    Default It's Friday, and That Means I'm Getting Married Tomorrow

    Holy crap, guys, I can hardly believe it's happening so soon.

    Quick rundown:

    We're having a handfasting and my aunt is going to be the officiant. Small wedding with close friends and family. Very excited for the cake because it will look like stacked books and be beautiful, with an open book top looking like pages out of an illuminated manuscript with a short poem I wrote in Old English (and a facing page translation). Also, our friend will be playing Don't Stop Me Now when I walk down the aisle.

    Hard to believe only a year and a half has passed since we got engaged.

    Congratulations, it's always amazing when a huge event in your life happens. I can't say I've experienced something quite the same, but I wish you happiness and joy ever after.

    It's nice to get married by family isn't it? My cousin married my husband and I (well, he did most of it, and an old teacher of mine/friend of my mother's did part as well, we got married in an Anglican church and a requirement of that was that we have an Anglican minister do at least part of the ceremony).

    I love the cake! That's awesome I want to see photos of this masterpiece!

    I don't have a picture of our cake online, but it was awesome... the cake itself was just a plain, two tiered circular job, but it had a castle on top and a knight and his lady made out of icing on the cakeboard, designed to look like an OoTS style drawing my husband made. It was my surprise to him, he didn't know what the cake looked like until the day. He was a happy boy.

    Having just been married September 1st let me give my congratulations as well as my condolences as it will simultaneously be the best and worst day of your entire life. You'll have a blast and it'll be great tying the knot, but you're also going to be busy, tired, hungry, and confused. Make sure you have a guest book in as conspicuous place as possible, because just a little over a month in I have no idea who was actually at my wedding without looking at some sort of reminder.

    Of course, I got married on a Saturday and if your Friday is like my Friday was you won't be touching the internet again until at least Monday so you probably won't even see this.

    Best wishes and best of luck.

    P.S.: If you do see this, make sure to eat whenever you get the opportunity! We had some bridesmaids nearly go down before the ceremony even started because they forgot to eat.

    So the song runs on, with shift and change,
    Through the years that have no name,
    And the late notes soar to a higher range,
    But the theme is still the same.
    Man's battle-cry and the guns' reply
    Blend in with the old, old rhyme
    That was traced in the score of the strata marks

    It appears I cannot escape the weddings this weekend, no matter what state I manage to avoid going to.

    Have a good one. Best of luck. And remember, if you ever travel back in time, don't step on anything. It could hold horrible consequences for the future, the likes of which you could never imagine!

    I thought that the cake was a lie. That's why there's no spoon.

    There's no Spoon because he was eaten by werewolves.
    The cake may very well be a lie, though.


    Many congratulations, SaintRidley.
