8 years and 8 months later, we finally got married!

It was wonderful. Exactly what I wanted for my wedding day.

Congratulations to your significant other. Do they know how lucky they are to wed such a combination of grace, charm and intelligence? Make sure they know.

A small bit of advice to the freshly married;
don't go to bed angry, don't leave things unresolved, don't leverage past conflicts to make someone feel bad, don't pass on a chance to say 'I love you' and no, there wont always be enough time later, make time for each other now.


It's been working pretty well for me these past 15 years. Congrats.

:snoopy: Congrats! :snoopy: May happiness grace your marriage.

Two items: 1. If you're arguing, check to see if the problem is semantic. About a year into our marriage, we figured out that 90% of our arguments were really each of us saying the same thing and using different words to say it. 2. Keep a sense of humor.

Blessings,

Siri Kirpal

Wait...scratch that...your yesterday was referring to Saturday, not Sunday. Well...bad weather means good luck, doesn't it? (-:

The weather was much better than expected. We had a late morning wedding at city hall. It didn't rain during the hour we were doing pictures, and there was even a little sun. Didn't start pouring until near the end of the reception. And somehow the temperature was such that I wasn't cold in a sleeveless dress and he wasn't hot in a suit. Honestly, I hadn't been aware that those conditions even overlapped.
