We got our wedding rings today! They're beautiful, and by some miracle, the one in the store actually fit me perfectly so I got to take it home today - Linders, on the other hand, has rather massive hands - so his needs to be sent away to be sized... but, the rings are paid for!
We are edging ever closer to actually having this thing planned and ready!

Rather nice ones too. I've been partial to white gold for a while. I was technically able to put mine on, but I could not bend that finger afterwards. Anyhoo, they are pretty classy and simple. Something that is a benefit in my line of work as I can't have crevices or things for dirt or crud to get caught in, else I would not be able to wear it at work.

Unfortunately the weather forecast for Saturday is It's been shifting around all week though and the storm that might cause that is not fully tracked yet. It's not looking good weather wise and it could get mighty crowded in that house if we can't eat outdoors.

The wedding is tomorrow - good lord, where did the time go? - and I am hoping and praying that the weather looks like this: Instead of this: The weather in our city is so unpredictable - today is so far a beautiful day - cool crisp air, but so bright and sunny and with the promise of being very warm later. However - it has been known to be like this in the morning and be a torrential downpour with Black Clouds (but no Silver Linings - sorry DreamTheater ) in the afternoon. And just because it's lovely one day it doesn't mean it'll be the same the next day. But here's hoping... * raises a glass in entreaty to the Weather Gods for benevolence* We can theoretically have the wedding inside the house, it is a large-ish house and there's not a massive number of guests - but it'd be a bit crowded. Tight squeeze, and all.

Just got back.
well the concerns about the weather were largely unfounded. It was overcast and ever so slightly gusty but the rain held off until well after the dinner. Lily looked beautiful and I managed to not make an ass of myself. We had a decent turnout but not everyone was able to make it. The food was good and the drink plentiful.
Our justice of the peace kept things moving quickly but with a great personal touch and just a hint of humor.
We still have the gifts to sort through tomorrow and the car rental to return on Monday. After that the work associated with this event is over and we can both look forward to a couple of weeks of slacking off.
We'll have some pictures to post in just a few days.

It was a beautiful day... it was amazing... the Justice of the Peace was awesome; he's a good friend of my parents' and he did a fantastic job today... Linders was gorgeous as usual... and I was amazed that the stylist at the salon was able to make my incredibly straight and disobedient hair actually look good in an up-do with curls and tiny semi-hidden braids... and I will admit, I was relatively pretty today... so thee is proof that, for ONE day, I can look good! Anyway, I have a few pictures that my friend texted to me, these are not the 'professional' pictures that my cousin / photographer took but these are a few somewhat candid shots. More professionally taken photos to come, once I get them from my cousin...

Here's a new picture - this one is a "Preview Pic" sent to me from my cousin who was our photographer - so this is one of the "unedited Originals": And this is the Sand Ceremony we did: It was such a wonderful day...
