alter in my uber-constricting torture device of a dress.
Just wanted to share this with you guys since some of you were here since the start of all this. I'll let you know how things turn out and post some pics (maybe ). Keep your fingers crossed for me, fellow 'Scrawlers!

Awesome, bluefooted! A toast to you and your partner!
Seriously though, nothing but the best wishes for you. May you both live as long as you wish and love as long as you live.
Wind to thy wings.

You clearly must be doing something right. I've never met a single happy couple who didn't say this before their wedding.Right now I keep wondering why we didn't just elope.

Wahoo! Congrats Bluefooted!
Don't worry about your dress i'm sure you look lovely, besides look on the bright side, there are stranger marital customs out there than a white dress - think whale-bone corsets, or gi-NOR-mous skirts or, just to be different, having to daub yourself in a combination of red mud and goose grease, just to name a few funny little traditions human beings have
I'm sure you'll have a great day, and i pray it will be the beginning of a good and lasting marriage *hugs*

*throws rice* (or would you prefer birdseed?)
No need for the eek smilie, I'm sure everything will be fine. It just seems like it will never come together. Relax and enjoy it. Best wishes for a long and happy marriage.

Congtats bluefooted! Heh, it has been a long time....
And as for wondering why you didn't just elope...back in the dark ages when my wedding date was creeping closer like some horrible stalker, my dad kept upping the offer for if we'd just save him all the trouble and torment and elope. And we would have been more than happy to, except for one small problem...I was memum's only daughter and she would have disembowelled all of us had we deprived her of the 'joy' of planning and attending the wedding. >< It all turned out lovely anyway...but that cash sure would have been nice....
Here's wishing you a wonderful day to begin a wonderful life together. (and I hope he likes reptile mating rituals too...)

BF, I hope that everything went well for you yesterday. By now, I also hope you're sitting on a beach somewhere, sipping a mai-tai with your new hubbie. After all the excitement (and just plain stress) of a wedding, a honeymoon is pretty much MANDATORY, IMHO.

Thanks for all the congrats! Sausage!!!! Things went well - no one got too drunk, everyone remembered their lines, and I didn't pass out. Yay!
Hey remember when I said I'd post pics? Well here they are I won't spam you guys with pics (we gave each table a camera so we have about 6000 wedding pics.
Anyway, here's the dress, which is the most important part. Those are my dress wranglers (sisters) back there, um... wrangling it:
Flower Toss! There was a bit of a brawl. I'm happy to say that my friend Meg beat that guy down:
My cousin's daughter wanted to have the garter:
We went on our honeymoon in Zion Nat'l Park, Utah. We've been there before, but it's so awesome we really wanted to go back. Also, I had to attend a conference on animal behavior 6 days after the wedding and Zion was on the way. Here's the old ball-and-chain on a rock in the narrows - that's where you hike in the river:
Conference wasn't so bad. It was at the Snowbird resort in Utah, so the area was very pretty. Unfortunately I had to spend most of the time indoors Here's the view from our room:
Honeymoon was followed by the ever tedious drive back to Indiana (with dogs) and then back to work. Anyway, we're now happily married, though living in different states - damn graduate school but we'll be together soon. Hooray!

You know, despite the fact that my wedding was a nice (and inexpensive) little Catholic ceremony that was all the more fun because we let family and friends handle all the stuff that professionals charge through the nose for, I was quite glad to have the wedding over with. Being married has proven to be far more fun than getting married. And I hope married life will prove to be that for you, as well.
Meddle not with the heartstrings of fans, for we are powerful and hold your pursestrings.

Wow, that's great, you looked gorgeous Bluefooted - but then brides generally do
hang in there with the living in the separate states, just remember there's only *counts on fingers* 4 going on 3 months left in the year! (that is if school ends in December in the US, i dunno... )
