I’m engaged! *glee* Sorry, I’m still excited.
I came into work this morning and got to show everyone the ring and try to actually get work done instead of sitting around smiling at the ring all day %)
I spent a lot of time yesterday telling people, I guess I know more people than I thought. And of course most of them asked the same questions:
So, when’s the big day?
Not sure yet.
Right now we’re focusing on finding someone to do the ceremony. Since we want a traditional ceremony and neither of us are particularly religious we need to find someone who is flexible, understanding, and who we’re comfortable with to do it. A friend suggested speaking with a Quaker minister because they are flexible in such situations. But we’ll see, pretty much all our other plans depend on this (what sort of place he will preform ceremonies in, if he’s willing to drive a bit to marry us…).
I’m an ordained minister in $strange_church, can I marry you two?
No %P
Am I invited?
Probably not. We’re thinking of having a very small ceremony, quite possibly confined to us, the minister, and two witnesses (best man and maid of honor).
Will you have a reception for everyone who wants to come?
I highly doubt it.
Pictures then?
Absolutely. We’ll have a professional photographer at the wedding. The pictures will be all over my website and we’ll have lots of hard copies for ourselves, family and close friends.
Have you stopped smiling yet?
No! *grinning*
